Pacific North West Get Together in Eugene: feedback wanted

[G2]

Hey all,

Figured I'd start a separate thread and see what everyone thought on getting some people together soon.

I can host just about whenever at my shop which is not far from I-5. Lots of parking. Nice facilities with car lifts. We could do a Potluck style BBQ, food, and some adult libations. Good sound system, too.

Our last G2G we were also doing oil changes and basic fiddling around. Great time was had.

Maybe open the doors a bit wider and see how many Audi's would show up? Be great to see who could make it and when.:thumb:

Sounds good man, I'm just down the street so whenever we can get some folks from Bend and Portland over...or Seattle?

I know three S4's, and will put the word out once it's set.

Gary is 5 minutes off I-5 just so you knows, nice lot and shop...

I voted twice. I plan to have my car back in May so anytime after that works!

[ben916]

hmmmm.... this would be good to get the PNW RS6 together.
Should make it there on one tank.. :)

Have to run it by congress

I'm in Bend and could scoot over to Eugene for a G2G. End of May, even later is a better fit with my schedule.

Road trip! If I'm not either up to my eyeballs in work or in British Columbia fishing, I'm game!

[Chung]

As long as it is on a Saturday I am game. My weekends in the July time frame might be busy though.

[G2]

Sorry to be the absentee on this, oops-- but, Sounds great! Okay, how about Saturday May 11? 10am to 4pm? Weather should be about perfect then.

If all goes well we can do another event later in the summer or early fall for those who can't make it.

We've got plenty of room, both indoors and out, good for familiy types.

Good ideas and that would be great, Lou. Should we also put the word out on other channels- is that what you were maybe suggesting?

Let's do it!

[Chung]

Thanks for hosting. I am in. I look forward to meeting some new friends.

I can't make it...not enough time in the weekend...:(

You just have to commit to drive just a little faster, thats all :)

Consider it a shakedown cruise .... missle

[repda503]

Dang I can go May 18th but May 11 might be tough. Maybe I'll just leave a little early.

You're SO close. Was thinking of starting at 9-10am, so there should be plenty of time for you! Be a shame to miss what will sure to be a great time. Maybe you can shake down PDX and road trip down with a few others?

[lswing]

Will put it on the calendar, thanks!

I'll check in, thinking a trans fluid swap when you can...interested to see how it affects the feel.

[G2]

Let's spread the word on this G2G! REALLY like to see a bunch of S-line, S, and R/RS cars show up. Anyone with a Q series TDI maybe?

[G2]

Will put it on the calendar, thanks!

Sounds like we're on for a show! The Amsoil ATF fluid really seems to smooth out shifting, on other cars we've done over the years. Including another performance built trans (700hp rated) in our customers B5 S4 2.7TT.

Sure, we can do the fluid flush and gasket service next week sometime. Be interesting to see how the current fluid looks once drained out and if there's any-- or how much-- new trans break-in debris in the pan.

I've stuck my neck out, so it's official now! https://www.facebook.com/events/150997545074865/

Please "Join" so we can get a proper head count. Also, share the FB link, etc, to spread the good word. I think we already have an S5 coming up from SoCal!!

Thanks everyone!
Gary

Question: Any reason we shouldn't open the door and also invite our VW friends? Seems most events have both marques....

[as350]

I will know at the last minute if I can make it or not. But the date is on my calendar.

[ben916]

still waiting for more Seattle peeps to chirp

Go ahead and Join in if you might be able to make it: https://www.facebook.com/events/150997545074865/

Bird seed? Might help :hihi:

More a metaphor, in the sense of kicking up some dust to see who you just might talk into also making the trip. Be great to meet you.

[hahnmgh63]

Is it May 11th for sure?

[topcat_92]

May 11th, no can do for me, charity golf tourney. Wishing I could make it. Have a blast and post lots of pics.

[G2]

Please spread the good word as you can. If all goes well on this one, we'll do our best put on another g2g for later in the summer, too.

Am I chopped liver?

As to the VW/Audi, I vote the more the merrier.

[NSU RS6]

No can do 5/11 in Eugene......

Sawy.

[vitalian]

I'm afraid I'm in Camp NoCanDo as well -- that's a "sports abuse" day at CenturyLink Field.

[lswing]

Bump...we've got 4 RS6's confirmed, few more maybe, handful of other cars, cheers!

[Chung]

It was great to meet everyone. Thanks for hosting.

[lswing]

Good to meet up, thanks for driving down!

[as350]

Post a few pictures! I wish I could have made it, but life keeps getting in the way of my RS6 affair.

[Chung]

I didn't take any photos but I think some were taken by others.
