Well that was fun. 
Nothing like driving an hour and fourty-five minutes, miss my turn because of the construction, swing around, have to then wait 10 minutes at a railroad crossing because of a train, finally get there about 15 - 20 minutes late... and there's no one there.
So I waited around for another quarter hour or so, and then finally just gave up and came home.
I'm sorry, but that's it for me. Driving nearly 100 miles, with the time and the money involved (not to mention I absolutely loathe driving in Pittsburgh) only to have it be a no-show...
If there's ever a meet somewhere more convenient, I'm all for it, but for now I'm done with the stuff in Pittsburgh.

Geese1,
That's a shame. You must have just missed us as we retreated to dave and busters right about 7:20. I think we may have seen you drive by the front of the place when you were walking in.

Good meet. Good to see everyone
EVODAN'S CAR IS F!CKING FAST. Blows away my stock car like it was standing still. Well, not that bad.
You can hear the difference the cams and flywheel make. His car revs through third and fourth faster then my third gear.
Here's your new signiture Dan:
Not only does it sound like a jet fighter. It goes like one too.
I suggest we do another meet in two weeks on September 16th as we're running out of warm weather so it could be one of the last ones for the year.
Thoughts?
