Event Coverage ROLL CALL! Bonneville Speed Week 2013

Discussion in 'The Hokey Ass Message Board' started by So-Cal Speed Sacramento, Jul 2, 2013.

  1. Looks like a bunch of great guys and hot rods will be there this year. Making the trip out with the circus (rolling bones bunch) and staying at the Nugget. Driving my old deuce roadster. See you all in the pits or at the Salt Flat Speed Shop party.

    Getting there Friday. camping at the bend. hope we don't need pontoons for the tent.:cool:
     
  4. I think this is my ninth or tenth time to Speed Week. The first year we went we just decided to go on a whim. Made a call got a nice room no problem at all. Every time since its been a battle.

    I read you guys, Yeah got room at the Nugget ... I can never get a forking room no matter how hard we try. Four guys dialing constantly. Maybe you guys book for a week and that makes the difference? We can only book for Sat, Sun and sometimes Monday. Depends on vacation allotment. Seems like we end up booking a place at Wells and then are able to find a room in Wendover the next day with no problems.

    Anyway getting a room always drives me crazy lol.

  7. I'll be there with the #974 Studebaker gang. I'm looking forward to seeing a lot of old pals and meeting some new ones. I'll be driving my black lowered Trailblazer while on a 3 week camping vacation.

    Lynda and I are joining the Rolling Bones Crew in Erie. We are driving our 32 roadster. Hope the old flat motor has another 5000 miles in her. Counting the days. First trip to Speed Week. Staying at the Red Garter.

    Nope. No fun. I've been going for the past six years and haven't had any fun yet. I'm going again this year but I'm not expecting to have fun. Maybe when I go next year I'll have fun.

  20. Good thing you mentioned that. I would have driven right by to the KOA a day early. Lets camp on the high side or even at the new museum site Wed night.

    Looks like we are leaving Tuesday after I get off. Wally says Flagstaff that night. Yesterday primed the body, started riveting blisters on. No time for paint. As we work am getting schooled on chase truck procedure and Wally's way.
    See you there!!!

    i'll be heading up but probably no race car this year, it's got a long list of little things that need to be done and I haven't had any time to mess with it. if I can get a few other guys to caravan up I might drive the 34 phaeton, if not i'll be in the boring work truck.

    I got a phone call this morning to say my aluminum wheel on the sidecar has been OKed for Bonneville. Its taken what seems like forever but as Doc Hudson of "Cars" said "Hot snot. We're back in business!"
     
  30. Right on!
