Cool. remember its informal, so alot of us will not know each other, while others may.. so we should try to mingle as much as possible. 
----------
also, ive got Carolina wings aware of us coming, theyre probably gonna give us our own room.. the name its under is F-body Meet.

Actually it's neither one of those. It's on Hwy #1 (Augusta Rd) in West Columbia.
Here's a map link

Ok. I checked out mapquest and found the only Carolina Wings in West Columbia. I found this address that also matches to your directions:
Carolina Wings & Rib House: 803-791-0260
2347 Augusta Rd # C, West Columbia, SC 29169, US
I'm almolst certain this is it, but correct me if I'm wrong. I'll be up early tomorrow to wash the car before we head out...

What rear end are you putting these into? and how did you break your spider gears?
Don't spend too much on new replacement parts, an entire used rear end can be had for around $200. You could probably get the pieces/parts you need for much less than that. If you've got a decent ratio a new posi unit to replace your spider gears runs around $400.

not so much that they said anything, just that they were sittin there staring at us like we were on display, and then they like decided it'd be cool to try to drift around the parking lot and stuff.. it was kind of odd. I just dont get it.

hey no problem andrew, glad you liked them. Thanks for the pics steve. Its good to have faces to go with screen names now heh. Enjoyed hanging out with you guys. No matter what the other fools that were I guess to immature to come over and say "hey guys nice rides" instead of sitting there like a bunch of yea... I really didnt care, its pretty pointless. All we did was get together hang out and have a good time. Its not our fault that some people do not get the concept. Larry "the mustang guy" hehe nice to meet ya man maybe one day youll breakdown and get your self a camaro.

Yea, we can plan another meet. IM all for it. Ill start another topic on it i suppose. Would we want to try monthly? or what? Same place or what? we'll discuss this in the other topic.. i suppose.
Greg, I agree, great to have faces to go with screen names. and also i agree, i could care less about the others, other than the fact that the way they act is why folks get kicked out of lots and stuff when we're hangin out.

Yea, we can all tend to act up now and then. I know I have seen me do it hehe. But your right it only takes one bad apple to rotten them all. There is a certain time and place for such things.
Another weird thing is I saw about three third gen camaros pass by, and some fourth gens not one even stopped. I mean what the? I dont get it. Its a f-body meet obviously.... even if they dont even know wha ta f-body is ummm "oh loook a bunch of camaros!" must be a gathering, so wouldnt you like to stop and talk to some people who have a car thats relatively related to yours in some ways. I mean I would.

Yeah, thats what I thought too, but they probably thought it was a Car Club specific thing...I'd stop too.
I wouldn't mind going back up. I don't have all weekends off so I couldn't go on a monthly basis, but I would def. try...

Hey Steve how did that other show in atlanta go, if youll went. I know you mentioned something about youll going up there, I didnt find out much about it. I just stayed in savannah and actually tried something ive never done before. PLayed racket ball for 6 hours omg thats the first time and last time, I woke up the next morning and could barely lean down to get in my Iroc haaha, felt like I fell off a 100 ft cliff. Well holla back lata man.

Well Daniel, Steve I hope I can join youll as well. I was thinking of something esle I soppose. As far as I know right now I am planning on going to the one in may. I want to try to get me some headers and exhaust installed before that though, so it sounds good. She acted up on me the other day, after I got home (in her) couple hours later I had to go partying that night, hope youll had a nice st. pattys day btw heh. Well she started than died out on me. But been fine since, im gonna change the fuel filter been awhile. But yea when the time comes we will have to caravan numbers is always a + in traveling. Another thing guys, I went to yearone.com saw the headliners they had, but no red. I did go to hawks they had one, the plastic as we were talking about steve. What was the other site for the neons an all that, I wasnt to hot on neons until I saw them on a camaro hehe. Good day gentlemen.

thats the site for the neon that steve has under the purple car and that bremer has under his iroc. he has a few colors listed but can make really any thing you want. If you were thinking about red dont get the normal red get the ruby red. it would match your interior thats what i had under my car before the leds. He is very good about replacing tubes if you have a problem. im also sending you a pm right now.

Yea, Daniel is right Greg. Robbie is real good, warrenties his work, and also makes custom length kits. So its all good. Yea, we're planning on caravaning as a group, but im gonna go fairly slow in my purple car, cause of the 4.10 gearing and stuff, not to mention the fact that Im nervous as hell about driving her that far!

Re: F-body Meet Spring '07 - Columbia SC
thanks for the site Daniel. I love people who warranty their work it shows confidence or "If I messed up ill fix it". Well Steve as long as you dont go to slow, I may not have to run over you 
. Na im kidding get this now, coming down to this last meet I burned 3/4 of a tank, going back I burned 1/4 ahahaha course I was doing only 70 and not rushing. There was this "Purple" caravan making me mad he kept getting in front of me slowing down, so I would have to pass him messing up my cruise control he did it about 5 times. I included a photo of my RS 305, I am actually trying to sell her, but its hard to let go after having her a bit . I Customized my own aluminum grill as you can see in second pic
