OOP"S ! We have plans for next weekend. BE safe and have a great time.

"Uncle Joe"

Linda Cook, The Executive Vice-President of Eagles Canyon Raceway has confirmed our visit to the track as part of our Cruise. This will add about an hour to our cruise time but will be very interesting and provide a personal, onsite visit and track tour.

My outstanding weekend in College Station just might have cost me this weekends activities. The car is back up on jacks, and I can't figure out the clutch problem I thought I fixed. Also, the oil drip is starting to increase. Looks like I need to take it to a pro for some help.

If I show, I'll go. If not, have fun damn-it!

I am not able to make this cruise. :CRY:
please plan one more- before it gets too hot!!! :eek:

see ya'll Saturday tho' at AER. :)
k

Um, I'm only counting The Parkers, Jdean, Jim W and myself as drivers. Plus reliable Sammy as a passenger.
Do I have that right, 4 cars?
Come on folks, the rain is supposed to break this weekend! Let's get out there while it's still in the 80's!

Five Cars Counting Me And Nathan

I'm still in, Miles .. will wear my motorcycle rain suit if necessary:D PM me how to get to your house and when to be there:)

Sam

I spoke to Jim Creel and he said he was going to try and make it as well, so that brings us up to 6 cars. What about Matt and David with their Ford GT's?
Also, what about Randy Riley, John Ross, Fred Busy and others?


:3DSMILE: :3DSMILE: :3DSMILE:

all I thought for sure I was going to be able to make this (i.e. finish working on my car) but I lost four sections of fence wedensday night... and finishing the car and fixig the fence is not going to happen

Hope you all have fun. with luck I will see you all ;)

Sorry Jim,

Can't make this one...just too soon after the last for me and I have a conference coming up in a week that I will be gone for.

Have fun.

Matt

I'm trying to get off work so I can tag along. Will have my wife or son with me. Hope to see you at the Cracker Barrel.
Tom

Sorry to report that I cannot make the trip on Sunday now. You all will have a great time.

Hope to make the AER on Saturday still..

I'm sorry some of you can't make it - you will be missed. The good news is more are adding their names to the list. Jim Creel and his friend are confirmed now and Don Wallace and Tom Meadows as well. Don Barnes is going to drive a chase vehicle, his F350 with some 5 gallon jugs of fuel, tools and a tow strap! At AER tomorrow I'll see who else we can convince to join in.

The current list of confirmed or potential confirmed is: Madmiles, Parkerpower (2), Tom Slick, Tom Meadows, Steve Seitz (?), Jim Creel, Jim's friend, Don Wallace, Don Barnes and the Woodards. That's 11 vehicles so far.

:3DSMILE: :3DSMILE: :3DSMILE:

tomorrow is the AER event!!! I totally spaced that out! I will try and come by later in the morning but I don't think it will be with the car :CRY:

Guess I should be working on it right now and not working :LOL:

Jim,

Sorry, the parts didn't come in Friday. So I'm a no show. But we might drop by AER this morning. We have to give Jay a present, if he's there.

Jim,
Are we still planning to leave the Cracker Barrel at 9:30? I think we'll have breakfast and want to get there early enough.
Tom

All the above leads me to believe we can get the cruise in with minimal chance of rain so see everyone at the Cracker Barrrel. I'll take one last look at the forecast early tomorrow morning. If there is a significant change, I'll post something. Otherwise, if you see no new posting consider it a go.

:3DSMILE: :3DSMILE: :3DSMILE:

Wow Jim, you're ready to be a meteoritist.

Plan on LEAVING Cracker Barrell at 9:30. If you roll in at 9:15 and say "Let's eat" then get your blueberry pancakes To Go. :LOL:

Miles,

I'm not sure about a meteoritist, but maybe a meteorologist!:eek: Ha Ha,
See you in the morning.
