There is plenty to do around Tucson. Sullivan's has a pretty rockin' happy hour on Thursday nights. McMahon's has half off scotch night and happy hour until 7pm on Thursdays. Dantes Fire is a cool new restaurant/bar that has an awesome Manhattan with fireball.

Cartel is a pretty cool place to hang out to get coffee and/or beer/wine/whiskey/bourbon/etc. It is very hipster though so some of us might not fit in all that well (including me).

Fourth is so-so. Congress is a lot more fun in my opinion.

I know I have a pretty busy schedule and cannot meet every week but if someone wants to take the lead in setting up a weekly meet up, that would be awesome.

I'm sitting here looking out my back window in that general direction and it's looking like you'll run into a storm. May be raining or worse right now. Not saying that's a bad thing though.

South mountain is pretty damn smooth compared to the first half of tortilla flats.

Maybe we could meet up near SanTan mall some time. It's a pretty busy area and it would be great to let people see us out there I would guess. I need a club sticker! I was feeling left out and so was the Batmobile

Club decals come in time. They don't just go to anyone. They go to active members who attend 5 or more meets/events. Don't worry. As long as you are active you will get one 😄

South Mountain was my very first 'for fun' drive in the car. I don't think it's rough at all... just a bit scary sometimes as the lanes can get pretty narrow, and other people cross lanes quite a bit...

Speaking of which, do you have one you can send down here with someone that's coming to the track day next saturday night here in tucson?

I don't know if you've got any more made yet.

Got the flex fuel tune on the car to match the hardware. Takes a couple miles for the fuel to reach the engine. When it did you could feel the car pushing harder and harder as the maps changed to the ethanol content.

No more having to drage the netbook everywhere with me. Yay.

If anyone else wants to join, we will probably head out to tortilla flats in a couple hours for traffic to die down.
