Wow, what a way to end the year! The December Monthly Meet was a great success with about 30 people in attendance and more than a dozen F-Bodies invading the Applebee's parking lot. Other than a little bit of an issue with the way the check came out, the day couldn't have been much better. Thanks to everyone who attended for a great time. We look forward to seeing you all at the January meet at the Firkin Tavern. Check out the discussion of the meet and pics in the NJFBOA Events Forum:

As the year draws to a close it is also time for a much needed software update for the club site. On Thursday, December 18th, we will be taking the site down for a few hours to do some upgrades, maintenance, and to add some new features to the NJFBOA forums. The downtime will begin at approximately 8:00 pm.
The number of new members signing up continues to amaze us. If you are a new member, please take a moment to introduce yourself by posting in the Welcome/Introduction Forum:

We also strongly encourage the members that have been around a while to check out the new members and their rides, there are some beautiful cars coming into the club.
The NJFBOA is also proud to announce that we are in the final planning stages for our first ever road course track day. We have a date lined up and just need to confirm that the membership is interested in coming out for a day of lapping on the Lightning Circuit at New Jersey Motorsports Park. It will be a great day with plenty of giveaways, track time, and professional instruction for everyone. Check out the plan as it stands now in the Road Racing and Autocross Forum:
