Anyone from the source going to the Nats? August 24th-26th

Trans Am Nationals Link

The 93 is getting painted as we speak. Still mulling over the graphics. Hopefully will be done in time....

I was considering it, but I dont know whether Im going to go or not. In 2005 it was a good time!
Pyro97
that's about when classes start so not the best time for a roadtrip for me.

Sorry guys, can't make again this year. sad.gif

Well, the bird is painted now. Shiny black. No graphics for now. No car trailer - that we've been trying to get for oh, 6 or 8 weeks now we've been promised. My brother's car trailer has been "borrowed" and nobody seems to know where it is, not that it's in any shape to pull my baby on an 11 hour drive. grrrrr.

have to miss this year...rumor is dayton chapter of firebird club will only go thru 25th year and this is the 23rd.
Formyla
25years only - thats not good

I'm scared to leave - last time I did Katrina tore up the place while I was gone....

It was really good to meet a bunch of y'all in 05 and maybe next year - this year there ia a wedding and an API cert to tend too.

So Bonnie - you got a truck?
I'm wanting an aluminum car trailer but will probably end up with a steel one.
SassySue09
From the sounds of it it looks like we all need to save up some money so we can all go next year and the following year since those two might be the last two years.

Formyla, that's right, when you came to T/A Nats Katrina tried to blow and wash everything away down there didn't she? I'd still try to come next year if I were you, I don't think something like that could happen twice to you.
formulabird89
That's right, formy. Lightning never strikes twice.......or does it?

There's really nothing else terribly attractive about riding out to Ohio in the dead of August other than the cars (and the people of course!). I would love to make it to the STARS show sometime, but unfortunately it falls in the busy part of our season.

No truck yet, still draggin my butt, holding out for the better deal. I want to get a true invoice deal and I think the dealership in town is trying to charge me too much.
One of my customers works for a chevy dealership. I may just deal through them, even though they're 1 1/2 hours away.
Formyla
Twice -maybe yes, maybe not
We have something brewing down there right now...
If I get to go again it will be in Old Yeller and even tho its slow progress its still comming along..

1.5 hour is worth $3K? yes I think so
Now a days you should be able to do most of it over the phone and net. Good luck Bonnie!

So your in for 08 Sue?
SassySue09
I hope you get ole Yeller done for 08. I'd love to see what you've done to her. Haven't been able to get the stuff that you need yet. wink.gif

As long as there isn't a major disaster or something, you can bet that I'm gonna try to be there in 08.
Pyro97
if it's still around then, put me down for 2011 or something. I might be done with school then dry.gif
Formyla
Pyro, 4thtimes Charm said 09 may be the last year sad.gif
