    Next weekend is the national hot rod reunion at Bowling Green Kentucky. Who is going from the HAMB? I'll be there with Al Schramm's top fuel car. Stop by the pits and introduce yourself. I'll be the guy laying under the engine dropping the oil pan etc. Brad

    I was at the first one. Missed the second. I'll be there this year with 66KIXX, my '66 F-100 and my '69 Schwinn Sting-Ray. Feel free to sit on the tailgate if you need to. I live an hour away and will be driving in every day.

    I can't get off work Friday, so I'll probably leave Sat. morning when I get off at 8:00 and hopefully get there around noon. I'll go home Saturday night and sleep all day Sunday:rolleyes: Look forward to meeting some HAMB'ers.
     
  23. I'll be there, riding shotgun with a HAMB celebrity. :D

    Anybody got a spare room for Friday night? They are harder to find than tread on HRLC's tires after a burnout in Joplin.....

    It's right next door to the Wendys too, which is real easy to spot.

    Lets also have a couple inside the park during the day like last year. How does both Friday and Saturday at noonish sound? Under the trees at the back of the park along the river. This is the area where alot of HAMB folks parked last year and we're hoping to get the same spots again this year.

    Also, some HAMB folks went go-carting on Saturday nite last year. I missed it cuz I got stuck in traffic after the cracklefest. How does that sound for a meet and greet on Saturday nite?? Lets say 9pm at the go-cart tracks which are located on the sidestreet between the Harley dealership and the Denny's, right at I-65 (the east side of the freeway)
