i'll try and convince my wife to drive a Bentley GT. it all depends on the weather though - since we're coming from Dallas, i need to make the call early and have the cars readied
Looks like we're going to have a great turnout! I just spoke to a couple guys at the gym where I work out and they may be coming as well. I will wait for them to confirm on this site. One has a beautiful Ferrari Superamerica. The other has a Viper rare Mambo Edition.
My wife wants a Bentley GT. If you bring it, I may have to write a check for one next week. I know she'll want to see it
wow.. at this rate, that parking lot is going to be FULL of exotics. going to be pretty funny seeing the looks on peoples faces as they all wonder in for happy hour haha lets get a good confirmed number of people tommorrow by lunch or early afternoon, then send out a reminder email

This is gonna be a lot of fun I think. I hope we don't get rained out. The more I hear, the more it sounds like later in the night Friday.
i just watched the weather forecast on Local 2, and they said that the rain would be later at night and into saturday morning so i think we should be GOOD TO GO for 5pm happy hour!!!
Provided everything goes as scheduled, when we arrive will we just say we're part of the Ferrari Chat group, pay $7 for parking I'm assuming...then around $5 for tip as Roro mentioned? I work off of Westpark so I'm gonna leave the office around 4:30pm, pick up my roommate and head out. Should be there right at 5pm I'd imagine. I guess it would be a good idea for all of us to keep track of FChat during the day to make sure everything is a go. I think a cut off time of say 2 or 3pm would be good. Meaning if a cancellation is in order it will be posted in here no later than that time. But with Lizard coming from D-Town I would imagine it should be earlier than that. Off to wash my car. Don't care if it rains, it needs it and it'll only be my 2nd time to wash her since pick up day.
I would say all good suggestions. Just say you are part of the F-Chat Group or Exotic car night, then proceed and pay the valets. I'll be there around 5PM as well. We'll probably post sometime around noon-2PM if it is going to be post-poned. In any case, like you, I don't care too much about a little rain.

I sent this same email reminder to F-chat members going: Hey guys, This message is only going to those registered on F-chat so please inform your friends and fellow car owners attending. I do not have their email addresses of course. This is just a reminder that we are still ON for Pub Fiction at 5PM tomorrow. Let's all try to get there at that time. IN FACT, I think the place opens at 4PM so feel free to get there a little earlier if you want. I think that most of the rain will be coming in late Friday evening and into Saturday morning. I'm sure some of you have been watching the weather. I'm hopeful it is not bad. In any case, please check back on this site at around noon to 1PM as we will post if it is on or postponed. I will not send out an email reminder. When you do get there at 5PM, please proceed to parking lot and just let the valets know you are part of the F-chat Exotic Car Event. Please make sure to take care of them. We have the patio area reserved. Thanks again to Jason for reserving everything at Pub Fiction. It's great to know people in high places Can you ask the owner if it does get postponed, what about Saturday for those that can make it? Just a though although I think we are 99% ON. Anyways, I'm going to wash my car tomorrow. See you soon!
Out the door to workout and its sprinkling on the northside but I think we will still be okay for tonight
im locked an loaded haha.. i drove my car into work, and i plan on tearing it up tonight, so rain or no rain, im going.. but i think the weather wont be an issue.. a little cloudy on the west side, but things change quick here and i am hoping the rain wont come until later tonight. i stopped by Pub last night and they are all set for us... reserving the highly visible spots in the lot for us.. i plan on being there around 4:45 with a cold beer in hand. see yall there!
Sorry all not going to make it. Given the choice mine stay tucked under thier car covers when it looks like rain. Have fun. PS - For those not going why don't you plan on heading out 59 to the winery. Helen and I will be there. Just say you're from Fchat and we'll give you a free wine tasting. for directons go to www.circlesvineyards.com BigTex, you heading my way?
ashik, joe and myself will be rolling up there. gotta get a carwash today...see you guys in a lil while. safeer
i'm bailing as well due to weather and really need to tend to other stuff BUT if the weather had cooperated that other stuff "could've waited" had to make the call early this AM since we're coming from Dallas and we've got nasty storms supposedly starting up pretty soon y'all have a great time and be sure to take plenty of pics - make crystal cove seem like a distant memory
It's about 12:30PM. Well as you can see, there is some light drizzle out there. WE ARE STILL ON. Safeer, Ashik, Joe, Jason, Bubba, Murciemurcie, myself and others have confirmed going even in the rain. That's hardcore! We can get some good Exotic Cars in the rain pictures. I'm down! A little rain doesn't hurt. It just gives me reason to clean it up real good tomorrow. If you are too scared to bring your car out, then come anyways in your daily driver. So see you all there and try to get there 5PM or before. Like Jason said, the patio is covered so even if it rains, we can get some drinks and food and enjoy the company. Bring your friends and family! By the way, Bubba says, for all you Lambo owners, keep your traction control on. See you soon
it seems that it is raining in some parts of the city and not others. im definitely going no matter what since i have my car out already anyway. my guy from Pub called to get the scoop and he said if it is raining and the patio is closed, he will set us up right inside on a big high tabletop. so he has us covered either way.
Thats sounds good. I'm coming in from Kingwood area. Rain is a light drizzle. We should be ok. If you feel we need to postpone, now is the time to do it. We can go again tomorrow. But since we are all set up today and people will be there, let's go....I'm hardcore and so is my wife! See you there! Vrracr, joe, ashik and others will be there at 5 as well. Let's not let this rain damper the day.
Unfortunately the weather is NOT going to cooperate with us today, so unoffically the "event" will not be happening, BUT it sounds like there ARE some people going anyway, me being one of them haha. like i said before, i am out anyway so i might as well go for a beer.
