I'm actually thinking of skipping the Woodward Cruise and going . . . Tough when I'm 40 minutes to Woodward and 4 hours to the Moparfest . . . But thinking about it.   Would be my first time . . . And been wanting to go . . .
Tomorrow is promised to NOBODY . . . .

I'm out this year unfortunately :'( The family trip is planned over that weekend, we are going to tempt fate with the sharks on the East coast instead :o I would defiantly feel safer in the middle of a field with the "gang"  Have fun!

This hobby is more than just our cars, it's the people you get to meet along the way!!!

ahh, we'll miss you Scott. Tell the family the vacation this year is at New Hamburg ... what fun in the sun!!!   :hah:

Yeah, we'll be there.  Heading up to the Bendle's Friday afternoon, be there bright and early Saturday morning.
Should we try to meet up and do the ravine thing again?

Wednesday I got an email from Moparfest asking if I would be interested in having my car in a special exhibit in the Arena this year. Apparently they have an old Canadian drag racing team (John Petrie Racing) that was sponsored by Chrysler back in 1970 that also held Super Car clinics across Canada at Dodge/Plymouth dealerships.....Sox & Martin held them across the US.

So apparently they will be doing this in the Arena and my car would be part of the exhibit and they would push/roll it onto the stage and talk about performance tweaks etc (not clear on the details yet - they will be contacting me)....then roll it off and roll another car on. The "clincs" happen at a set time of the day so rest of time the car would be on display in arena (like first time my car was there when it debuted in 2010).

So the car would be in the arena all weekend until show ends on Sunday. I guess I'll wander around all weekend since I won't have a home on the showfield.

We have 18 rooms booked at the Best Western Kitchener where we were last August so it should be a blast as always. We have some of the ravine reserved this year after some discussion with Patt over the winter and spring. We all belong to the OVMCG Which is a group of Mopar lovers from all over Ontario on Facebook. I believe they are giving us 20 spots but know there is guys like RDC & ODZking that aren't on Fb but will be there early :) I am having small issues with my car of course so cross your fingers for me I can get these things tied up before next Friday! Cheers guys see you there  :2thumbs:

Great pictures Bob! Sorry we didn't get to visit more but the heat & people asking questions about my car made the day go by way to fast. Sunday the heat finally got to us so we booked it early. Hope you & Martha enjoyed the show and hope to get to a show in your neck of the woods someday  :coolgleamA:
