    Alright,

    GT-86 is in the house here.

    First off, STOP forecasting the weather. You will make yourself sick ad nauseum trying to pick a forecast that works for you. Just remember, we live in New England. If you don't like the current weather, just wait a few minutes, it'll change!

    That aside, I hear the weather will be decent. The show will be decent if you make it there. If you are not there, then those who do go miss out seeing all your great iron that should be there!

    I would not get discouraged Jeff or any other Capri owner. The parking lot my friends is adjacent to the show field. Plenty of people walk up and down that area looking at rides that are not in the show. If you get there early enough, there are some choice spots in general parking that are near where they serve food and you can display your cars proudly. I say Bring the CAPRI's and REPRESENT! So what if you don't get judged and you save some $.

    Just my 2 cents....Oh and count me in by the way. I will there with my 8 month old baby boy. Gotta start em young you know!

    My worries now are 50% of this house have ended up with a 24hr bug
    that drains you from both ends violently. My wife got it at 2am...the bug that is.

    Keep your fingers crossed guys!!! I am still hanging on!

    Man, NO freakin' rain yet but the skies have been dark and gloomy all day. If it's still like this in the morning, I'll be leaving at 6:00. My cell phone number is 339-933-2675, you guys can call me if you're unsure about it.

    O.k. guys. Here's my schedule for tomorrow. I'm riding solo (my brother, cousin and two friends can't attend) until I meet up with Dimestore Pony at 6:40 a.m. at Exit 10 on Route 495. Then we'll meet up with you guys at Home Depot at 7:00 a.m (Exit 18 on Route 495). From there, we'll all cruise up to the Mass Pike and pull into the first rest area to meet up with Dave (Bad50) at about 7:25-7:30 a.m. He'll be in his nice '87. Then it'll be a nice ride down to Manchester.

    Of course, if it's raining, I won't be going. However, if it's overcast (like it's been here all day), then I will be going. If anyone has any questions, please call me on my cell phone @ 339-933-2675. Thanks!

    Oh it crossed my mind but naturally at the last minute. I may have to run out and get some. But the other problem with the rain is that the shoes on my car are ET Streets. They are new but I still won't risk driving with them in wet weather. They are all I have at the moment till I get another set of rear wheels with street tires

    Kate,

    There is room in the Cobra for both of you. If you want to go, meet me at my house at 5:50 a.m.

    It's still dry at my house and if it's like that in the morning, I'll be heading out!
