----------- Brian: Yup - everyone is allowed. Long as it is a Ford k? And, Tim and I are going to be relying on you - we need support !! They get allot of people going in and out of there, and it is a busy highway .. it would be nice to give SCMC some "publicity" here ..!! You know, show 'em what we've got !! :burnout: :burnout: :run: :run: :bounce: :bounce: |

------- I do not know exactly - but I'm guessing about another hour or two east ?? |
Quote:
--------- that would be really cool Dean !! Hey, if you decide not to bring the R - you can show Bully !! She'll be ready !! Were going to bring Trigger and Flash - and it seems kind of a shame to leave her (Bully) at home - she is an SVT ya know !! :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :bounce: :bounce: |
July 14 looks like a good date for us! We'll be there!
BTW, two years ago a Camaro pulled in to see what all the fuss was about. My daughter, Kira, pointed it out and said "Look, prey!" :rotf: |
Quote:
--------- I remember that ... !! Hopefully, we'll all get to park together again this year - and talk about our kill stories !! Hopefully, this year the heat index won't be 105 degrees!:eek: :eek: |
Quote:
Amen to that! Don't forget the monsoon afterwards. :D |

:thumbsup: Sounds great Dave! |

------ oh yea, you had to remind me didn't you ??? Actually - it was probably worse for you.. Tim and I waited it out at the restaurant after we got back with the trailer .. then it calmed down just enough for us to load Trigger on the trailer - we drove home slowly .. but I could just imagine how awful it was for you.... :eek: We do have allot of good memories don't we?:D |
Quote:
------------ Cool Dave - glad your coming too! Sorry that I no longer have a Rio red Cobra for you to park right next too.. but then again .. think about it between Dean and us - we could have RED WHITE AND BLUE !!!! Let's park together k? With Flash on the other side of Trigger ofcourse... making it - RED, White, Blue & Black ... hmmmm, too bad we can't bring Bully .. ADD silver to the collection .. :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: |
Good idea Bonny. We'll go with the flow.
Or we could do the "What's white and black and red all over" thing. :D |
Quote:
Yup, sounds good! :thumbsup: At this current moment, I am definitely black and blue all over .. long stressful weekend .... phew .... |
Maybe I'll bring up the rear behind Dean & Dave, try to keep them out of trouble...:)

--------- we will probably be getting a block of rooms at a hotel just like we always do - everybody could meet there on Sunday morning, and then we'll really have a convoy !!! :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: |

anybody else coming???

Christa and I plan to attend. So far the only year we missed was last year, when it conflicted with my annual bike ride across Iowa.
It's one event we really hate to miss! :thumbsup: |
Quote:
hey, the heat index was over 100 degrees that day ... how was your bike ride?:confused: :eek: |
Bonny, it was HOT! Last year we had heat and headwinds for most of the week. Still, a bad day on the bike (or in the Cobra) is better than a good day at work.:D

------------ all I know is I had a problem with the heat. I was sick for two days afterward. If it is that hot this year - I'm stayin' inside. :( :( I'd rather be by the cars and the people, but I tried roughing it out there and that didn't work for me. I just can't take the heat anymore. At least - not that type of heat !! You know what I thought was absolutely ridiculous? Heat index approx. 105 degrees, and there were still people crazy enough to pull out onto the highway and give the poor car all it's got .... Tim and I didn't do that with our engines. We don't like the heat, and neither do they. Pushing your engine to extremes on a day like that is asking for trouble... oh well. Hopefully, this year will be 80 degrees instead:thumbsup: :bounce: well, 75 would be better ...:rolleyes: |
The heat was probably harder to take standing around in a parking lot than moving on a bike. At least we create our own breeze.
As for punishing the car in the heat, I've often wondered if my engine problems are related to running at Tulsa in the heat. The car never overheated but it was getting close a couple of times. Forged internals now, I just need to sell my TR6 and buy a blower :burnout: |
Quote:
----------- yup definitely !! You need to buy a blower .. I just love it on Trigger - at first, I was a little nervous about it, but we didn't go overboard with it. We just did what was necessary and no more. We are very careful with it - and I have allot to learn in driving it ... but WOW !!!!! what a car !! what a difference !! |
