Yeah I figured people would ask.
But guess you didn't see it at Laguna Seca -- my side marker's been popping out on the freeway and on track when I hit bumps. I taped it up so it wouldn't flap around on track and get me black flagged for loose body parts lol. I will probably take it in and have the dealership look at it at my next oil change. I've tried to mess with the clip a little to fix it and feel like it's just gotten worse.

Hey, I'd still work next Wed and still would want to unwind. I don't see why not. That said, we have the Dublin/Toy Drive next Friday so if anyone unfortunately can't make Dublin but wants to contribute, I'd be happy to bring your contribution(s) from the Southbay to Dublin. PM IS ok haha

This happens to me sometimes when I hit cones at autoX or scrape my bumper bad on a drivway. push it in REALLY REALLY REALLY hard like you feel like you're breaking it.

I get the same from scraping. Hell, my bumper came off the tab on the passenger side from a real bad one.

come to think of it that might be how it came loose in the first place... I did kill a few cones at an autox one night at 86EXPO.

Darnit, I probably can't show up with the brownies My mom is sick so I have to stay with her in Elk Grove. I'll have to put off all meets for the time being.

Yes, sure, let's make it happen. Who couldn't use a midweek meet n greet at Starbucks, or any social place that allows a small gathering.

This Wednesday, 11/13, I was thinking:
Starbucks (corner of El Camino Real and Lawrence Expressway)
3605 El Camino Real
Santa Clara‎ 95051
Time: 7pm (earlier is fine too if you leave your work earlier and get others as well, I'm off the clock @ 630p)

Mind you, I only work in the Southbay for half the week so if you're familiar of any other social spots that serve appetizers/warm drinks, let's hear it. Another place I had thought of was a Ten Ren Tea (Cupertino). We all can prefer a nice, centralized location and easy to/from the freeway. So share your ideas and locations.

McCarthy Ranch Starbucks is always an option and familiar with a lot of folks.

@MyRx, that place works for me. A possible location for some other week could be Twinkle Boba Cafe (46132 Warm Springs Blvd, Fremont, CA 94539). It's near LeMans Karting/off of Mission Blvd, so it's close to 880 and 680. I'm usually there most Wednesdays at 9pm and onwards for a Subaru meet (all other cars are welcome) that's been going on there for a while now. There's a few restaurants as well in the same plaza as Twinkle.
