OK folks, the time is getting shorter by the day, get them rides ready.

Mine is getting there. It's up on jack stands getting the under side cleaned up.

All mine could use a good cleaning. Haven't really decided yet on what to take. I know Susan wants to take her Mini. Still up in the air on which one to clean.

Decisions... LOL

Doing the $500 tune up on the Impala. Water pump, cap, rotor, plugs and wires. And that is just the cost of the parts. Good thing I have an "in" with the mechanic. LOL

trying to have the 2+2 roadworthy for the trip, gotta do the front steel brake lines, I have them here, waiting for the time to do the install and bleed. Then see what the engine miss is about. Wish me luck.

Good Luck Leo. May it just be a bad plug wire.

Yeah, I haven't done the complete tune up yet, plug wires are the old ones still. Plugs, cap and rotor are new along with the PCV valve. no biggie.

Only s few weeks to go. Looking forward to it!

Hey, does anyone remember James screen name. The guy from the Greensboro/Winston area that comes out with us from time to time... has a nice white 84. I thought I had him saved in my contacts, but unfortunately I don't. Just wanted to send him a PM or e-mail to see if he can make it out. Really nice guy!

Sorry, No.

Jeff, I think it is 84MonteSSNC.

Thanks Gwen! James is a great guy, just kinda shy... like I used to be. Once you get to know him, he's really nice. Just did a search from the name you gave me AND ADDED him to my contacts. Shot him a quick invite, so hopefully he can make it out with us.

Well, I may have to skip this one this year, Pearl is gonna have knee surgery again, she has an infection in her right knee, the Dr is gonna remove the prothesetic knee and put an antibiotic block in her and after six weeks, remove that and reinstall another prostetic knee. We thought that was all in the past and man, does it suck.

Sorry Leo. Please send all our best to Pearl for a speedy recovery. We'll miss ya buddy!

Hey Jeff thanks for the reminder. I plan on coming to the show. I think the last time I came out to an event was back in 04 or 05. Now that I'm out of college and have a job I plan on trying to make it to as many events as possible. The 84SS isn't as nice as it was in 04 but I'm slowly working on it. I hope to install a new exhaust and repaint this year but that's just the top of the list. Look forward to seeing everyone again and meeting new folks.

Good deal James! No worries on the car, we all have been or need to be working on them. Not here to judge for the condition, just getting together with friends and having fun.

OK boys and girls, this event is only two weeks away, still holding hope that I can make it. too soon to tell on that right now.

As it stands right now, looks like we will make it.

36° 4'29.47"N 79° 4'48.33"W

The above coordinates are the Occoneechee Speedway. You can view what is left of the track from google earth or any other map.

One week to go! Can you believe it's been 7 years since we started up the SMCC?

Not gonna be able to make it, with Pearls surgery there is much to do at home. Y'all have on good time and don't sweat too much.

To paraphrase redlineSS, Dave, git dem motors runnin and git out onda hiway, Occoneechee is comin. 6 mo daze

Forecast for Saturday is looking nice and 85. Beautiful!

That's right, rub it in why don't ya.
