    I'm afraid I won't be able to properly address that until I've had a ride/driven an example of each.



    Ahem. Hint, hint. Wink wink nudge nudge. You know who you are.

    Good to see some faces that now I can associate w/ handlenames. It was funny everyone who was looking at my cars moved to Gallardo as soon as it arrived. My engine bay was still open! (I was also in a group to move to Gallardo, too, so that must be natural reaction) Then Brian's CS attracted more people.

    Jim, you send me to the store, and I PM the result. Hope it works out.

    Lunch was little heavy for me, and I feel still stuffed after driving about 50 miles.

    BTW, I just got back. Several nice compliments I got at Westin, but until some Gallardo comes again!

    JP, I talked to Dennis for short time, and he really like his yellow G. He's still keeping 355 challenge though.

    To those who went to drive after lunch, hope you had a good time!

    Wow, really impressive turnout for a Thursday lunch meet.

    Brian, your 360 CS is sweet, I'd like to see it out on the track real soon.

    Yoshi, your 355 spider looks great! Glad you got it.

    Jonathan, Thank you for bringing the Gallardo, I've never heard one until you passed Tillman on 114. What a sound. :D

    Since I was "voted off the island" to move the Integra to make room for Brian's CS, a man in a Acura pulled up & asked me in the parking lot what was going on with all the exotic cars. I was really tempted to tell him it was the North Texas Columbian Marching Powder Distributors Association but that would have been wrong on so many levels.

    Thanks Guys, it was excellent to see everyone & meet some new faces from this board.

    Had a fun time. It was great seeing everyone and making a few new friends. I know that the TBC thing is an ongong event for the group, but perhaps a (minimum) quarterly luncheon is on tap?

    <happily taps Tillman for the honor. :) >

    Thanks! I was having a great time driving, "at speed" with Brian too, so when I hit 114 I was in cruise mode. I really had a great time at lunch and I hope we can do it more often.

    Maybe we could plan a lunch / drive to some place that wouldnt be too far. What do you guys think?

    Thanks for complicment & posting pics, guys. I liked Jim's "You look good in it".

    I like Nick's idea, but taking 2-3 hours for lunch requires tactical scheduling.

    Since 9:30, I have been trying to download my pics & trying to put them on the thread. I cannot believe I can't do this in snap since most of you can do it!!! I think I'll just put words instead now.

    Before downloading, I had to go get a cable, then found out a card reader is actually not much different in price. I think a card reader should be better if this pans out.

    Hope Collin got home safely & happily driving his 348!

    Yes! Pics are loaded, but...

    I tried 1200 x 800 first, then loading was incomplete due to its size, so I changed to 800 x 600, but still same result. 800x600 is the same size of Will's pics. So I changed it to 400 x 300, and then finally loaded successfully. However my pics are smaller. What is the reason for this?

    Pics need to be less than 640 by 640, I had that text by the Manage Attachments button, but I lost it after last upgrade.

    I'd like to some of Jim's photos. I'm sure that they came out better than most of ours.

    Thank you Rob. I knew there was some size restriction based on my last experience, but this time, the error message gave the limit on MB.

    Will, Jim M's pics are copy-righted for his magazine!

    Jim M, I forgot to mention but I liked how your magazine looked. Hope it'll be success! If you need me for a model, you know my agent. FORD (sorry it's cliche)

    Hey, thanks for washing it! (Even if only virtually.)

    And feel free to post as many of those washed-car photos as you have
    over in the thread in the main forum. Thanks!
