This should be good, count me in.

 

I still expect presents....

 

I'll get you a present if you get me one! 13 days and counting!!!

 

Here are two sigs that folks can use:

 

What do you want?(I have no creativity when it comes to presents )

 

I want a radar detector or Racing Beat suspension... I'd like to go sky diving too...

 

UPDATE: The design of the t-shirts has been made, however I'm polling everyone to see which quote they prefer better. This will be on the back of a navy blue t-shirt in white lettering. Please post your opinion.

"Wanna see my Wankel?"

or

"Wanna see my rotors?"

Thanks in advance!

 

UPDATE: 33 people and 20 cars registered and still 3 months to go!!! Woo-hoo!!

 

i would possibly go. i showed up to the OK BBQ, but i didnt bring the RX because the intercooler piping was being put on. hopefully most of my stuff will be installed before i go. If any tulsa crew is going, let me know when you plan on leaving. I would definitely be interested in cruising with you guys down there. Go ahead and count me in as registered, but i will make it official here in a week or so...just gotta ask off in advance at work. lot of different things will be happening in the next couple of months, so it will be a little chaotic.

Ry.

 

I plan to attend, but I have not yet registered. I will have to wait and see how things go between now and then. Hopefully, nothing will pop up.
I have already made one road trip to D/FW in my FB this year, just 2 weeks prior to the OK BBQ. I think my car liked visiting it's former home area, but it seemed to really want to come back north, as it gained about 30 MPH in the last couple miles before crossing the red river. (cruise control was engaged) Has not acted up any other time.........................
Former owner musta been a little abusive, or something. Heck, they didn't even keep up the registation and insurance on the car, or their D/L. Which is why it ended up in the impound yard, where it "adopted" me the day we met.

 

I think ApneaBlue and 94touring are going to drive down from Tulsa.

 

94t and I are coming..........(in our my shirts )....Anyone who wants to caravan down with us you can drop me an e-mail at iwanttocaravan@apneablue.com

 

What are the initial plans for the caravan? Leaving the night before, or early on the day of.
If I do get to attend, I would certainly be interested in going as a group, within reason.
Almost afraid to even ask about the "shirts"..........................

 

I posted this email address in the 8 forum b/c there's a dude from OK who signed up. Just a heads up if he contacts you.

 

Additional information has been added to the BBQ thread on the 8 forum. Mainly activities concerning Friday night......

For those who are banned, can you even see the threads? I can post the information here as well if I need to.

 

I might come down, its hard to say that far in advance.

 

Well we hope you can make it!

 

Anyone that will be heading up I35, let me know. I want to start a caravan. A few of you I will get ahold of myself.

 

eep eep.
Im down and registered.
Sound funnn, and its in a time of nice weather, hopefully..=x

A variety of rooms have been set aside for our group: smoking, non-smoking, single beds, double beds, suites, etc. Be sure to mention what room you would prefer when making your reservations.

You will be required to give a credit card number to secure the room, but this will not be charged unless you are a no-show. You must also present this same credit card upon check-in.

Uh, you still forgot to put my birthday for September 25th Ok I'm gonna stop before i get my head chewed off.

 

Lol, we'll celebrate Saturday night, don't you worry!

 

BBQ Update

Those of you coming in from out-of-town: if you are wanting to share a hotel room to cut down on the cost, let me know and I will make an attempt to hook you up with someone else wanting to do the same. Rooms w/2 double beds have been set aside so in theory, we can fit 4 to a room, making the room less than $20/night.

DONATIONS ARE WELCOMED AND ACCEPTED!!
A paypal account is available for donations for the BBQ. Send your donations to dazygirl415@aol.com.

Thanks!!

 

Man, this is gonna be great! BUMP
