Crit, do you think this will work?
Whats with all this caravan stuff? You guys will line up to drive 1 mile down the road where you will end up standing in line and getting separated back up again before the drive inside the gate. Unless the first guy waits 30 minutes after signing in for the last guy to sing in.

I see how Ray got all mixed up now. Stu is being flaky, one minute he's coming down
with his dad and bro Saturday morning and staying in a hotel and the next he's
bringing the big tent and caravanning in with the Xroads crew.

Stu make a decision

I'm going to get registered at 7 a.m. if possible. Then sit back, relax and watch all
yunz come in while I munch on some breakfast rolls and coffee.

I agree with Crit, all of us at the CB and coming into register is trouble. Sounds
like you'll be lucky to get there before 9 if you ask me.

I plan to register at 7. I'm happy to meet everyone for breakfast, but I'm driving right past the trailer on the way back in. As nice as it may be to see a line of 7s, I'm not willing to wait at registration for that priveledge.

This makes sense. Go an register first. Then, if you are interested in breakfast meet at Cracker Barrel.

And Billy is just being grouchy. I think all the rotary machines driving in together will be fun.

How about this. Ray, Brett (Will be staying over) and myself can meet up at the Race Trac on I-85 and we'll all meet up at Cracker Barrel AFTER we go and register, like Crit's idea. No doubt getting all registered and whatnot will get some of us all hungry and such. THEN we can caravan back to R.A...Everybody's happy! We just need a headcount of how many are going to show up at CB after they've registered so whoever gets there first can get a table with enough chairs.

Does that sound good?

Also, am I bringing my EZ up? Holly suggested it the last meet, but I have no stakes to hold it in the ground... It should help keep the shade and/or keep us dry if it decides to rain... Also, if someone is feeling creative they can make a quick, cheap banner or sign to attach to it labled OGTA Tent. I have one folding chair...might be able to get a small folding plastic table and a cooler if need be.

Not sure why we'd need this stuff, but I'm throwing it out there!

Ray, I'll be bringing your timing light so I can get it back to you. I appreciate the loan...even though when I try and mess with the whole shebang it doesn't really do a damn thing... It was worth the try and I'm no longer worried about it. How she runs is how she runs, I'm done. lol

I'll check to see what I'm working Sunday, but what's this whole business with a movie or whatever? I'll have to leave Saturday night, when's the latest I can get out?

[QUOTE=ray green;9357338]Here's where the CB is:

Ben sender is free if it's in the tank, still working and can be extracted (I think so but don't have time right now). You never know, it might be good.

well, ray. i'm sure it's still in there if you dont remember ever taking it out. but thanks a lot. i can come get it out myself sometime if i need to. just let me know what you wanna do. i definitely want it

Ben I went out and looked and it's gone, now I remember Stu got that one (Crit got the other). Anybody got a fuel sender Ben can use?

Here's what I've concluded about breakfast and registration on Saturday morning:

???????????????????????????????....??????????????? ???????????????????????????????....??
(mostly Stu's fault)

Greg, go easy on Billy, he's an administrator. Administrators need to live with these corn cobs stuck in their buttocks.

I'll make up a fresh batch of OGTA cards.

I'll be there Sat am, might stop by CB for a chat but I don't usually eat breakfast. And if I see more that 2 1st gens going down the road I'll joining the parade.

This got more complicated than needed. Here is what I am doing.

I am going to RA at 7:00 and registering. Then I am headed over to CB for breakfast. Hopefully, a few others will join me and we can make a grand parade to Zoom Fest. I think Billy wears a green costume and rides a sleigh pulled by a little dog at Christmas time. JK, Billy. See you Saturday.

Ray, you might want to reconsider on the breakfast. It is going to be a long day and it may involve some liquid refreshment.

Thanks Mom, I'll be there at 7.



Pretty car, pretty miserable '60's technology.



A 12A would help, but I'd only get one if it came with the girl

ray, it would be really cool if you thought about making the new OGTA cards with the location we meet at and maybe some sort of time. nobody i've given a card to has shown up yet and i think it's because they're too lazy to go to the URL and find the actual place and time of the meet. just a thought. oh and thanks for checking on the fuel level sender, if you hear of anyone else with one, let me know please. i need it pretty badly. thanks

Oh yeah, I forgot.

OK, I'll be modding the OGTA card Ben, according to your blueprint. When I get into the office tomorrow I'll spend some time on it. I'll submit the proofs here of course for approval.

Anybody got a fuel sending unit? Kevin?

I have an extra zoom fest ticket, if any of you procrastinators wanted to still go My fathers bilstein shocks didn't come with 1 piece, preventing on him getting them installed and running down to zoomfest.

$30 and I get to crown you "dad".
