It's racecar friendly, and they have great pizza. Then, if we wanted, we could cruise right down the street to O'Reilly Raceway to check out the show. Opinions??
I'll be at the event racing, so i'm not sure if i could make an outside meet. Everyone should just come to the event.


P.S. I just got home and saw a red FD parked around the corner from my place. It has Hamilton Co plates. Anyone know whose that is and if he/she is on the forum?
What wheels did it have? Might be Aron.

The 19th sounds the best to me too, regardless of where we meet at and what we do. Meeting at the event would be fine with me. Or meeting up somewhere else and cruising to the event as a rotary gang would be fun too.

That's kind of what I was thinking, but I'm game for whatever. I do want to get some kind of idea on a meeting place and start time because I know I can't be there all day. Zinx, what does the schedule for your class look like?

Its an all day type of thing, i don't know the schedule. The 18ths opened up for me so i'd be up for meeting that day, if it works better for everyone.

Let's get everyone's vote for either Saturday, 10/18 (venue TBD), or Sunday, 10/19 (in Speedway)...

I am probably going to go to the import face off regardless, looks like all day as Jon said, 10-5, and would prefer to meet up before and/or at that event on the 19th.

Some of us ought to head to that. They need some rotaries in the group. Looking at all those 60s-70s muscle cars can get old sometimes. I may head to both events actually. Thanks for the link!

If it happens on Sunday then it will be a four day weekend or me, other than that I really have absolutely no preference as to which day it is.

This sounds fun. Their site says they are doing a cruise-in/tailgate on Friday the 17th from 5-9. Would anyone be up for that, or are we all just thinking sometime that Saturday in G'Wood?

I'm up for the cookout if anyone else is. I think that the car show looks like an especially great time though. Would be a good chance to just hang out with other rotary guys and educate the masses.

I think several people can make either the evening cruise-in on the 17th (Fri) or the show on the afternoon of the 18th (Sat). Everyone, please respond with your preference as follows:

(1) Friday night cruise-in
(2) Saturday car show
(3) No preference/either one

I vote #3. Either of these events sound like a great time and I should be available for either of them.

Ok. I was waiting for someone to take a stance. I am voting (1) as well b/c it gives me motivation to do work and get the H out of the office on time on that Friday.

Either way I am getting out of work for whichever day it is, but I care not much for a bunch of classic cars that (more than likely) don't get driven but maybe one week out of the entire year because they are too precious to them.

If you want me to, I can make mention of the get together when we've finalized the plans.
