We should all meet on saturday at the Nationals. How about 12 noon at the "MM" paking area. Zeus and I will be in that class and it is usually on the main parking area right in the middle?

We would get a chance to greet each other .:cool: :drive:

[ZeusJr]

I thought we had mentioned about meeting to go to QS&L on Friday? :confused:

Either way I'm game... :D

[oldgregg]

How would you know if your in custom, modified or heavy modified?

Rob, you've seen my car, what class will I be in, if I make it that is?

[smiley]

friday dinner sounds good to me! it will be easier to meet up and not as busy.... we can then pic meeting times for sat if we want. i say we meet and then caravan to qs&l...... what time???

also - don't forget - group pic on sunday so don't leave until we get them!!!

[Chief Pontiac]

I want to meet it really doesnt matter when.:) Dave and Rob I have your #s.Hey I thought we met up early Friday afternoon last year?

[prince xizor]

QS&L? MM? I assume MM is a section of a parking lot? You might have to explain as I am not from Ohio. Also, is the holiday inn in tipp city a good place to stay?

As far as the Holiday Inn in Tipp City I dont know.You might have to use the one that has rooms available.

[smiley]

i updated the first post in this thread.

i'm assuming most of us will head to the tipp city cruise in on sat night. do we want to all cruise to that together?

how about lunch on sat?

[oldgregg]

I am gonna try for a Friday arrival, but it's looking like I might make it there for Saturday.

[TheSilverSurfer]

Butch--you have a long way to go to get there!

[Chief Pontiac]

I am glad I dont have to drive that far.:(

[ZeusJr]

He drove to Atlanta in May.. This is like a drive to the store for him... :lol:

[blue02formula]

I should be in Tipp City 6pm on Saturday. :D

[02 TransAm_Ky]

See you all on Sat. morning. YEAH!!!!

Good--have a safe trip.

[blue02formula]

Anyone know how good or bad the Travelodge in Tipp City is?

[ZeusJr]

:dunno: I stay @ the Red Roof Inn in Englewood. It's only a few miles away and offers a good price... There are a few people that stay there as well... :yup:

[smiley]

do we want to do the group pic on sunday? i was thinking 2 pics.... one with all the cars spread out. then use sitting together with the cars in the background....

if we wait till sun night we can have trophies in the pics (if oyu guys win any ;) ). but i odn't know how long the awards last, i'd hate to wait till sun night and it gets too late and dark out.

:dunno:

[blue02formula]

I reserved us a room at the Best Western in Troy. The wife may get Saturday morning off, she finds out today, and we can get there late Friday night. Sunday sound good for group pic's to me. They're calling for scattered showers I hope it dosen't rain. Hope to meet some of you there.:D

[smiley]

yea - weather report lookd good all week... now they're talking scattered showers every day :( i don't drive my cars in the rain....

[Fastpace]

Looks like it's suppose to rain Friday night through Saturday morning. Showingclear aside from that. Group pictures after the awards may be a little late. They typically don't get done with awards till like 5:30 and some of us will have to be heading home right afterwards. I would say meeting up before the Tipp City cruise in would be best and then we could all cruise in together and park together in Tipp City.

My camera can do panoramic pictures and I can do that to make a banner type thing of all the cars.

Im hoping to try to make it early enough to come out to QS&L on Friday. I may not be bringing the TTA out there but I might show up in either my brother 98 TA or in our truck.

Lets all just worship the rain gods and hope it doesn't rain so we can have a nice cruise and get together.

[Chief Pontiac]

I will be there around 4:00 pm Friday so I will see you guys there then.:)
Just be possitive and pray it dont rain.They have changed the forcast since Tues so maybe they will be wrong. I dont drive my car in the rain either.:D

[gillbot]

I'll be there all day Fri, Sat and Sun....

I live right down the road! :D

Edit, Stop by the DaytonFbody booth and say Hi!

My Friday arrival looks good.
I'll PM Rob my cell so he can contact me so I know where to meet up with you all.
I've had ZERO time to prep my car so to me it looks like crap & is not ready for this show.

I also don't have a room reserved so anyone know where I should try to get one?

I reserved my room last week so I doubt you'd have an issue getting a room. It's the next exit down the highay from the airport and is like a 5 min drive..

Yes nice talking with you and Rob and meeting Butch, Smiley and the other Dave. Next time I'll get down there on Friday, so I can do more of the festivities.

I have alot of good pic's, the new camera works great, I'll finish adding them to my photobucket album tonight.
I'll email you the big copies of your car if you would like. I have a couple good ones of Rob's and Butch's cars also I'll send them if they want a super size photo, Photo bucket crops them to 1mg.

Did any of you guys win anything?

[TheSilverSurfer]
