Anyone near or not so near. Great time for all. He and his wife are great hosts. And she is seriously funny.

Hmm. Very tempting. It might be a challenge for me because I have plans the following weekend. I had a great time last time.

Tony, thanks for hosting! Looking forward to seeing everyone.

Anyone within a few hours drive should consider this. Old hats know. Any new folks that need minor ‘fixes’ or want some tips should come over.

Real deal is the food!

So, at the risk of sounding daft, the date is 10/26/2019, right? I'd hate to show up a week early or late.

I'm leaning towards coming, and might try to get some help installing either V2V Bars or C4 Beam Plates. I've had both sitting around for a long time waiting for some free time to install them. You guys might help me finally get around to it.

Russ yes on the 26th of Oct, we eat at 1200. There is no time limit on the stay over, when we get hungry we will eat again and maybe a bon fire.



text me at 334 379- forty three hundred for my address.

If anyone arrives on friday evening you are welcome to come by and hang out in my shop. I will be prepping for the BBQ.

What time might things start on Saturday morning?

At this point I'm leaning towards driving to Enterprise Friday after work (4 hours) and checking into a motel, then heading over to your place Saturday AM, and probably heading back home Saturday evening.

But, I'm considering different options ...

There are no planned Sunday activities, right?

Thanks, again for hosting. I know it will be a fun time.

I'll be awake early, 0900 is a good time to come by and hang out on Saturday. I'll be smoking the brisket by 1000.

No scheduled events for Sunday, just recovery.

Looking forward to it! I’ll try to get there late morning.

Does anyone that is coming have any minor maintenance issues? I’m betting there will be enough talent to assist.

I'm bringing C-Beam plates in case we can install them, but I'm not expecting it - just a nice-if-we-can.

My car is up on jack stands now, doing a few things, and I may have my V2V bars already installed before I leave for Tony's. They seem pretty straight forward.

I had a struggle getting the oil pan drain plug off. Had to use a special tool.

I've had a gasoline smell lately, and think I've seen drips, so I'm dropping the spare tire to see if I can find a problem.

This upcoming event has been good to nudge me into getting some things done on the ZR-1.

Tony,

To you and your wife and friends who put this event on I Thank You... Great food Great company. Was Great to see some old friend I have not seen in years and of coarse some Great ZR-1's.

Now contrary to popular beliefs after driving in rain most the way home and a close inspection while cleaning up today, no melting or deformed body panels.:confused:

Did I say I had a Great time...

Man, I can still taste that wonderful barbeque. Thank you, again, for hosting this great event.

And also thanks to everyone there who offered help and suggestions regarding my yellow ZR-1. I picked up a few good tips and I'm headed to Jerry's web site in a few minutes to see if he's got some things I need/want.

Steve (WeGone) let me drive his car with Haibeck power upgrades and it was really strong, not to mention near perfect condition all around. I think it needs an aftermarket shifter, tho. :-)

I drove home with my new V2V bars hooked up. I can't say for sure they made a huge difference, but the car felt a little more solid.

My ZR-1 didn’t melt in the rain either.
