THAT is a great video Paul!
The look on peoples faces seeing this was absolutely priceless.
I was the lead car with DR behind me running his LED's.
Gail said we were getting looks from passerbys as if they were asking themselves; "Why won't that crazy SOB pull over?"
:lol:
The escort to the Hotel was the perfect ending to this event.
Damn that was fun!
Thanks again to all who attended..

Never mind I see it was answered in post just before I posted mine. So DR has some flashing lights is he a part time or reserve for a local dept?

Marv and Carol have done a couple KY Meets, and have enjoyed themselves immensely.
The truckers saw their Vette at the first KY Meet during a convoy, and made mention over channel 19 that the person in the Vette must be someone important!

Two Lincoln TC's were with us. The Celica most likely cut in.
One MM with steelies and 1 CV (unmarked LMPD) running blocks/escort.

Great video Paul. I am the 17th car in the convoy right at 1:34. Had to move to the outside lane so that the unmarked car could pass me on the inside -- then I slid back into line when he took off up the free lane. :D

Paul the Vidieo was awesome. But, being in the Marauder Caravan was even more fun then the video shows.
The Officers were even "brought up to speed" when Dennis Reinhart took them for a little Demo-Ride. Thier smiles were ear to ear when they returned to the hotel.

I modified all 30 FHP Marauders the lights are never turned on except with permision of the local Police, wich I did have.
I have a confession to make. I left my Marauder w/ Dennis the Friday before Katrina and Dennis insisted on taking his Marauder back.
For several reasons it was determined it was safer to leave Dennis' Marauder in my garage 12.5' above sea level then evacuate it.
The day they let us back in after Katrina I p/u Dennis' Marauder.
There are black hawks and chinooks flying over head. Humvees and M16s. There is enough w/s damage that it is disorienting.
I tell my B-I-L to follow me in the E150 that I will use the lites to get out of the neighborhood. It was the only time I turned them on.
The trip bringing back Dennis' Marauder was a story until itself. http://www.mercurymarauder.net/forums/showthread.php?t=24754&highlight=ticket
