Paging a RICHARD or JIM???? ( from a 301 area code)  that left Mike Phillip's at Meguiar's a message on his phone....

Please call Mike back on his work cell 949-533-0225. He will answer your questions!

Question about signing up for this...

Dai has no interest in learning how to clean the wheels  ^4

In her place can I bring my PA's son, Ryan?

He would be a perfect wheel cleaner  ;D  Detail oriented kid. Future engineer we think, who loves Vipers. He has a Viper shrine in his bedroom  ^9

It says on the site, must be living with you or direct family member... Do I need to pay for him?

I'm not sure which impresses me more...the fact that you have a Personal Assistant  :o ...or the fact that you actually read the fine print on Mequiar's site !! ;D ;D

Two important points!

My Viper is still at DC Performance, we thought we would be picking it up tomorrow (Friday)...

Tony called today to say my car would not be ready to go until late next week, parts on backorder  :o

If there is a Viper owner who wants to attend, let me know, I'll give up my spot for someone who wants to attend with their Viper.

At this point, I would have to drive my Hummer down if I went...  ^7

Come on out anyway.   

You can Wax my Viper for me !   ;D     Wax On   Wax Off

Thank you Lance, for your kind offer  ^9 LOL

Actually the Hummer may have the most benefit for our club, it has desert pinstripes. So they could use it as a demo for heavy scratches  ;D

I'll go if I'm not stopping a Viper from getting TLC.

I just thought since it was sold out, if someone who could actually take their Viper wanted to go, I would stay home.

Hey Kala! 

You should come to the Detail day.  I know for a fact that Cawthorne won't be there, he had something come up.  We haven't seen you since VOI.9, it would be good to see you again.  LOL, Lisa

I wasn't joking... I really did leave at 6am...  :(

I spent last week in Vegas, I guess I picked up a nasty stomach flu bug there... I woke up this morning,  felt a little tired, but who wouldnt at 5 am...

Ryan & I drove to Magic mountain, by then I was really sick, I had to turn around and come home...  I've been in bed all day. Sucks  ^4

I hope someone waxed your car for you since I wasn't there  ^9

That sucks........I hope you are feeling better soon!

Sadly no other suckers....I mean volunteers, wanted to wax my car for me.  So you better show up next week for the Duke's run.  I'll bring the microfiber and the Meguiars for you  ;D   
I took a bunch of pictures and will get them posted later tonight.

Take care, get better and see you next Sunday!

I have to check our calendar to see if we can make the Duke's run... Maybe...

I sure hope you and Dai make it out next Sunday.  I've had something I made for you rolling around in the back of my car for 2 weeks now....and I know its something you can really use!  ::)

Many thanks to Dave K, aka Newport Viper, for setting up this practical and educational event for us!!   <1

We all had a great time and learned the proper way to use the Meguiar products.  <6 <6

The product demonstrations were awesome for those of us who really care about the appearance of our Vipers (that would be most if not all of us). :)

Kala, get well and take good care of yourself so we can all see you next Sunday!! 8)

Don't forget to post comments on the Meguiar's board also. Lots of pics there.

Since you are professionally educated Lance, I think you are the only one who SHOULD wax my car  ;D

This is a really nasty flu, hopefully I'm over this one fast... Dai and I are looking at the calendar to see if we can move anything we had planned next weekend. Does anyone know when I have to RSVP for Duke's by???

Hi Kala,

The Dukes "brunch" is served buffet style.  We didn't have to give them a specific number of attendees, just a "range", so make it if you can - even last minute.  While rsvp's are always nice, no rsvp is necessary for this one.

I was sick for a solid week and it sucked, so I feel for you. 
Upside is you can use the "I'm sick" excuse and cancel all obligations for Sunday and come out to Dukes.

Hope you feel better soon!

Lance, Your SSR's look great!

Now that you've attended the Meguairs Class I expect to see all swirl-free Vipers at Duke's on Sunday.
