How about Sunday Nov. 7th?

I like Cheesecake Factory, but it is always incredibly busy....I'll see if they accept reservations for a large group on a Sunday.

Also if every one would chip in $5 towards awards, I'll put a number of them together and we can vote before the dinner.

Sample:
-Smack of the Year
-AAA Award (car that has gone through the most repairs)
-Dorki of the Year (Best representative dorki)
-Track junkie of the year
-Spouse of the year

-Other ideas??? Five awards would be good.

Yes, the whole Glory Days fiasco was my fault.

Here's the deal with Cheescake factory....

They only accept reservations for 10:00 am - 10:30 am on Sundays....so if we're going there, then it would have to be a brunch thing. Which is still ok with me.

Maybe before the brunch, we could do a mini fun run? And for those spouses/family who don't go on the fun run they could just meet us at Cheesecake. They could even sneak in a little shopping before brunch....

Don't say that.

Vu--

Sounds like a great idea. My weekends are pretty tied up for the next month or so, might be able to make a Sunday night.

Are you sure you want the worlds of Married-Vu and Porsche-Vu to collide?

ROFL

I was hoping if they come together, I could have more p-car time....kinda want to show off to her the great people I hang with.

Another food option could be Maggiano's in Tysons. The mall has tons of parking and Maggiano's can usually handle big parties. I think they take reservations too. Another plus (for a plan B) is a Cheesecake Factory in the same mall.

Maggiano's in Tysons

I've coordinated several office functions and a wedding there...nice private rooms and you can preselect meals....

Maggianos is great. Do the wives want to sit and listen to a bunch of Porsche nuts babble on and on?

I am in but I will have to see what Teresa has to say.

Would this be better for families if it was held on a weekend day at a park with picnic benches and grilles?
