anybody interested in a year end get together before we stash away our Marauders for a long winters nap? We've done a White Castle Run, Twin Peaks, Dell Rea's Chicken Basket before to name a few....post your thoughts with a tentative date and lets try to do it.......

My car has no naps - I'd be glad to try to make an event. Any day will work as well as possibly not work so it doesn't matter to me - I'll just try to make what other's come up with..

How about the Portillo's on Golf Rd. in Schaumburg on Saturday, 11/18 at 2 pm? The place is usually a mad house so 2 pm is after the lunch rush.

Last tournament before twins go to college - not missing it. Next year I'll have plenty of time on my plate - I'll even take you out for a sammich.

I’ve been there plenty of times. Hell, I haven’t even been supercharged in 14 months! On top of that, a non tuned low compression block.. I’ve got money, I’m just burned out and enjoying life in other ways. [emoji16]

Ouch but good to hear you are doing well and enjoying other stuff. :beer:

Having trouble finding options on half decent machine shops, any suggestions especially any that could pull the motor too?

This is the only place I’ve used and they took REALLY good care of me. I highly doubt they’ll pull it though because of a tight shop but who knows?

Sunday works.

I'm frantically trying to finish up some detail work on the paint. Right now there is wax splatter literally everywhere. The car, my wife's car, the walls, the dog....
Wet sanding and machine polishing is way more work than meets the eye. No wonder it costs so much when done right. (ie. Not done at the local car wash for $200)

Sunday 2 pm
Portillos
611 E. Golf Rd between Meacham and Roselle Rd.
Schaumburg

I have homeowners show up at my construction site, think they are experts on everything, and start picking apart the slightest thing. So I have to come and hold their hand and teach them how a house is put together, burp them and put them down for a nap.

Again, sorry I did not come. I was not happy about it.
