I have to deviate a tad because the closest onramp to the interstate merges into the fast lane 🙃 I'd like to smack the person that designed that CF 🤣 We can realistically fit four Fieros… if we first crush them like beer cans. And yeah, that sounds like some Monday morning or Friday afternoon planning regarding your on-ramp situation 😂 2

Some members put a bug in my ear that I should come to the Eastern meet at Carlisle while attending last years at the Syracuse Nat's. Somehow, I'm gonna pull it off and as I'm sure many of you can relate, I could use some more time. I'm arriving Thursday afternoon, solo and assume I come directly to the hotel? Would I unload my car and hotel stuff and then drop truck and trailer (I have Carlisle Trailer parking pass). I'm sure it wont be an issue but I might need a hand after I arrive. Soooo, looking forward to this. Appreciate the input. Seth there will be plenty of help there! Depending on the time you arrive, Thursday night is pizza night. Just walk into the hotel ask for Rob, you will check in with him. At that time let him know what kind of help you need and Rob will get someone. If i am there (Willie) i will be more than happy to help with whatever you need to do. Just let us know as we are all willing to help, a Great Club!!!! 6
willie Posted June 18, 2024 Posted June 18, 2024 Everyone please take your time and be careful, if you run into trouble call Rob or Joe they will know who to get in touch with to get you the help you need! As Dennis and others have stated ck your straps once in a while and also your hubs for unnecessary heat, by putting your hand on the hub and see if there is any noticeable heat differences! Please have a safe trip everyone!!!! 7

If you see me hitchhiking at least acknowledge with a honk. Wave and a honk. In the shop already? Building points toward the coveted Hard Luck Award? rob 2

Neighbors are on board with shuffling their cars around once I pick up the trailer Wednesday morning. Car will be loaded Wednesday afternoon and then we’ll hit the road early Thursday. Slowly putting things in a pile to load up over the next 2 days. See you folks soon… safe travels to all, please. You will do anything to get a blue oval to Carlisle rob 2
Rob Peters Posted June 18, 2024 Author Posted June 18, 2024 We plan to hit the road at 5:30 tomorrow morning to try to beat the heat. Everyone please be safe!! Call me if you need anything. rob 5 1
S.Maug Posted June 18, 2024 Posted June 18, 2024 I wouldn't crush Pontiacs Willie, Oldsmobile's crush better and look better crushed, especially station wagons, 🤣 1
Rob Peters Posted June 18, 2024 Author Posted June 18, 2024 Timing is everything in this world. This "COUNTDOWN" has now come to an end. It is time for me to drag these tired bones to the shower, wake the grandkids up and hit the yellow brick road to Carlisle before the heat gets unbearable. The "And A Wake-up " is finally here for us!!!! I am looking forward to seeing everyone. Safe travels to you all. Watch out for the bears, when Patsy and went across the turnpike to Carlisle last Friday we saw a State Trooper on an average of every 10 miles. Also be careful in the construction areas because Pennsylvania now has unmaned stationary construction zone radar and camera speed traps. They don't pull you over but they mail you your ticket. ARRIVE ALIVE AND HAVE FUN!!!! See ya soon rob 11 1 1

GatorDog72 Posted June 19, 2024 Posted June 19, 2024 I'm having about the worst luck right now. My car starting running like garbage last night after a final tune up.. I'm working hard to get it sorted, but right now can't even get it to start. Might have to crash the party in the Honda this year 😑 3

I like your style!! Here's mine! The good news is my Monte is running awesome. Bad news is my tow vehicle won't go, and this morning the clutch on my civic starting making a horrendous noise. I wanted to be at this meet more than anything, but it looks like I'll be missing another one.... 😔 I'm devastated that I cant make it after scrambling so hard to make this work. I hope you all have an awesome time. Be safe and take loads of pics!!! 1 1
DragCat Posted June 24, 2024 Posted June 24, 2024 Just wanted to give a shout out to everyone involved at the meet 🤘What a weekend ! From the officers and the people behind the scenes , the members in full view of getting stuff done, and every member that showed up THANK YOU ! It's been said before, but so true, its not just about the cars, its the people. 6
