Thats right folks we are having a fall get together on OCT 11

We could not get the same shelter (#2) so we did the next best thing and got shelter #3. Who woulda thought the fall would be so booked up :D

We will be at shelter number 3 this time. When you enter the park, make the first right and on the left will be the parking area.

Cool! Where exactly is this park? I dont seem to remember a signup thread for this one...

It is on Bringle Ferry Rd in Salisbury

I believe there are details on the spring meet threads in this area as well.

We just made this informational thread yesterday, so yes you are correct on not seeing a sign up thread yet..

Thanks Liz.

Well, I'll be there, or at least try my hardest.

It'll take me 2hr 31min to get there. Oh well. It'll only cost me 3 gallons of gas for 144mi. :D

08-22-2008, 08:18 PM

gchemist the race is at 7:25pm ;) you got time to swing by.. our house is 20 min from the speedway and the park is 10 min from the house.
Either way have a great vaca here and good luck with the job. We have several get togethers a year and a bunch of members all around this area.


dave that just stinks, but understood. we will miss ya.

redneck, the honeymoon is over by then.. no excuses :lol: seriously do NOT get yourself in the doghouse over this, she was cool about the last one between everything else. Try to make it, we have no boyscouts etc this time and will actually be able to hang out n enjoy the day

Liz
08-27-2008, 04:22 PM
nor is our 67 :) its not a good excuse. We have folks show up with imports, bikes, I believe Lou was in a scion from what I recall etc. I drove my camaro to one and the yukon to another. It doesn't matter what you use to get there, just get there :)

My blazer is not on the road, I would love to be able to drive it there.

Hey All,
Finally got the young son married off and by then he'll have five weeks of basic training behind him. That said... life is settling down for me since the wedding. I SHOULD be there. Never know what Uncle Sam may throw my way.
Thanks for the PM, Liz!

Last year everyone started arriving around 10am, and we had burgers going on the grill n food ready by 12:30. A good portion of us that didn't have a long drive to get back home stayed till they dang near kicked us out! We'll be camping there that weekend so we'll be around the whole time and after. I can't wait it's gonna be a blast!

OKAY!! I'm game!! I'll talk my friends to drive out for lunch. The Lowe's race track is so close. I should arrive in Kernsville on the 8th.

Who wants to be my contact? We'll have GPS so we wont get lost. PM me your phone number. I'll send you mind. I would love to see everyone's ride. Unfortunately, I'm too far to drive mine.

Is anyone a member of ChevyTalk? I'm a moderator for S-10's and 73-87 trucks on the site.

I was hoping to make a trip down but just got too much going on to get it done. Will be at Maggie valley in the spring if nothing rip, ravels, or breaks. Have fun and stay safe.

Andy4639
10-08-2008, 02:31 AM
Well it looks like I'm going to miss it also. I have a golf cart in the garage that I need parts for and I have them at the beach waiting on me. Ocean Lakes campground is also having there cart show on the 11 so I guess I'm headed to the beach. Haven't seen my daughter in 3 weeks either, she lives there so I guess I'll see you all next time hopefully.
Hope everyone has a safe trip there and home.

Liz
10-08-2008, 11:35 AM
The weather is looking iffy, and the attendance is going to be iffy as well :D BUT we will still be there and have the grill fired up. If it rains some we have shelter, they are calling for an iffy morning and great afternoon. We have had get togethers with less then a dozen and more then we can count and either way works :) All that can come, just show up and have some fun.
I hope the local folks will not be scared away by the forecast.



Ron the kids kept asking me if Hannah was coming to visit. I told them most likely not and they could all see Mr Ron and family in the spring. They said to say hi to everyone.

10-09-2008, 11:06 AM
I'm out :uhmk: :(

I'm still exhausted from last week (a 5 hour round trip drive in a rickety old truck won't help that), I have to work this weekend to catch up from missing last week :crazy: and the 67 decided to develop a fuel leak at the filler neck that conveniently drips gas onto the exhaust if I put more than 1/4 tank in the truck at a time :banghead:

I look forward to making it next spring along with Maggie Valley for the first time evah! :metal:
