Wow , ear sweat? Glad to hear ( with sweaty ears! ) you can come out for the day.. I think the figure 8 cars are gonna go later in the day. No need to fire up the car and head out at 4 or 5 this year. Hang out and watch some lunatics run the figure 8 cars into the evening.

Been working on Jen's Shoebox. Will be driveable (sans exhaust) by weekes end. I do have a wagon.....300hp+. Burnout contest? Can a non-trad car do that? One dude killed his 80's Cutlass a few yrs back. 3TONFUN may make a burnout appearance.....and WIN! Haha!

Great News.... any photographic evidence of this machine?

flatheadpete · 03-08-2012, 07:12 AM

Crappy pic. Once it's running well I'll post a video.

Autojunkie · 03-10-2012, 05:15 PM

Just go mine back together. I still need to redo the wheels and but better tires, but it's good to go for now.

Can't wait!

I'll drag (drive

) the '32 down for this one. After missing last year the old girl needs some expressway miles to clear out the cobwebs. This will be the 10th anniversary since it's last wash job so maybe it will rain while I'm out with it before the show. Want it looking her best for this one.

Frank please bring it down , but leave the rain in Bay City along with the Rollers!!! I don't think those guys fit in with the show! See ya there

flatheadpete · 03-12-2012, 08:23 AM

Took the Shoebox out for a shake-down run last night. We'll be there.

Probesport · 03-12-2012, 08:32 AM

This was the target date to get my A done, but I was just informed that my son has a scouting thing the same day and he takes priority over the car. So it looks like I'm missing out this year.

Always a good show though!

I_be_moose · 03-12-2012, 09:59 AM

I'll be dragging the old bluish '36 out and be slingin paint next to Ray!

Will you throw some lines on my door if I haul it there??

Gator · 03-13-2012, 08:20 AM

Just put a new fuel tank and sender in the Caddy.... couple more minor things and I'll start with the longer road tests.

Weaverville Studios · 03-13-2012, 08:27 AM

I've been to every show in Davisburg and it is always, always, always a highlight on the calender...please if at all possible, never leave that location...just the drive to and from the show is great with all those nice winding roads around the fairgrounds. Great people, great event, great location. See you there!
