Still trying to get out of my commitment for 5/5 that would free me up to get to BG. If I can do that, I'd be in for some.

It's been a while since I was on a strip and I won't have had the Z long, but count me in to up the numbers. My RT and ETs will no doubt be real bad though

Would be nice to be able to have a session just to ourselves - I don't mind which day it is. (I voted for all day on the wednesday though)

rkreigh · 02-08-2007

folks,

we are way short and need to drum up support. I know wed is a tough day for most, but it's the only day that can work this year for "Corvette only" drags.

it's $2,000 for even for a half day, so to get the cost reasonable we'll need 40-50 folks that are willing to prepay.

sure hope we can do it!! I think the most realistic is wed afternoon half day unless we get enough die hards that will pony up for all day.

with as many as 50-70 cars, we would be able to make quite a few laps in 5 hours or less.

Well, here's the deal Keith....I can probably get outta that commitment deal but the truth is I might have to sell Blue.

I gotta lot going on right now as wifey starts a new business venture 3/1, we're in the process of an Int'l adoption, and my employer is in the process of being acquired by the end of Spring

So....a lot of uncertainty for sure. Unfortunately much depends on how things go the next few months. I probably won't know if I can go or not until about 3-4 weeks before the Gathering. 2 things are for sure...whether I get to BG this year or not, I'll remain a member of the Registry....and if I do have to sell my baby, it won't be the last Z that I ever own.

GrayZ · 02-09-2007

damn..peaves...sorry to hear about your issue's...we had the same
around here...wife lost job..of 17 years.
{4 months ago}.
.but many friends at that time
told us..one door closes another opens...she was just offered a position
with another company...closer to home...same money..less headache's
so we'll say a little prayer at our house..for something good to happen @
your house...so we can have that dinner...@ Bowling Green
