    Change of plans. Just booked a room in Robbinsville NC. Got a little better rate and closer to the action. See y'all there.


    Russ are you really going to be there? Now I will be shamed into washing my car til it's perfect.

    It was an honor to have
    my ASS kicked by you!
    Rest In Peace!

    Sorry I confused you. We were booked into the same hotel and then Louis changed to the other hotel so we changed to that hotel too.

    Hopeful to make it Saturday. Will be driving up that morning from Atlanta.
    Unfortunately, the Marauder is at Mo's Speed Shop.

    Guess that I could bring out the Cobra!

    We're in Robbinsville now. There's several Mustang's in the parking lot and all kinds of motorcycles. Looks like it's going to be a busy day on the Dragon tomorrow.

    It was an honor to have
    my ASS kicked by you!
    Rest In Peace!

    I checked in around 9:15 pm in Andrews,NC. There are several car clubs that are in attendance tomorrow and also there is an all Ford show in Maggie Valley, North Carolina on Saturday as well.

    I hope you can make it as well. There was a Cobra sighting at last year's trip & is more than welcome to ride along with us.

    Thanks for everyone that attended this past weekend (82dawgcrazy,Granddaddy Marq & spouse, 03mmmonroe & Gryphonzus & spouse.) The weather cooperated completely for this event with higher than usual temperatures for the season. I hope to do this again next year & that everyone had a safe trip home.
