Uggg! 1 week to go, I finally have Matt's car all set. He can detail it himself! Saturday I have to do some quick repairs and Mods to Tim's Monte and then the rest of the weekend I get to spend on my SS! Still need to change the oil, adjust the carb and a few details. Plus finish detailing it.
But this trip will be awesome!!!! Can't wait!!

Frank, As of right now, The plan is to leave next Friday Morning, meet Tim in Rochester then head to NC. We figure we should be at the hotel around 7 depending on traffic. Saturday is the Dale Earnhardt Show, then were hitting one of the cruise nights and a few scenic spots. Sunday, Lots of stops in the Charlotte area and of course a cruise night. Monday heading home. Tim has this whole trip planned. I'm just happy to be part of this.
Jim, I know I will. Just finding the time is getting hard. Sunday will be the day it gets finished. Monday I work late and Wednesday I have a training class till 10. Thursday, I plan on spending the evening with Diana since I won't see her till Tuesday.
As for Tim, I have to give it the once over, recharge his AC and install a few Mods we developed to his car.

sweeet, first page :) Me and the wife are back at my moms house now. Finally moved out of the apartment. temporary until august.. Already not liking it here. I don't have my normal couch to lounge in!!! same with the privacy..
Well, Tim's a happy camper! He has AC again!! But I guess it was the least I could do since he nearly passed a cheeseburger through his nose at lunch. LOL!
Wish this rain would stop! I need to get the car out and finished!

What a trip. Rolled back home at 1am this morning. Have the day off to clean up the car. Work wed and Thursday. Then back in the car for another road trip
Holy Crap! This trip was more EPIC than we ever dreamed it could have been!! The Monte Hunters may not have gotten any awards at the show, but we seemed to have VIP passes for everything else!
We listened to NASCAR history, saw NASCAR history and even made NASCAR history!!!!!! Along with our typical shenanigans. It will take a few nights to put all we did into posts with pictures.
This is a trip that most likely will be done again, but will never be duplicated!!! Thanks to Tim for spear heading this whole trip! It was something we will remember for life!!!

I got 2 side jobs to do and have to get the cars cleaned up. The 01 is filthy and hasn't been cleaned in weeks. The 86 ain't much better! Plus Diana wants me to get some of my junk pile cleaned up.

Tried that, it blew away in the last storm. Besides, I hope to take it to the scrap yard in a few weeks and get some cash to buy a new compressor. Too busy this weekend, then next weekend is the swap meet and the Rolex Race at the Glen.

Then Sunday Back to Watkins glen for the Sahlen's Six at the Glen, IT was one of the best races! Not that we really watched much of the race, we were really more interested in finding new things, LOL! I'll try to get some pics up by the end of the week

Jim, I'm not sure. We were talking about that this weekend at lunch. We'll figure something out one of these days.
As for this holiday, I have a few vehicles that need some attention. And I still need to get the window trim painted and my tire rack in the shed repaired. Don't worry, I will be busy!

grill and yard work tomorrow. Bought a variable speed Mark VIII harness, cut out the old wiring, and the new harness doesn't work. Time to scramble and get something installed for cooling. Maybe it's time to get the Intrepid fans I bought 2 years ago installed.
