shameless bump

[happybigblock]

I will call Gene Koss from Shelby North America this week also to confirm details for the folks heading to the car show on Sunday. We plan to attend that one this year.
-Steve

[happybigblock]

Gene said that we have the same arrangements as last year for Sunday's "Sunday in the Park" event. We can park in the same section on the track with the Shelby group. Tickets are also on sale, as always, through AAA.

Thanks Steve,

I hope I can still make it.
Had a minor problem with from end, new rims don't match color of old one. Hope body shop can match then to correct color.

Fingers crossed, I'd hate to miss this as it is a blast every year.

I'm back in, Ya Hoo

[happybigblock]

Scratch the AAA tickets. For some reason this year, they are only selling the race tickets, not show tickets. Go figure.

[rscocca]

For those of you who this is your first time. Its a little chilly in the morning so dress for comfort.

Don't forget your EZ Pass.

Great to meet you Pat. Nice ride you have there.

Good to meet you Bob on Sunday. We had a great day. Just missed getting rained on during the drive home. Pulled in the garage and the sky opened up. Close one.

That was a great weekend!
Took 5 hours of back roads there for fun.
It was not easy camping out of a cobra but fun, expecally driving through the nice mt roads late at night. It was cool seeing all the vintage racers..too bad no cobras, but it was cool parking with all you guys and driving on the track. great ride back except downpoors and loosing a trunk handel.
cant wait to do it again if I do not sell it first.
