FWIW, I only bumped Esther by accident. :D Really!

Gents,
There was a tech session at Ruther's yesterday. Hope you don't mind but I threw a few more invitations out.

Great! Sorry to have to ask, but is Ruther's the same as Northstar? How'd it go?

Ray, yes. John Ruther owns Northstar. Good guy, very friendly, nice cars!

The more the merrier...perhaps with all of us wishing for good weather, the weather outlook will improve. Snow on Saturday! Is this the Cali guys' way of keeping the fun to themselves?

Northstar was a GREAT turnout. The weather played a major role I'm sure. Sparco representatives were there showing their wares. Ruther's famous 10% off sale made him some pretty good money. Racing suits (me) and helmets were flying off the shelves.

Motorwerks provided two Pepper's for test drives. Most people thought they were pretty nice. My concern was their towability. I know they have a 7,700 lb capability, but seemed to have a fairly short wheelbase. To my surprise, the Pepper is actually 1 inch longer that the Range Rover (I am assuming the old style).

Souk, what time are you planning on getting us out to your place?

Jeff, I think between 7:30 and 8 AM is the goal. Since there will be some who will need to get home for afternoon commitments, we want to get on the route early, 8AM. I will leave printed instructions for the late comers if they should miss the parade (and they don't get donuts or homemade cookies!)

hey guys..........just got back home from South Carolina...........wow!! is it beautiful down there.........saw a sweeeeet yellow '76 911 .....clean and perfect!!! We were down there for 4 days!

Looking forward to this Saturday the 29th!!

UPDATE:

ALTHOUGH THE FORECAST SEEMS TO BE IMPROVING FOR THIS SATURDAY, I WANT EVERYONE TO BE READY FOR A LAST MINUTE CANCELATION. PLEASE PASS THE WORD AROUND AS I KNOW THERE ARE SOME FOLKS WHO ARE NOT SCREEN JUNKIES LIKE MYSELF.


One last thing...you California guys suck! :D :D Give us a break and send some good weather our way!

Tell me about it Souk! I flew into Minneapolis yesterday. Not as bad as predicted but they still got 4" of snow. I am very questionable for tomorrow....have some brake work to do that might interfere with the drive.

Well, it won't be raining or snowing, but it will be cooler than I would like.

This is the Saturday forecast for the area.

Jeff, if you have heat :) and a brakes, you must come.

Anyone who will be coming and I did not send directions to, e-mail me @, soukus@comcast.net for directions.

LOL! Sam I am going to over load the server with mad pictures come Sunday. Thanks for the inspiration.

I'm getting a warm feeling already :D .......I'll have a few memory cards handy for when those girls show up :D.

Well, maybe the Toro SnowThrower girls will show up!

Boy this is degrading fast... I already told you all, I am installing my wipers so it WON'T rain or snow. If I leave the off it WILL!

It's about time this thread took on a "Chicago" flair! Babes, bars and Bud...come on summer!

I get the first shot at the chubby one who looks like she's wasted (easy target). :p

Who wants me to bring my sister?

Ahh, Kevin, the "taking one for the team" trick...works everytime... :D

Jeff, a little Lincoln Park action on the drive would be nice...can you (or anyone) bring some Trixies to keep the single guys warm? :)

(Ok lets see how long before we get OT'd :)

Man I hope my lady doesn't read this thread.
