My girlfriend has family in Indiana, so maybe I'll be able to come by as well!

Just don't let the GF drive your car .... the worst drivers either live or are from Indy-anna !  😉 

Tell that to KaM, phats...and here I thought you were getting better...you need a mint suppository to freshen your breath  😯 🙂 

And neo, come on down! You'll find some terrific roads, food and people...even if phats shows up 😉 😉 

I may set-up a route in the South Eastern quarter of the state(South of I70 to the Ohio River, and East of I65). There are many good driving roads and interesting places to eat. While this is possible, the normal route areas are South from Greencastle to Spencer to Bedford, then possibly further South to the West Baden Springs/French Lick area, and East from Bedford to Story. All this returns to Greencastle. A route extension could go North thru Nashville, then West to Bloomington. Anyway, there are many , good options to consider.

That is a swell idea G

I will add this event to the calendar I'm making as well.

X2...

Something has happened in Indy that may help "us" drive on the most famous race track on the face of the Earth. The Indianapolis Motor Speedway was sold to Roger Penske. One of his 18 ownership victories in THE 500 was with a Toyota powered car. I'm going to contact Mr Penske to see if he would allow "us" to do a drive around the track(I'll ask to do both courses, the oval and the road). The "old" ownership denied this, due to IMS being a "GM" track(support etc.), even tho GM and Toyota had a collaboration.

We'll see...

@galo

That would be very kool

I was never a fan of racing, but since The Frog and I found each other, I have started giving it respect.

I live about 7 to 8 hours away, but I would make an effort to do this, for many reasons, including as a gesture to X, whom I never even knew.

Imagine hundreds of Spyders and Spyder-lovers (and Spyder-lover lovers) showing up... Photo op!  Maybe the raceway's new owners might appreciate that, but I know nothing of such things. Best track meet ever? Top 10 for sure.

17.5hrs away for me... But possibly the right time of year for me to not miss much work. I'll keep it in mind, maybe I'll have 4+ days I can dedicate to this 🙂

Just updating that I will no longer be able to make the meet. I will be in Japan during the relevant dates. In other news, ill be in Japan for a few weeks and have a decent working knowledge of written and spoken japanese so hmu if you need parts sourced haha

I've heard that in certain quarters there are vending machines that sell soiled underpants.  I'd like to see a picture of one of those machines, or dispel the myth as urban legend.

@pwnzor

Consider me on the case for errrr cultural research reasons. Do you have any more information on what wards or quarters these would be located in? If I find one, I will post a picture back here. Let me know if you would like any international packages hahahhaa.

The internetz would have me believe that it may be a thing of the past, see below

HOWEVER... If I'm going to Japan, I'm looking and asking around for it...

Any updates on this? I might drive down with my 2arfe swap.

@mscholten

I'm still planning to go over ....pretty sure he'll still have it . He's been taking a break from the car forums .... he's suffering from grumpy old man syndrome .  

PLEASE CHECK THE FIRST POST

Thanks, and sorry for not having anything posted for so long. I just haven't had my mind on much the last months, due to a loss in the family.

Again, checkout the first post...take care!
