What cha think guys?

ToySnakePMC 12-07-2015 10:25 PM

Yes sir, it stays on my to-do list about every year. I had too many other distractions last year and missed going to dinner with the group and going for a run (away from the track) if y'all did such a thing that Saturday evening.

Fun stuff for sure. We had a great turnout too, but hope we can top it this year!

charchri4 12-07-2015 10:44 PM

Yeah I got really side tracked last year when my son showed up but hoping to go again this year.

tbone heller 12-08-2015 10:48 AM

I'm in.

Five-o-joe 12-08-2015 10:04 PM

I'm in. Looking forward to meeting you all in person. If there is a Ga. Caravan leaving from anywhere near powder springs, I'd like to tag along...

SupaDupaSteve 12-09-2015 06:24 AM

I really want to go and this gives me a deadline to get my car driving by.

stng_96 12-10-2015 07:44 AM

If my car is finished and has a few miles on it I will go....perhaps I can tow it down even if its not ready

ToySnakePMC 12-13-2015 09:58 AM

Looking like some nice hardware may be on display with this group so far! Stng.., it looks to me like you'll be ready! But even having an in-progress car there would be good for those to look at who are waiting to take the plunge!

You guys will love The Mitty - there's so much to see and take in.

Five-o-joe 12-16-2015 04:38 PM

After weeks of fabrication and getting all the details the way that I wanted them, I finally finished my vortech SC install on my SBF monster.....

I'll be bringing it to the Mitty.....

I look forward to meeting you all and checking out all the cool cars.....

Joe

If Im not on a gig, I'll be there. Hoping I can make it as it seems like a ton of fun.

After crunching some numbers, I don't think it's possible for my car to be ready by then. Unless I win the lotto.. But, I will be there!

Nonsense we have all seen it run! Besides exhaust, hood, brakes so many parts are optional you know.. :)

Tell you want I'll bring a tow strap and roll with you if you are unsure of it still. Not that it would be terribly useful since it's much more likely I'd need the tow!

I just posted 4/20 to 4/26 off work but given what my commission statement has looked like the last 6 months I'll probably be in full drummer mode by then saying hey can I crash on your couch to everyone I see!

mrmustang 12-18-2015 05:44 PM

Might get down there on Friday, have Jeff Foxworthy tickets for Sunday :D

Well Jim, I have to say that I really value your opinion, but if you think brakes are optional then apparently my judgement is a bit misplaced.....And if you pick Marion as a stopping point again this year, theres a spare bedroom for you to use here for sure.

charchri4 12-26-2015 10:24 PM

Bummer. The bum gave my daughter a ring for Christmas and they are talking a September wedding. This is not going to be a good year...

ToySnakePMC 12-27-2015 12:18 AM

Jim.., your Christmas was FULL of surprises from what it sounds like! Congratulations to you and your growing family. Hopefully, you can still sneak in a car-guy weekend in April - maybe in the northern part of Georgia... Just sayin'...

stng_96 12-28-2015 09:23 AM

Hmmm, interesting take on this time in your life Jim. Does this mean you are for sure out? As I said before, I've got a room for you if you want it, thatll save you some right?

charchri4 12-28-2015 11:30 AM

LOL well it could be congratulations if I wasn't footing the bill! The guy is a decent sort but has never seen anything close to a successful biblical marriage modeled (other than mine from a distance) and is a quite short on life skills. We've talked a few times over the years they have dated and he doesn't understand even the most basic concepts of his role as a husband or oneness in a relationship.

So this next 6 months is going to be all about coming along side him and building him up to be successful in his new life. If he was a car guy it would be easy I would just bring him along but he would rather have a root canal than go to a V8 Miata gathering. So I'm headed into his world to connect and find those teachable moments but if it's at all possible I would love to come to Atlanta again!

stng_96 12-28-2015 12:08 PM

Well good luck to you, I'm sure if anyone can straighten him out it will be you.

tbone heller 12-29-2015 08:36 AM

For $60 they can get married at the courthouse. :makeout:

charchri4 01-08-2016 08:12 PM

LOL I already offered them 5 grand to elope and if they would have taken it would not be selling a lens and pondering this trip so hard!

I couple of guys I sim race with from Dallas and points south are going to make the trip. I did the same write up there I did here and they thought it looked great. So I suppose we better start a real thread with info, who's going and contact Keith to see if FM will roll out the carpet again.

charchri4 01-13-2016 01:21 PM

You guys see this? https://www.facebook.com/events/566147863536296/

Unk577 01-22-2016 07:05 AM

I'll be there, don't know what I'll be driving but I'll find something

portabull 01-23-2016 11:34 AM

hope to be there with the lfx miata we're building.

ToySnakePMC 01-23-2016 01:29 PM

The more - the merry! Look forward to seeing my first LFX Miata. ...That being the hot little V6, right?

And Jim, I gotta figure out how to get back to my Facebook acct... Been inactive for 3+ yrs. Hope that FB page helps get the word out.
