Re: BG 2013 ?
 

Lone Star Z owners!

I'm headed out on Tuesday or Wednesday(worked dictating). I have a room reserved at the Marriott.

I'm planning on trailering my Z. Any others trailering up?

Caravan anyone?

Frank

Re: BG 2013 ?
 

I dont know what the room rate at the Marriott is. However if it is somewhat close to the Holiday Inn in price Breakfast is included and we always do stuff at night with the FBI group.

Re: BG 2013 ?
 

groups coming from Texas, Chicago and "Wazoo" land.

Can't wait!

:cheers:

David

Re: BG 2013 ?
 

So we have FBI, ZOOM, WAZOO, TEXAS. Texas Really needs a name

Re: BG 2013 ?
 

There's also a new Holiday Inn Express at the Scottsville Rd exit. This is the same exit as the Holiday Inn University Plaza. I stayed at the University Plaza Holiday Inn last weekend. Can't wait for May!

Re: BG 2013 ?
 

BoostedmaxPSI Where in Texas are you headed out from?

Re: BG 2013 ?
 

Hey, Frank. I was planning on talking to you about caravaning to BG when we went down to Corey's. My plans were to leave on Tuesday and see if I could get 5 or 6 of us together. I'm suffering from massive depression right now with the absence of the Blue Beast for the last 3 months so I haven't been as diligent about rounding up the Texas group as I was planning on. But, hopefully she'll be ready to pick up here in the next 10 days or so and I'll get my mojo back.

If you're going out I-30 you'll be about 2 miles from my house. It ought to be easy enough to hook up.

The road to BG from just about anywhere in Texas seems to go through Texarkana so anybody that wants to join us can meet us there. Then it's only about 8 hours to BG.

Anyone else from Texas want to join in? There's strength in numbers and a whole lot more fun! As far as that goes, anybody that wants to join from Arkansas could join as well.

Re: BG 2013 ?
 

I live in the DFW area. Little town called Keller, next to Southlake.

Looks like you will be in Flower Mound as a stopping point. I live 15 min from there.

What day will you be leaving? We could sync up at the Bass Pro shop in Grapevine the jump on 635 and pick up Dave in Rowlett before meet up with more folks in Texarkana.

Re: BG 2013 ?
 

Man! Don't let a little pin hole get you down :)

My plan was to leave on Tuesday as well however, if the group is larger for a Wednesday departure then that works for me as well.

At this point I plan on trailering mine up. Could be good insurance for our group.

Re: BG 2013 ?
 

My current plan is to arrive Wednesday and leave Sunday, but I may not be able to get there until Thursday. Have reservations at the Holiday Inn. We'll see when we get closer to May.--Bob

Re: BG 2013 ?
 

Frank and David

New "Dennis" has his car @ Corey's for a few more hp!

I know of 3 other texans going that haven't posted up

:cheers:

David

Re: BG 2013 ?
 

Reserve ASAP . Rooms are going fast. There is a meeting of the blue hairs at the hotel that weekend every year.

Re: BG 2013 ?
 

I'll be arriving on Wed night coming from Central LA. I may run across some of the TX crew in route. I will have the Z in tow. We will have at least 3 Z's from LA coming. I can't wait for May in BG!!! :dancing

Daniel

Re: BG 2013 ?
 

I wish it was just "a" pin hole. Another one popped up in the exhaust port and I've been told it's going to be tough to get to. Hoping to hear something this week. If anybody can fix it these guys can. They do Corey's head work. He says it looks more like a lab than a machine shop.

Anyway, I'd much rather go with The Gang then go alone. Tuesday would be nice, tho. No rush and extra time in case something happens. But, I'll do whatever the group wants to do. (Until we pick a name The Gang is good for me).

SWEET! Dennis PM me if you want. What are you having done?

Looks like we could easily meet up in Memphis. We could do our own Power Tour!

Re: BG 2013 ?
 

I have one for you BBT = Big Boys Texas.

Re: BG 2013 ?
 

Robert, I have one but they wouldn't like it.

Re: BG 2013 ?
 

Dave, did you tell Daniel and Robert about the WART run?

Re: BG 2013 ?
 

Easy there, big fella. We're damn proud of our Redneck heritage. Almost as proud as you are of your Hillbilly heritage. :razz:

Re: BG 2013 ?
 

If you are Military or can get a Gov rate you'll do a little better. I believe I pay $77 per night. You got to call BG direct if the national reservation desk say's the rate is gone... Well, it's worked for me several times...

Cheers,

Re: BG 2013 ?
 

1. I'm not a "hillbilly". I'm from Oklahoma. My grandfather was from Kentucky.

2. I spent the last 19 years in the DFW metroplex where I was based as an airline pilot at DFW airport.

3. I was the Southwest Regional Director for the ZR-1 Net Registry and had a ZR-1 display at the Lone Star Corvette Classic in 2011 with four C-4 ZR-1's and five ZR1's including a 100th Anniversary ZR1 in black. Pictures are on the Net Registry website. Ask the President.

4. I am a graduate of the University of Oklahoma which is where one of the original rednecks lives in Norman, Ok. Big Dog Daddy is what they call him.

5. Where were you when I was looking for ZR-1 owners in North Texas?

I am taking it easy even though they got me scheduled to fly from LGA to MIA tomorrow morning.

Have a good night!

Re: BG 2013 ?
 

Daniel and I know absolutely nothing about a WART run.

Re: BG 2013 ?
 

Roy -

Maybe I'm reading it wrong but did I touch a nerve or something? If so, I apologize. Reading posts can be tricky. Sometimes it's hard to tell if someone is offended or mad or just joking around. I see a lot of I's in your post so it appears as though you felt the need to post your accomplishments for some reason. Again, maybe I read it wrong...


You stated you had a name for the Texas group but that we wouldn't like it. Since a typical stereotype of a Texan usually envolves being a redneck I thought I might bring up the typical stereotype of a hillbilly since your profile shows a KY residency. Kind of tit for tat. If that is a touchy subject again, my apologies.


If you were looking for North Texas Z owners prior to Sept of last year I have a great excuse if you'd be interested in hearing it. If it was after Sept I had no idea you were looking. My bad.


So what's you're suggestion for a name? I can assure you as Texans, we are pretty thick skinned. We can take it. Just don't expect us to take it laying down.

Re: BG 2013 ?
 

Frank, it looks like Russell will be joining us as well. The more the merrier I say. Dan (Combat Doc on CF) hopefully will be joining the club today. I may be able to talk him into going, too.

Re: BG 2013 ?
 

What's the latest on the program and registration?

Re: BG 2013 ?
 

Adding a few things. One is Graham Behan talking about John Lingenfelters impact on the LT5!

Re: BG 2013 ?
 

Cool! (I received my fabulous 2013 shirt today and it ramped me up even more on the Gathering).
