Outside of just cooking a pig that day... I starting thinking what would make it easier on us. Carolina BBQ, of Garner NC, is the host location for one of our local clubs (Carolina Stangs). They catered the True Blue Grand Opening a couple years back. David Bachelor, the owner of Carolina BBQ, is an avid stanger and has an '03 Cobra and a '99 Cobra for sale. If you guys like, I can call and get an estimate/price for them to cater the event. Let me know if you want me to make that call!
Brad

[Slowbra]

I'm definitely going to try and make this one..

Go for it, Brad. Catered BBQ sounds great.....we just need enough people to make it reasonably priced.

:thumbsup:

[cobrabitn]

Find out the information Brad and we'll discuss it with the rest of the gang on our mailing list, okay?
:bounce:

[Calvin_1976]

I have to work the night before but will try and make it anyway.

[GeoSnake]

I'll make the call and we can sort it out on the mailing list! Should be lots of fun!!

[GeoSnake]

$8.00 per person and Carolina BBQ brings all the food, tea and paper products!!! Family-style, eastern NC BBQ....awesome!!

[redsnake99]

I'm OK with that.....

Meet at Adventure Landing at 1PM, October 11. Do stuff until late afternoon.......one of the group ticket options was three hours of all you want for a fixed price.

Late afternoon, cruise somewhere and eat BBQ.

Again, I'll be glad to offer my place in NW Raleigh where we could have the caterer do the pig-pickin.

I'll work up a flier to post. Then we can send the notice out to the mailing list Tony formed.

:thumbsup:

Brad's going to look at the final list tonight to tell Carolina BBQ how much food to bring, so let us know by tonight if you're coming and are not on the list just before this post.

:thumbsup:

Brad, looks like we can count on 17 people. May have a couple more.

[GeoSnake]

OK, I'm gonna call Carolina BBQ today and order enough food for 20 people. I don't think that is near enough to do the "pig-pickin" so I'll order BBQ and chicken w/ all the sides. I'll talk to Carolina BBQ about having the food dropped off or whether it needs to be picked up.

[GeoSnake]

It's all set up w/ Carolina BBQ. Since we have a smaller #, they are going to bring "family style" BBQ and chicken!

[redsnake99]

Good work, Brad. We're still a go for the plan, rain has stopped, hope it won't come back. If it does rain, I've got room inside and there are lots of TV events going on. We'lll have a ball, no matter what the weather.

:bounce: :bounce:

[97whitevert]

so...... how'd it go??:bounce: :bounce:

[redsnake99]

We had a fabulous time. The rain held off all afternoon, we had several go-kart rides, did the golf courses and played a session of laser tag. Then went back to my place for a great meal from Carolina BBQ, had enouogh food left to send some home with almost everyone. Watched the Charlotte race and folks went home.

Had a decent turnout considering the threatening weather. Met some fine newcomers to the club.

Many thanks to Brad Worley for setting up the great food arrangements with David Bachelor from Carolina BBQ. Thanks to Jeff Finkelstein for driving all way from Charlotte, David and Tracy Ridgeway from Randleman, Al Fair and his nephew from Eden, Scott Shipley and Steve Carlson from Chapel Hill, Marc Ter Horst from ?, Burke Dawson from Fuquay-Varina. Paul Hamilton did the Adventure Landing thing with us, then had to go.

We'll do this again sometime.

PS. I even bought my daughter a car via Ebay during the race. She turns 16 on the 24th.

[cobra9793]

Thanks Dave for having us down and putting on everything for us. We'll have to get together again soon with others that weren't able to make it sat. See everyone fri morning.:thumbsup:

[grasshopper]

Now I can say 'I'm expreienced'- what a cool sound to hear a bunch of Cobras take off at a stop light! I'm still trying to convince my wife that my car was quiet compared to y'alls. Thanks David for having us at your house.

Unfortunately, I won't be able to take Scott's place at the Dragon Run on Friday. I'll mark my calender for next year.
Here's looking forward to another event!:bounce:

Marc

[Spiffy668]

Thanks again Dave for setting this all up. I had a great time at my last NC event. :) Let's see if the TX people are as great as you guys are. :D

[redsnake99]

Good luck, Scott , new in your new venture. Don't forget to look up Jose Colon in Dallas.

:thumbsup:

[laserred]

Just wanted to say thanks for the great time I had ! I am :( about the fact that I might not be able to attend the dragon due to a conflict at the last minute in my work schedule. I will post to let everybody know, anyway, thanks, I look foward to another NC meet. Maybe we could meet at the Fayetteville 1/4 mile strip!!!
