If you guys dont want to race you could do "Cruise to the woods" on October 4th and 5th. I will be there.

Im mainly thinking we can go for the car show, if anyone wants they can run through the 1/8 mile course they have.

I am not sure if I can make that or not. I would love another chance to get the car out with the For Sale sign in it, but just like the weekend of Cruise to the Woods it is a weekend I will have my daughter. And doing car shows with her is a little difficult (one more reason I am selling the car). They don't have much information on their website about that event: start time, registration time, cost, etc...

So I will put it on the calendar and see what happens.

I got a guy in M'town with no internet that has 2 MMs, I told him today and he wrote it down on the calander.

Ill try to talk to the other guy sometime soon.

Sounds like 5+ are going to try to make it. Not bad so far.

it might be easyer for you just to jump on I-80 and turn right off at the track's exit

Just a thought.

I was hoping maybe we could all meet up at the Old Chicago restaraunt just off of I-80 and Hwy 14, then maybe head to the track for the car show.

there is also the newton drive in theatre, depends on how late people want to be out that night.

Hey, we're driving out to Gettysburg on Friday. That'll be about 4 hours.(especially with a pit stop or two). But that's nothin' in a Marauder! :) Wish I could get to Iowa in 4 1/2 hours. That's goin' home for me.
