Who's going to be there next Saturday? The boys at Helix told me there would be some modded MINIs and munchies. Don't forget that they are next to Yards Microbrewery

My wife really craves cheese curds (grains du fromage) but they might not be too tasty after a day riding in a MINI,

I look forward to meeting everyone there however. Have a good trip!

I should be zooming down after a WRX dyno day in the morning - my cousin has seriously modded Scooby and has some other guys coming with 300+ ponies at the wheels...

I also need to have people listen to what my regular old Cooper sounds like now

I love cheese curds, especially as Poutine but that's what Quebec is famous for, we don't really get cheese curd here in Toronto. I've yet to find a place with authentic cheese curd. :smile:

Thanks. See you in a week.

Paul

I talked to Eric at Helix today. He said that there will be a twisty drive that ends up at Gino's Cheese steaks on Saturday at about 1pm. I already feel my arteries hardening.

mmmmm.... cheese steaks..... I have it on my calendar and if I can make it I will come but typically I have family stuff on the weekends. Now that windy roads and cheese steaks are involved I think I'll have to push a little more to go! The guys at helix are really great and I got my pulley installed by Eric a month or so ago. I would definately recommend them to anyone within driving distance!

We're coming from 8 hours away, I guess that's still "driving distance."

Be sure to leave extra early if you're coming from north jersey... its memorial day weekend and you'll sit in shore traffic all morning.

As long as you can drive straight through without stopping! If you have to stop and sleep it's not driving distance!
