EDIT. So you can skip the first page. The plan is to meet at the Griffin Claw brew pub in Birmingham 6:00pm Tuesday March 10th.
Griffin Claw is at 575 S Eton St, Birmingham, MI 48009
It's a while since we've had a SE Michigan meet up. I kept promising people I would post and organize one late last year but I never did.
So how about it guys (& gals?). What about next week sometime, or if that's too soon the week after?
Two proposals. First we just meet at a bar, have a few drinks some food and a general BS session. Second, similar to the first, but after the libations and BS we could catch the movie 'Focus' It's got Indy car racing dubbed with high revving NA engine sounds. It's got Margot Robbie as the leading lady, and after seeing all of her in the Wolf of Wall Street I'll go and watch anything she's in it's also got Will Smith which I'm reliably informed by my straight female and gay make friends is almost equal opportunity eye candy for them.
So, royal Oak offers plenty of good bars and the Emagine theater, or if we want to take pity on those poor souls who don't live close to the center of action we could head out to Novi, meet at the Tilted Kilt then hit the Emagine there instead.
I vote for either Tuesday the 10th, or Tuesday the 17th.
Thoughts? In? Out? Thompson you're a dumb ass?
I'm in for food and drink. No interest in going to the movies with a bunch of guys.
Fair enough.
I take it that from Dexter you're more interested in a Novi meet up than a Royal Oak / Birmingham meet up?
Doesn't really matter, Adrian.
I could be convinced to meet somewhere. I bounce between Adrian and Rochester these days. What about karting at JDs in Novi?
In for the meetup, but not really interested in that flick. I don't think the racing is a big part of it.
I may be able to make it. Won't know for another day or two to be sure.
Also, there is a small swap meet in Waterford at the CAI building on the 14th. Mainly domestic V8 stuff but who knows what you may find handy. 8am-2pm.
I don't recommend the 17th unless you want to fight the St. Paddys day crowds.
In reply to Gearheadotaku:
Where do I find details on that swap meet,Jeff?
What time are we thinking? I might be able to make it, especially if it's a little later in the evening.
Waterford Recreation Center (CAI BUILDING) 5640 Williams Lake Road, between Airport Road and Dixie Hwy.
I haven't seen a web site, just a flyer at the parts store. It is a yearly thing so I am sure of the place and time.
OK, we're zooming in on Tuesday 10th not the 17th. Royal Oak Brewery or Bastone? How about 6:00pm?
Bastone sucks.... Griffin Claw?

Bastone sucks!!!! That's fighting talk that is!!!!
Having said that I've been meaning to go to Griffin Claw, it also has the advantage I could walk home if I really had too

I would but the 2 week old has terrible table manners.
Royal Oak, eh? Damn east-siders.....
Tentative "Aye" for me.
Royal oak is kind of in the middle. Woodward is the divider. You're just waaaay to the west
