Well its about 6 to 8 mins away from me I'll try also:thumbsup:

Hell yea!!

Where are you? I'm in Chesterfield, soon to be on the water in a few weeks. I'm buying a house near Jefferson and Sugarbush.

 

[chizwizdiz]

I am just off Jefferson on Mallard ST north of cotton:thumbsup:

Nice. I drive down Jefferson everyday. The house I'm buying is on the Salt River, just down the road from you.

 

[chizwizdiz]

I drive way all the time with taking the daughter to see her boyfriend You going to be closer to 23 mile right?

Lol! Its not me, I promise!

Right after the stoplight at sugarbush is meldrum, turn right, turn right again on salt river drive and I'm right down there.

Road trip I'm in:thumbsup:

Id like to make the event! Ill know more when it gets closer! Any idea what class a diesel pick-up is in?

Thanks for the support!

Your trucks (basing this from your signature) would probably be in 4x4 mild or wild. If you pre-register online, and the guys at the booth think you should be in a different class, they will let you know. :thumbsup:

 

[chizwizdiz]

Bumpity Bump.

Mark your calenders and save your fuel.

Its this Saturday people!! Shine up your trucks and bring them out for a good cause. If and only if you get bored, your at gibralter, so go shopping for some car speakers, carpet remnants and those old 8 track tapes by the moody blues or whoever you old timers listen to!!

 

[chizwizdiz]

Maybe if we get a break in the weather between now and then.

I was planning on going up north this weekend but the weather will have an affect on that as well.

How positive are you that they will have some Moddy Blues 8 tracks? I might come just for that!

lol!! I guess I can't guarantee that moody blues will be there, I know there will be many other interesting choices (with or without a mullet and an 84 iroc-z).


On a side note; good news, things are on schedule and my truck should be ready! :thumbsup:

It is currently sitting in my buddies driveway with its transmission missing:confused013:. My buddy let me borrow his cadilac, god it is a nice ride.

Get rid of the truck and get a new CTS-V????





Lots of smileys in this post.................:thumbsup:

Thanks to all for their support!!

 

[chizwizdiz]

Huge thanks goes out to Pro99 (Chaz) for building my trans in record time. It is so much more enjoyable to drive now, this thing shifts like a rocket! I really missed second gear, lol!

Now I guess I have to step up and get a tuner to "maximize" all that effort. lol!

Fastest turn around ever, he even came over my buddies house after the install to make sure it was up to his standards. Can't beat that kind of customer service!!


This should be a great show guys, we have alot of vendors who are sponsoring lots of prizes and activities throughout the day.

 

[chizwizdiz]

Comments???

 

[chizwizdiz]

Pro99 and R-N-R will be there (Them Comments?)
OR
Thanks for the kind words and your welcome so how many miles did you get on her and how was the drive in to work? Oh hows the fluid (Them Comments?)

I got about 30 or so miles on it this morning, and I expect the same amount on my way home. The drive was just fine, all the gauges showed positive readings.

240 degrees @ 70mph is good, right???

 

[chizwizdiz]

No it's not but what the hell It's not mine

What was the temp you were seeing then tho?

It stayed right around 140 the whole way. arty018:

 

[chizwizdiz]

I wonder if the 88 chevy with rusted shocks, 16" pitted wheels will beat my truck again in the judging

Lol! I remember that truck, what a piece.

You guys should see these trophies, our sponsors really went over the top this year, truely custom.


<cough>I may or may not be a judge this year.<cough>


Call me if you guys need anything!

 

[chizwizdiz]

Thanks to all for coming!

Congrats Rob on winning the 4x4 Wild class.

 

[chizwizdiz]

Thanks Man....I had a good time.

Little incident on the way home. I was racing a late 0s mustang on the free way and blew up my CFMplus intake elbow. I guess it doenst like 60psi

Lol!


You need to build a broken parts cabinet. My buddy has one in his house and it is full of parts that couldn't hold up.

 

[chizwizdiz]

I stopped by for a little while but I don't know who else was there. I saw Robt's truck but no one was by it at the time. Chizwizdiz, I left a card on a white Mega hooked up to a contruction trailer. Was that yours?:confused013:

Yes, that was my truck. Thanks for the card!
