 dood... sorry to hear... want us to rally some carpc guys? We can go on a witchhunt for the carpc(and car) thiefs 
with all our gps tracking and other tech, we should be able to find anything... and punish those bastards...
(want me to get'm deported?  )
as far as the meet goes... so we have 2-3 confirmed/possibles? :-\ Should we cancel this one and just hit up next months? Let us know...

I'm probably taking it alot better than i should be.. probably because the car had some mechanical issues and because i have a 3rd car thats just been sitting that i can use to commute. My plan for now is to just drive it around for a few months until i can save up enough to pick up an rx-8 or somethin of that nature ( just bought my wife a new minivan so i can splurge like that lol) Anyways i'll still be attending some of the meets and still be active on here... i just cant make this one for obvious reasons.
I'll also probably just end up selling MOST of my pc parts and picking up the all-n-one unit mp3car store carries. Wont be using SD on it though (am i allowed to say that??? i skipped over the new rules lol)

Sorry to hear that bro, any loss sucks when you've put time/money/blood/sweat/tears into it... but that's good you have another ride for the temp usage. I hope the cops get those *$#%#'n Bastards... I can't believe a person that is in a market to assist people would be so fk'd in the head... but this world is.. so... whatever.. lmk if you need some deportation help 
RX-8 hmm... Carrol Shelby GT500 FTW!!!  each each to his own 
and yeah.. no SD... dang... we might get banned  
j/k... please don't ban me...  not yet anyways...

If it happens, I should be there for some of it. But don't make it happen on my account.

Man, Sonic I am so sorry about what happened to your car...I do know that a lot of times, thieves will watch mechanic shops and the like for parked cars outside the place, because they know no one's around outside of business hours. The driver could possibly have notified some malcontents about the presence of the car, tho, or did the theft himself, I guess. Anyway, hope you get things recovered/replaced quickly. I know what it's like, I had my car stolen by a 13-year-old kid while I was parked at a friend's house when I was living in Jax, FL. I was Navy at the time, and living aboard ship, so a LOT of my personal possessions were in the trunk. Nothing was recovered except the car, minus the stereo, of course.

My condolences Shawn, although it does seem like you're taking it OK. I was going to say I bet the thieves didn't know they were getting a CarPC with the car and they were really really impressed at least. But if you took the PC out then OK, they didn't get it at least. Anyway yeah, the whole thing sucks man.
Since I barely have time to say Hi, I wouldn't mind just waiting 'till... July 21? I guess.

If that is a requirement for showing up, I may never meet you guys.
I think in the 3 years i've had my 'scape i've washed it maybe 3 times 
I might be there right at 2, but I should hopefully be there shortly after.

I can bring some rinseless wash with me. Anything to keep a fellow cobra clean.
On a side note, sorry i'm not very vocal guys, I just have so many interests, I'm constantly checking like 10 message boards. Between that, work, and actually working on my projects, I have little time. With that said, I'd like to thank Steve for all his work keeping these events going. I don't think he had this much responsibilty in mind when he started this, but kudos for keeping it going.

Hey guys, doesn't look like I'm gonna make it today. My dad is having a load of dirt delivered to fill in the hole where the pool used to be and he's gonna need all hands on deck. Sorry about the last minute notice, he just told me this morning.

Hopefully next month.
