Of course you're invited!
Too bad you can't make it this time, but there will be other events happening soon.
This was kind of an informal dinner for whoever wanted to come, but not "advertised" as a big meet or anything. We are hoping to have a big event this winter, so keep checking back.
Good luck in your search as well. If you don't have an SVX by the next time we meet, it may be a good chance to come down and check out the cars and see how they are supposed to drive, etc.
