If you live in the Detroit area, and want to meet fellow car enthusiasts, come out to Walmart tonight at 7 p.m. and get ready to burn some gasoline. Or if your car is an EV, show the rest of us how to burn some rubber with all that torque.

Our meetups have been great so far. Look at all of these people staring at a pickup-ified Subaru WRX:
