We are proud to announce that www.ls2.com is a proud sponsor of the Memorial Day event in Atlanta.

Over 300 F-Bodies show up in Atlanta during the 3 day week end.

There is a mini banner on the side and a large banner will pop up at the top of the forums at times.


If you are in the area, stop in and say hi!

I'll be there this year with the Turbo Z28.

Sorry, Atlanta is a "dry" city. No one may drink alcohol in Atlanta.

The only exception to that alcohol rule is that on even numbered days you may consume a 1 keg volume of any drink of your choice per person and on odd numbered days where you may do a 2 keg volume.

Atlanta likes to do things in moderation. :D

Wait for a few days. The hotel accomodations will be posted on the G8 site. They get a "Group" rate for this.

Sure, but my wife might get a little miffed. She's not nice when she's miffed! She's downright dangerous in that mode. No dangerous is not accurate... um... deadly... no... merciless... no... hostile... no... a killing machine... Hm.... that might be the correct term, yes killing machine.

For those debating - the weekend is a BLAST. It's amazing how many people you'll meet and the cars that come! :eek:

This will be my 4th year in attendance! :D

I'm not saying for sure...

But I may..... or may not... be in attendance.

There is a possibility that all three of the owners of this board will be onsite for this event.

Man, this is going to be a tough crowd! The people bring their own beer and get majorly shitfaced in the parking lot. People have been know to remain in the parking lot for days on end in a drunken stupor.

Good, we like nice cars.


Oh, by the way, do you realize that you have a link to :turd:.com on your home page and not one to this site. I'm sure that is an oversite on your part and was purely unintentional! :p

I'm north of Atlanta and would like to get out and meet some of you guys and check out your rides. I probably won't be able to get off work but I work pretty early so I should be able to show up mid/late afternoon.

Did I miss where this is going to be held or is there not a set location yet? I misses the prior gatherings.

Same hotel as last year. We are waiting for the F8 board to post registration information and a "Group Rate" number to get the hotel rooms.

Whoah! My new town. You know I'll be there representin.

If anyone needs help with atlanta hotels/directions, let me know, I live pretty close to downtown. If my gf goes to her summer school, you can crash at my place. Lots of big parking spots.

Well, Andy promised that the F8 site would be up and running with all of the information by or during the week of March 21st.

It looks like he missed the "by" and is running out of the "during" quite quickly! :D He's a busy lad.

Keep checking on the F8 site daily and when it is updated, you can register for the event and make hotel reservations using the "Group" rate.

I'd love to go, but the gf has forbidden me from going. I don't think she wants me to be away from her for that long. :o Plus there's a few other reasons I can't go, but she still won't let me. :(

03-27-2004, 09:37 PM

I won't be there (too many NMRA races), but I highly recommend anybody that has never gone to get out there and make it (those that have already been there will surely be back). I have very, very fond memories of Gathering I....

And Gathering II....
http://members.cox.net/bobcosby/stang/images/gather1.jpg

I was the "Official Mustang" of the events - even had a sign made up for the back of my trailer (that I towed behind my Mustang) just for the occasion....

Everybody was really cool, and had a great time with my lighthearted joke.

Be there!

I have a laptop too, but do you have wireless internet that can be used anywhere? :p I would too if I could afford the $80/month price tag for unlimited usage (anything less then that would be pointless due to the overage charges I'd be hit with).

that does me no good while I'm on the road. I have a business to take care of, I can't be away from the internet for a full day while driving down there. :(
