Re: New England hybrid meet
I wish there was a wormhole on the interstate so it would be easier to get from Texas to NE, sounds like it will be a great meet.

I want a time rotor and dematerialization circuit in my Insight. But I'd settle for a flux capacitor.
900 miles one way and no time off from work means I'll be reading the commentary and looking at pictures next week.

Re: New England hybrid meet
Weather looks like possible thunderstorms. We have tents and a lot of other cover if needed. Will be fun either way, so don't let a New England weather forecast spoil the fun. We all know that New England weather cannot be predicted.

Re: New England hybrid meet
Just wanted to thank Mike for hosting our group meeting yesterday. That's the first time I have ever seen so many Insights in one place! It's so nice to spend time with like-minded friendly people and learn something new at the same time.
Thanks Hobbit for the driving lesson. I will try to put it into practice, but I really think that at the very least I need a tachometer for feedback to get it better consistently.
Hope we can get this group to grow in size.

I am sure this was a great time. Playing in Mike's "playground" must be fun!

Ditto.
Thanks, Mike! Mrs Khan and I had a great time.
And thanks for the lesson, Hobbit. I learned a couple things.

Re: New England hybrid meet
Thanks to all that attended.
I had a great time also.
Unfortunately while my camera was all charged up, and I fully intended to take lots of photos, that seems to have slipped into the subconscious, and I don't have much to show.
