I'm going, I just don't know when yet. My cousin and a friend are coming to town for it, it depends on their schedules.

I'll probably be there at some point. It will probably be on a weekend since I get paid to teach children during the week. I don't like going when it's really busy though. Maybe we'll have a snow day or something.

Either the 14th and/or 15th for the Industry days, anyone else down there then?

I'm there Thursday the 15th to meet with customers. It will be my first time so looking forward to it! On the bright side we apparently have a swanky booth with mixologists making cocktails...

Sounds like we need to meet 84FSP. I'll be at a swanky supplier booth tomorrow afternoon to discuss machines that injection mold tons of thermoplastic materials.

Went down this afternoon. If anything was surprising it was the amount of crowds for industry days. I can't remember it ever being as crowded even after the recovery from the unnamed depression. No pics that haven't already been posted at multiple sites with better cameras but I did find that the Ford engine display had their 3 cyl 1 liter engine and it has exhaust on the driver side if mounted longtitudinaly which may make for an interesting Miata transplant. Light,short,smooth with plenty of power and torque potential while moving weight rearward off the front end.
