Thanks guys! It's much appreciated. It wouldn't be a trip to Detroit if we didn't see all you guys, and eat tons of steak at Capers. We're looking forward to it.

Let's see, it's August in Michigan. Which means it hot, muggy not at all a joy to be around. How do I know, lived here forever. Also August is WDC. So where else would I be. Sitting in the hot, muggy weather with all my favorite reprobates. Oh, and Dan.

as long as we can stay at the same hotel and the same parking lot [or better] I think I will be there. I had a nice time last year and would definitely love to go back.

Heck, I still got a couple hundred pens left over and need to $ell them!

Same hotel, same location, although the Burger King will be remodeled by then, so the lot will be layed out differently, but essentially the same, only nicer.

Maybe I should check out the MCM section of MMnet more often. I almost missed the stickies for the WDC. I voted yes w/my Marauder for attending. This will be the first WDC for the fiancée and I. Subscribing to the threads as we speak. Now I gotta finish my stereo before August...

Yes it is! I will be signing the contract Monday, and you will all be free to reserve rooms then! Its funny, the hotel contacted me in January to see if we were doing it again! We left a very good impression of our group there and they were eager to host us again.

Yes, there will be an itinerary again for this year for the week of the Dream Cruise. Included will be dyno time at Lids. Possibly an open house at Trilogy. We will be doing some track time at Milan for the FME track night. I will be working with them to set up something and see if we can do something special with that. Dinner at Capers again is a must! The IMOA is also having their National event at Woodward and we will probably join them for some festivities. Hopefully Jerry Barnes and Eaton will have another stellar afternoon of burnout fun this year like last year were Logan got famous in the Trilogy F150! Get ready for 4 or 5 days of Marauders, friends, good times and the worlds biggest car show. In my opinion this will be the highlight of the summer and a not to miss event.

Are you bringing some of the cigars from the really, really, really far SOUTH part of Florida? Oh heck, something from Tampa will be fine. Bring lots of them!:D
