It sounds like fun and an excellent cause, but I will be prepping my new house :?
I'm out...
Gotta finish a project I'm working on... I donated though... and work matched it :D

Sounds like fun, but I'll be in Sedona this weekend. :(
Nice! One of my favorite places... especially the run on the switchbacks to Prescott and Prescott Valley up towards Flagstaff. :mrgreen:Quote:

I've never been. We're flying out to see the house my parents are building and to celebrate my mother's 60th birthday. I hear it's beautiful. I'm just sad we won't be out there long enough for me to sneak off and go skiing for a day or two. :wink:Quote:

I think this thing is going to be huge. It's on boards all over the city. I expect 10-15 people from dallasimports.net to be there. I'm going to try to go, if I can drag my butt out of bed.
I'll be in Kansas this weekend. In a rented Exploder. For a family reunion. :banghead:
S.
I guess I should probably be in since the route starts so close to my house...
I'm working this Sunday...again. :roll: Y'all have fun and be careful!
Anybody wanna email me the map?

Forgot to add - Forecast calls for a sunny Sunday with a high of 50 and a morning low of 32.

Like you have a choice in the matter! :lol:Quote:

It wasn't so much the cold as my right shoulder being numb... I think I was holding the steering wheel a bit tight when I got hit on Friday.
In any case, there were about 150 cars too many...
I take it y'all blew if off?
Right you are, Ken!Quote:

I figured it would be a cluster fark...this was apparently cross posted on just about every car club board in the area.Quote:

No... 150 too many... I'm guessing there were 175.
At one point, after looking at all the cars, TC gave me this look... and I knew that he was thinking what I was thinking - this could be one helluva cluster fark.
But from what I've read so far on other boards, everything seems to have come off fine. A couple of mechanical issues but otherwise ok...
Some of the higher powered cars were really flying!!
By the way, I was talking with our Meteorologist and he mentioned that at 9am the temp 26 with a windchill of 19 degrees. Now, at 26 degrees, and a wind of 85 mph (the car speed) would be a windchill near -40. :shock:
I can tell you that my teeth were chattering. :?
I was sick and had to skip out. Stopping to throw up every few miles would have been just too much.
If you are going to continue doing this sort of thing, I'd suggest adding to, not shedding insulation from your body :roll:Quote:

huh? :scratch:Quote:

ohhhhhhhhhhhhh....I get it now. It's Monday. Need more coffee!
I would have killed for a hot cup of coffee yesterday half way down that route!Quote:

If I was dedicated I would have had my top down...
I think I've driven more miles already this year with the top up than I did all year last year.
I just wish I had brought a heavier coat... I probably would have stuck around longer.
You know it's too cold when even the Azenis won't stick!! Makes for spooky stuff!
