Hello everyone, October is just around the corner so I thought I would put a shout out for a reminder. You are invited to enjoy great Texas Bar-B-Q in Alabama along with other ZR-1 owners. So if the drive is not too far for you I would be honored if you can make it. It was a great time last year. I am located in Enterprise, Alabama and if you need my address or hotel info please just PM for the info.

You don't have to own a ZR-1 one to attend but if you have one. :dancing

If you would just move to Atlanta you would be closer. Hope you can make it, I would love to feed you some of my Texas Bar-B-Q.:icon_thum

Great John, see you on Friday pre-BAR-BQ get together. Your hood is awesome.

Recommendations for a hotel? Thanks.

Recommendations for a hotel? Thanks.

All Hotels are with in 5-10 miles from my house. Enterprise is a very small town. My recommendation is the Holiday Inn if it is in your budget, it is about 5 miles from my house.

Alright people, I am officially back in the states and preparing for a fun time for all. Finally drove my Z since May, what a blast.

[Halinmontana]

Tony, I'll see you on Saturday. I am bringing no-flex system so we'll have one project to work on and install. Thanks again for hosting. Hal

[Tony Davila]

We will be ready, should be a blast.

[aafc]

Hal,
When i installed the no flex system, i painted the heads of the bolts
flat black before installing the system. They blend with the black bottom
of the car and are hard to see when installed.
See you at Tony's.

Maybe I'll bring my uninstalled R&D X-Brace, (if it fits easily in the car), not really expecting for us to install, but, who knows. Maybe it will be handy to have the extra parts. I've never unwrapped it from the shipping packaging. Bought it last winter, and been thinking I'd install it this coming winter.

[Tony Davila]

6 Days to go, weather should be good too.

See you guys then.

[RussMcB]

Tony, 2 questions: What can I bring? (answer via PM if you prefer), and what are the starting and ending times for this event? Thanks.

Really wanted to be there Tony, but my Z's still under suspension rehab and still waiting on my wheels. Also can't get out of work. Taking some extra call to cover those that can't make it in because of all the flooding. It's a mess over this way! Anyway, extra call = extra mods:cheers::cheers::cheers:

Tony, just wow. I really had a great time yesterday. Your shop is awsome, I actually enjoyed laying on your floor while looking at chassis (unlike my garage). The food was great. Really enjoyed meeting your family. They're great.

Since this is still my first year of ZR-1 ownership, yesterday was a great way to soak up a lot of great technical information. I met some really nice, knowledgeable folks and came away with lots of things I'd like to do to my car. I look forward to hearing Hal's impression of his new chassis bars.

I'll share pics later, when I get them off my phone.

Maybe next year I'll get there for the Friday Tequila Pre-Party. :-)

[Halinmontana]

Tony, I have to echo Russ's praise on a great event at your home this weekend. Lot of knowledge in the group and wish that I could have stayed later into the evening. And the Texas BBQ was EXCELLANT! Thanks again and look forward to next year.

[Tony Davila]

Thanks to all who attended, it was so much fun and the food was out of this world. This was a perfect event for us Southerners to get together to fill the gap between the once a year Gathering at BG. All members should try to get together and enjoy the brotherhood within your region.

Roger that, it is still a GO.

What is the total head count for Saturday 10/20? Do we need to bring sides to grace the table? Thank you Tony for being an excellent host but I do wish all attendees to be gracious guests. Looking forward to the road trip and Z friends.

[Tony Davila]

Steve, I have to cancel due to up coming weather and will move BAMA Q to early spring before BG. I want everyone that was planning to attend to be safe in their travels.



I will repost for the new date.

[precast1]

Tony,

Hope you and your family made it through the storm without any loss of power and no damage to your property. Was looking forward to meeting you as I have met Ted and Steve and both are great guys who have helped me get my car ready for judging.

Thank you for the invite and we look forward to meeting you and your family in the spring.

Thank you,

Tom

[Tony Davila]

Cool, yeah a reschedule is probably best due to all the carnage from this storm. I will reset for spring when it is still cool outside.
