A BIG thanks to Tray for having us out there.
And many thanks to everyone for supporting RCC!
The wife and I had a great time hanging with you all, and we look forward to returning next year!

that poor red FD...

looks like you guys had a great time!

:rofl: we all have our own styles for our cars...

yeah, it was a great trip. I had a great time as well. I will be doing it again next year! Same basic format as this year in how the event is actually conducted, but there might be a little more prep I do to make things run smooth. And I might finally get T-shirts for it!!! (Kevin... i may ask for your help on this...)

and new official site: www.BlueRidgeRotaryRun.com

Just let me know I'll hook you up with my shirt maker, he is here in Birmingham.

Finally put the new fuel pump in. Its a bit louder but does the trick. I can't wait to give it a good workout.

sweet... just let me know when you want to come back up to the area, we will go test the new fuel pump!

i will be there!count on it.

Would anyone be intrested in B3R meet in january? We can host it at my place in Saluda, NC that tray has heard about.

Oh you guys are killing me! January.... how about 1st or second w/e in Dec :suspect:

I am down for whatever man. If you drive it My place will be available.All things are weather pending. If there is any ice or snow they usually shut down the parkway all together.

:lol: The rig I'm driving down laughs at that kinda crap, I will be trailering an FD back though soooooo... yeah. I'm waiting on confirmation on a few parts for my truck before I make the commitment for the weekend. Going through mad amounts of prep now, roof rack, 5gal Jerry, helper springs, new PS pump, tune-up with injector rebuilding - what's really holding me up - new muffler, and the most important things, Sat radio, I-pod interface and fridge... Not a cooler, but I'm hoping to borrow my buddies Engle Freezer/Fridge - that would be money.

We'll see, I'll keep ya in the loop, & Rico & Tray.

parkway is already being closed... south of 215 and north of craggy garden picnic areas... and a stretch closed between 191 and 151... it's a bit annoying really!

Why are they closing roads? Weather already down there?

My opinion on why they close down is that 1) it saves the Feds/states $ in upkeep during the winter months. Also that will save the road from heavy deterioration from salts, chains, plow blades, etc..

2) I believe it also gives the repair crews time to shut down the road and repair sections that are washing out, rock fall prone and such. Get the road ready for the "real" season.

It sucks, but we have plenty of fun roads to rip in the mountains. Tray will know more than me, but there are lots.

Yeah, I'd want to hit the closed roads with my truck though :D
