Lets hope the weather holds. I'll be there taking pictures... Haven't been to this show in two years. 

[Beer]

From the looks of things an Indian summer is not gonna happen...

Two hour tow for me, weather permitting, I will be there in a Black Chevy Avalanche with the Charger in tow (LOL probably the only Mopar there as a rolling chasis on a trailer...), or I will come down with the Vette (show ya my Nitrous System and the Panels I make) and the laptop full of pics.  I will shoot ya my cell Ron when the time gets closer.

Dart where are you located? I am in Bath-Brunswick Maine area.

I will bring the Shipyard Pumpkin Ale and Sam Adams.

Stranger things have happened.
I'm in Blackstone, Mass. Its about a 1 1/2 hr drive for me, and I'll have to take the day off from work.

Long term weather guessers have the 28th mid high 30's for the low, and mid 50's for a high...few more days see how it shapes up.

Where is the smiley with the big winter coat?   

I am planning on NED Wednesday nite 28th... for the last passes w/ the vette. Ron do you come down a couple of days early or just the day of the event? LOL bring a smallblock cam and lifters and you can show me how to degree a cam

Jim, i don't think we can degree in a cam in the snow  Geez....i hope and pray for some nice weather !!!  Dwayne might be coming down as well to see the action so you can meet him and talk head porting and custom cams. It's all dependant on the weather of course....

I work my long stretch (6 days > 86 hrs) and will be finishing up thursday morning at 0700 hrs. Plans are to leave friday AM, pick up Dwayne in the late afternoon and get to NH friday evening.

That's great Jen ! Looking forward to seeing you again. 

You bringing the Dart ?


Ron

[dart3404]

     Sold the dart in August so I could start getting the 68 Coronet going... With any luck that might make the show next year. 

[Steve P.]

Hi Jenn, It's been way too long.. Glad to see you're still hanging in there.. Can't believe you sold your baby, but it IS for a good cause.... 

Stick with us this time ok...   

[dart3404]

Hi Steve
It was time to sell her. The Coronet and the Charger have been sitting doing nothing for years. This will give me a kick in the butt to get one of them moving.

[NHCharger]

Wow. Ron coming down to NEDW. This is late in the year for a show. Do you have your studded race slicks ready
Long term forecast shows partly cldy, mid 50's for Saturday. They won't actually know next Saturdays weather until next Sunday.

Unfortunately with my current work load I have to work part of Saturday. I'm only 20 minutes from the track so I'll go in early so i can make it there by 10.

[nh_mopar_fan]

I'll be boarding a ship in Miami.

[FLG]

I might be there as well. No charger though 

[Beer]

I am a go for Wednesday, trying for my first 11 sec slip

This Wednes/Fri is the last call of the 09 season for non Mopars @ NED.

Good luck with that 11 sec pass Jim ! Is this with your Vette ?



Ron

[NHCharger]

Ron,

Yes, typical new england forecast. Channel 9 out of Manchester, NH is calling for sun to start and then some quick moving showers, but they still don't know if the showers start at 10 AM or PM.
If your going to be here for Friday night let me know, love to hook up for Supper, I still owe you a brew or two for all your advice the past few years
