[jarchie]

We will be there if all goes well. We do have plans later that day.

[fastblackmerc]

I should be there. Will be on my way to Atlanta for business......... and to get my exhaust work done.

[frdwrnch]

Great guys! Look forward to seeing y'all there. Cheesehead, I should have the basic Cokes, Ice and water covered. The American Legion Post adjacent to my shop will be catering to those wanting a beverage of choice. My Snap On tool Guy used to be a stunt coordinator on the original Dukes of Hazzard and now he puts on "Dukes" show all over the country. He'll be there and may have a General Lee or Roscoe cop car. It should be a lot of fun!

[fastblackmerc]

Dropped my MM off at frdwrnch's shop yesterday. Will pick it up next Saturday, you can bet I'll be there bright and early to give it the first test drive with mods installed!

Rumor has it that the American Legion hall next door to the shop sells "adult beverages," so there's at least a 50% (heck, 90%! :lol: ) chance that I may sample one (heck, prolly more than one! :lol: ), be it green or otherwise, while on the premises. If E-Dubb has the day off, he may come along to spread a little of his special brand of sunshine (as in:bs: ).

[stevencory]

:( My sister called this morning to let me know my Grandpa Joe
passed away. I'm heading out tonight to travel to Chicago to
attend his funeral and to "be there" for my Aunts and Cousins.

My luck and meeting up with you guys is just not in the stars :help:

My sincere apologies, I won't be able to make it :bigcry:

:banana: Congratulations and good luck with the Grand Opening. :banana:

Peace,

[Butch]

3800-B Smith Farm Rd.

Hey Frdwrnch. I'm planning on being there. Just want to verify the address. Is this a Charlotte address? I'm going to put it into my NAV system, and just want to make sure of what city I should be inputing. It's kind of picky about that.

Probably be close to lunch time when I get there, so I can have time to get my car out of "storage" and clean it up some first, plus give the streets time to dry up some.

See everyone there!

[fastblackmerc]

Butch, actual address is:

3800-B Smith Farm Road
Matthews, NC 28104

See you there!

[Butch]

Thanks! I didn't think that was a Charolotte address, I was actually thinking it would be Monroe, but just needed to be sure.

[SC Cheesehead]

Hey Frdwrnch. I'm planning on being there.

See everyone there!


Hey Butch, haven't seen you for a while, will be good to get together again.

BTW, rumor has it that dok may even show up in his new ride.

Nope. Same ride, I guess it's been awhile since I've seen him...he was still running his SB-MM the last time we got together.

BTW, talked to frdwrnch today. Gears are in, CAI installed, chip has been flashed. UDP's haven't arrived yet, so will have to schedule another visit to get those put in.

Hope the weather is good tomorrow, can't wait to try out the car and see how she goes.

SCCH

[96DiamondVIII]

Here's another hoping for good weather!!! Sadly, I held off until today on giving my car a much-needed wash without looking at the weather reports...and then all the rain today preventing me from washing it anyway. So it will not be clean like it deserves to be. :( But! I'll be there just the same and expecting to have a blast!

[Marauderjack]

Thanks! I didn't think that was a Charolotte address, I was actually thinking it would be Monroe, but just needed to be sure.

From Monroe to Statesville to Gastonia to Rock Hill......It's ALL REALLY CHARLOTTE!!!!:mad2: :argue:
