I’ve been busy with work and this forum is so active I cannot keep up.

-------------------------------------------------

Cruise-in Friday @ Beavercreek K-Mart – Weather forecast is showing scattered thunderstorms so I will probably not go. :(

Trans Am Nationals this weekend @ Dayton Marriott Hotel in Dayton – http://www.78ta.com/nats/ I hope to go as a spectator. Remember that ASC is supposed to show their 2010 Camaro Trans Am conversion which I’m curious to see in person. http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=21729

Car show Saturday @ Wal-Mart in Xenia for those interested. – http://www.gcchd.org/Development/Events/CarShowFlyer09.pdf
I hope to go as a spectator only.

F-Body Summit – I still don’t think I’ll be going as I have made other commitments including the Beavercreek popcorn festival car show which is invitation only. I’ll be there with my restored ‘76 Camaro Type LT.

jamesmr (& wife), Pur3vil & Bee91 – Welcome. I hope you enjoy the forums and Camaro activities.

FenwickHockey65 – Wow, I didn’t know that you had ridden in Thor before. Have you had the opportunity to drive both the V6 and V8 Camaros? You’ve probably posted something driving a Camaro before; but, I cannot keep up with your many posts. I’m looking forward to more info on future GM vehicles like the Cadillac ATS, Cadillac Converj, Chevy Orlando and similar smaller cars/crossovers so help keep me informed. I’m going to need to replace my daily driver Intrepid w/230,000+ miles one of these days.

diaboli – Good to see you again at the cruise-in a couple weeks ago now. One of these days I’m going to duplicate your turn signal bulbs replacement on my own Camaro. I’m still generally holding off on all mods until after the SEMA show.

CamaroSS_300_HEMO_C – Congrats on your IOM and thanks for the pics (they are not overdone).

gtjacket – Thanks for the pics. I’ve been thinking of adding similar cowl hood stripes but in gray. Of course your stripe color works well with that IOM interior.

Jorux – Congrats on your new RJT. I’m happy to hear Ann took care of you.

peel out – Congrats on your IOM and thanks for the pic. Love your Camaro smile. I sometimes regret not getting your color combo.

Gins_R3S – Wow, your RJT looks gorgeous! I love the painted ground effects too. Congrats! Thanks for the pics. I’d like to hear your GMPP exhaust some time and see your engine cover. I saw a VR painted engine cover and it looked great. I wouldn’t mind hearing how your tint job turned out and who did it.

jrhaus76 – I hated to read and see the pic of the freeway object damage. I hope your Camaro gets fixed up to your satisfaction. Where is the auction with the 1974 Camaro w/4600 miles? I would like to see that old Camaro. I wouldn’t be looking to bid/buy. Do you show your 89 IROC? Did you consider an IBM 2010 Camaro to sort-of match?

prostock69 – Congrats! It is probably less than a week away for you now. So, will there be another IOM like your avatar pic for me to drool over?

LadyInBlue, EarliestMemory, bartking, cowboy1948, SilverIceMan – Hi! Hope everyone is enjoying their cars.

I saw an RJT heading West on hwy 35 between Xenia and Jamestown and I waved to them. I’ve passed another black Camaro going East on hwy 35 twice this week.

I’ve been passing buy Lang Chevrolet about everyday to/from work. I saw an IOM that was there one day and gone the next. They have had a black SS and yellow V6 for a number of days now.

-------------------------------------------------


Friday 10pm conference call and/or forum meeting – Count me in. Thanks bartking!

VOA Park – Is this going to happen sometime?

Hocking Hills driving tour – Ok, who is going to take charge and organize this and make it happen?

Rattler driving tour – A friend had told be about some SE Ohio roads called “The Rattler”. http://macysgarage.com/rattler.htm . I did some searching on this a few weeks ago and stumbled across a long video of a motorcycle driving some twisty Southern Ohio roads which this route may have been. It looked very interesting and sort-of scary especially when the motorcycle crashed in the end after hitting some gravel on the road.

Bourbon Trail driving tour – I noted this story about driving through central Kentucky bourbon country http://traveler.nationalgeographic.com/drives/kentucky-bourbon.html . It looks interesting to me so I’ve started researching further and trying to put together a driving route and stops. This could potentially be a new club activity. Has anybody driven these roads and could you comment on the experience?



Take care,
Doug
