I LOVE drivel. ;D
I'm glad you're going to try and make it, Bob! Exciting!
I've got an update on my status as well; I secured a job (I start on June 4th!) and couldn't be happier about it. The job is great and is exactly what I wanted to be doing and more. They're giving me my entire honeymoon off as well, which is cool. Since it is a salary 8-5 job I will be working that Friday night before the meet, though. I'll try to take off early but I'll have quite a drive up there. You all had better make it worth it, though! ;D ;D ;D

I'm so happy I got my motor swapped before I ever came to a meet. I would have had a Gas can full of motor oil and topping her off every stop haha. People would wonder why I was pooring gas under the hood, hahaha. You all may have thought I was burning offroad diesel, in a Gasoline engine . Eventually it got that bad, lol. 90W will only go so far ;D One day I shall take a pick of the timing gear for the cams, it had a 1/4" of wear off the gear shaft

groomlakestead: Im like 50% sure i will go. Like i said, i will be returning from a vacation the week prior so money is definately going to be a factor. At the very least if you guys wanted to eat or meet up in West Des Moines, Ia on your way there id be up for that also.

This is the lastest version that I found back on page 10. We also need to start adding to this list the items we'll be bringing to the picnic. Everyone will need to bring your own beverages.(BYOB) BUMP and btw, I worry about what Jack will be bringing, will it be road-kill he scores on his way from Kentucky?

Bad news here too, guys. I won't be able to make the meet. My excuses: - Most of you know but I just started my Job, and I don't want to start taking off early just yet. I wouldn't be able to leave Kansas City until 5pm and thought driving through the night would be alright but I just don't have it in me. I don't want to take a chance of wrecking the Olds.
- I have a bunch of stuff to do to the car before a meet and won't have time to do any of it. School took up all of my free time and now work... I need a few weekends here and there to work on it. She should be ready for Springfield but not Illinois.
- I'll be moving into my new house that weekend. If I don't take the opportunity to move at that time I'll have to wait a couple more weeks and I can't do that, so I've gotta do it!
Sorry, ladies and gents! I really was looking forward to it and I'm sad that I can't go. I'm on salary and after I've been here a year it won't be a problem to take off a few hours early, I just can't do it yet! Next year! xjsman89: Will be unable to attend this year! rca99aurora:count me as 100% confirmed! rcsrgreat:will be there if meet is in the same place aura1: If he's not there then I'll drive the five minutes to his house and drag him kicking and screaming kaykirk: I will be there (unless something better comes ups) xjsman89 wrote: Better be there, bringing my blueberry surprise and yes, I'll bring Blueberry Surprise! and I can bring a smokey joe. oldsnut: the fearless meet leader oldwino: Me and the misses, check.

Go to the meet and swap wheels with someone and go for a ride. If the problem exists still then youve eliminated a problem.

I have some extra wheels for the Second Gen (Final 500 Chromes) Also have an extra Razzi Kit for 95-99! **Kay, your Princess Betty will not dissapoint ( I feel she will be ready to run to Aurora in time). **Collins, I am dissapointed, You will have the rest of Your LIFE to WORK, remember that is a 4 letter word, Uhg! (we all feel your pain though!) **Andy, we just put 5500 miles on my a** in last 3 weeks (motorcycles) with Ben on a tour of the West! Whew, WOW, enjoyed it immensely! **Everyone else, See you there! Enjoy and have safe drives (and Drivells)

I'm sorry that I can't make it too, Tony! It just isn't in the cards this year. My hours are pretty flexible but I don't want to take a day off just yet. I really wish that I could. I know I say it all the time, but I'll be there next year! I've got a laundry list of stuff to do that I'm going to tackle, and some small mechanical stuff that Randy the Aurora Wizard is going to help me take care of. ;D
