12 GXP's/G8's all in a row!
http://forum.grrrr8.net/showthread.php?p=107530&posted=1#post107530


That looks good. For sure no dealer ever had a row like that.

So, to add insult to injury to the deadbutt SW guys in Texas who probably spent their Friday evening in the back yard kicking road apples around, I will now throw out a very (what else?) obnoxious challenge.

To wit. Sooooooooo, here we are, up here right next to Alaska where there are maybe 13-14 total G8's in the entire 4 Northwestern states. And, in a driving torrential mist, the likes of which would have had the 'Texas boys' scurrying to get their cars under cover :rofl:, the brave, handsome, stunning, well behaved (of course our women & children were with us! Duh??) and intrepid NW gang manage to put an even dozen (count 'em - 12) spectacularly modded and polished G8's, GXP's in a perfect row! All this while being tempted by the smell of cheap greasy tacos and burritos (burp) and having to chase 'stanger wannabe's' out of our hard won territory! The 'stang boys were so in awe of our numbers and cars, they finally fled the scene making those odd, raspy noises that Ford toy engines make.:p Even more daunting, although some of the clan drove for hours in a monsoon to be here, as any true NW G8 aficionado would do, we were forced to wait for hours OUTSIDE Red Robin in order to feed our familys.:windy:

(OK, I would have had second thoughts about letting this rowdy gang inside too.)

Finally, after putting up a large stack of dinero as a bond, we were allowed inside, ordered and, after allowing other customers to leave or move far away, ate just short of starvations door.

No doubt I missed many interesting and dangerous episodes since penguins always arrive fashionably late.

I hope others will post some of the dastardly deeds attempted by the competition, and some of the openly hostile incidents that occured.

In closing, I must allow the SW contingent an out, since we all know that they could never pull anything like this off. They are, after all, fellow Grrrr8'ers. :nah:.

written as only the penguin can write it. He fails to mention that there was a collective mob running to meet him as he came to see if he was real. It was like celebrity arriving lol

Nice turn out! I'll definitely try to make the next one. It's a little farther out for me. If it's on a weekday I'll take work off. Perhaps my cam and header upgrade will be done by then! :devil:

I had a great time meeting 10 other G8 GT and Yes 1 GXP. It was nice to meet people who had the same respect for there GT's as I do. Great turn out even from a Texan who doesn't like bad weather.

Hey Ben, I saw you yesterday in Puyallup driving down the main strip there. I was going to honk, but I was in my truck and you probably would have had no clue it was me! I also saw a black GT getting off of HWY 167 just north of Puyallup.
