    Okay, sorry for the delay, and after a HIGHLY successful 2011 season, here's the list of the meets.

    Since our attendance is up, I'm moving the time we meet up a whopping 15 minutes to 7:00PM. We're usually all there by then and most of us are starving, so it just makes sense :)

    Without further ado, here's the restaurants and dates!!

    January 24, February 7th: Spice Brick Oven Kitchen
    yelp | urbanspoon | map

    February 21, March 6: Tilted Kilt - Dunwoody

    March 20, April 3: Grand Champion BBQ
    yelp | urbanspoon | map
    April 3rd will be a second! We'll have one of our vendors sponsoring the meet and will provide food and drinks for the event. Please come on out!

    April 17, May 1: On The Border
    yelp | urbanspoon | map

    May 15, May 29: Taco Mac (Prado)

    I've been rolling around the idea of maybe having a year endish meet at my restaurant but I can't figure out the logistics of it. Parking would be a bitch (it's valet only at night) and it wouldn't be cheap (even with me doing a discount).

    Thoughts anyone?

    Well for me, food is a wonderful vice, and I've heard great things of your place. So I wouldn't mind paying a bit more than our norm.

    I'd be up for it.

    I don't mind valeting my car. It does have valet mode on the AP! "Why the f&*k won't this car rev above 2,500?!" :rofl:

    Im gonna try to make as many as I can, and probably make to the ones closer to home. Since I do get out of work at 7 im going there straight from work so i might be there a lil dirty and in work clothes. But I am looking forward to meeting more for you.

    I host a trivia show every Tuesday so needless to say I won't ever be able come to one of these so I'm wondering if you guys ever do one-shot meet-ups (i.e. track days, special events, auto shows) on days other than Tuesdays?

    The big no Tuesday meets since I've been on here are Formula D/Drift Atlanta, and Petit Lemans

    I had a lot of fun this past year going to those events with everyone.

    Where do you do trivia?

    We sometimes do other meets on other days of the week.

    Good. I saw that Drift Atlanta was coming up soon-ish and I was hoping that there would be a club showing.

    Tuesday- Trackside Tavern in Decatur
    Wednesday- Three Dollar Cafe Jr. in Tucker
    Thursday- Raging Burrito in Downtown Decatur

    Tuesday and Thursday are my favourite shows.

    'twas a good turnout! I had low expectations of the restaurant based off reviews, but it was pretty good.

    Thanks for coming out, everyone! See you there next time...(in 2 weeks)
