Less that 24 hours away!!!

Thumper can you post up what everyone needs to bring?

I know I am bringing my screwdriver with me along with my socket set and basic screwdriver.

Can someone or Thunder bring that tool that makes it easy to pry off the rivets/push in screws.

Thumper did everyone msg you with their numbers?

Does anyone know what grease is needed for the AFE shifter?

I am bringing a bottle of tranny fluid to lube it up.

Oh, and the two walkies I have. Unless there is something im suposed to be bringing that i cant remember. Also, eveyone might want to bring some sort of gas mask or respirator with them incase you are stuck behind me. lol.

no, i wont be able to today unfortunately. I think im just gonna go for a good, long drive today to make sure everything will be fine for tomorrow. Im not so worried about it though. Like i said, i checked the plugs, everything seems good that way. the power is back for the most part....I have one more thing to check(without being able to go to the dealer) as far as this noise is concerned, but either way, ill be good to go tomorrow morning.

Pros I updated the list, I think that is everything ppl are bringing. Don't forget your 3 AAA batteries.

I only have had 2 ppl msg me with name and number for this cruise.

Don't really think we need confirmation...who shows up shows up, and we keep moving along as planned.

I tried messasing Pros, but I never got a response.
I'm pretty sure they're still on the other side of the border.

Give us pics and a summery when you guys get back ASAP!

Greta day, had nine 8's cruising across the border. Lot's of installs, wheels, short shifters, exhausts, LED's and coils. Finished up at the Casino where Thumper won $220 bucks! Lots of pics will be posted soon.

Great job organizing Thumper, thx!

I had an awesome time today guys. we had our share of turn arounds and whatnot, but it was really awesome anyways. the radios really went a long way in making that sort of thing not frustrating at all (accept when the leaders were out of range). I hope i didnt stink up the cruise too bad. the fumes were killing me by the end of the night. I actually flipped off a friend of mine when i got back into guelph. lol. I blamed it on the fumes, "Im pretty tweaked from the fumes man, didnt recognize you"

Marc, if you need a hand tinkering with that shifter let me know. I'd like to see what it takes to fix it up. How was the drive home in 5th gear?

and like scott said, great job organizing Marc. I was gonna suggest we pick up your dinner or something for doing all this, but then we didnt do dinner, and you also won a bunch of money so..... lol.
