When: Saturday, April 26th
Where: Start at Buffalo Wild Wings in Wes Des Moines
What: Eat lunch and then cruise to Saylorville, hang out, take pictures, etc from there

Please feel free to join us.

I hear you!!! I am so itching to get the car out, but have no desire to re-wash it if I did.

So far it is looking like a go. We are planning to eat at a place called Buffalo Wild Wings in West Des Moines by the Jordan Creek Town Centre. They have a patio on the side of the place and should be plenty of parking. It will be mostly Mustangs, so far my Marauder, and then any other vehicles that decide to come.

Then we will cruise from there to Saylorville Lake and pick one of the shelter areas to hang out at and get some pictures of the cars and just BS.

Planning for Saturday, April 28th.

Not a problem. Those guys have welcomed me with the MM so I think you are fine. And there a number of non-SVT Mustang owners that will be there, too.

OK, so it is getting closer. Down to just over 2 weeks away. They are now talking about meeting at Buffalo Wild Wings between noon and 2:00pm to spread out eating time for those planning on eating there.

Also, there is a new thread posted on SVTP to get head counts:

i might have a guy with an 07 mustang GT going, and maybe my buddy with his purple 69 chevelle just to get it out and cruise it, and the photo op area.

Well, I got a couple of new scratches from this year already buffed out last night. Need to do a nice detail on the engine bay and she will be good to go.

I do not know how many from the Marauder or CV/GM sites will be coming. The current car count from the SVTP thread puts it around 20 cars or so all of various makes and models.

"Premium" parking close to the retaurant will be mostly for the SVT cars and Marauders. And then overflow from there. People are actually going to start showing up at noon now to spread out orders to the kitchen, but I can't be there until 1:00-1:30pm as I have to drop my daughter off in Ames and then get back down here to get the car picked up and get over there.

We had a good time and it was a decent turnout considering the cool weather and winds. No rain. Would have been about a perfect day if not for the winds. 6 or 7 Mustangs, 3 Marauders, 1 Gen 2 Lightning, a Neon SRT-4, and Lincoln LS.
