Re: another question..... Wayne did you make the LSPBC car show Saturday night?? If I missed you I'm sorry. I've got a business proposition for you :laugh: I still would like to take both cars, my problem is of course having two drivers but I would like to pull the GN on a trailer, not drive it down. I can get the trailer but I can't get a truck I noticed in your sig you have a Z71:beer Is this something you would be interested in? You could either drive my GS or your truck pulling the GN. I will take care of all the gas! I have insurance on both cars. Let me know. Thanks
Re: Re: good deal How soon we forget.... Wasnt but a few days ago the plan was to sell the truck:bglasses: Let me make sure that I am going 100% before you put 100% faith in me to do that for you. I have a concern I might have regarding my truck. I have a 3" body lift, and with that they put in 3" spacers under the draw-tite, so I wanna make sure that things are secure before I put a REAL car on it. I put bigger tires on the thing and have had a vibration too, so I might not be able to keep with the 70mph convoy torrid pace.Anyhow..... Yes, I made the car show. Was that your 72 Stage 1? Was looking for more 455s than that. I was wearing a shirt that had a GN and a yellow GSX on it that said, "Best of both Worlds".Was with wife and son. I did join the club while I was there, but no T-shirts were available. Said they would catch me at the "X-Bash" You want me to call you on your cell phone I saw listed when I have a better answer for ya, or another #? o No: We will figure something out for ya:TU:
Help Wanted!! Hey Phil, My Dad and I will be driving up early Saturday morning. I am sure we will be there between 10 and 11. Whatever help you need just let me know. I will definetely help you out. I am not really planning on running in the competition, just wanna run it down the track a couple of times. Just six more days, huh!
Wife says now you walked in the registeration room complaining about allergies....:Brow: Was it you?o No: I could have carried a allergy conversation with ya. I took an allergy @zz whippen this weekend:blast: , and lost.
Re: Re: Re: good deal Sorry I missed you, I 'm so busy working the show, I don't have time to stop and enjoy. And yes that was my Red 72. Last month's show we had 3 BB cars show up including mine. Sometimes it's hard to get those guys to show up with there cars, the TR's do dominate in attendance. I knew that we had signed up 2 new members, I was wondering if one might have been you. Welcome aboard :beer The shirt sounds familiar but sorry... I was so wrapped up with the 50/50 & registration and then counting votes, plus I was feeling a little under the weather I just don't remember. BTW Don't sell the Truck ou: ou: ou: ou: I'm on vacation all week with not much to do but relax and run around when I have somewhere to go :bglasses: My cell is the best way to reach me 214 629 7429. One more thing sorry about the T-shirts, I forgot to bring themou: If we hook up during this week I'll bring you one. Thanks.
