post #40 and after for what I did this year. You might go back to the beginning to see my total experience. I have my fingers crossed for this winter.

I see you have a 71 mustang. My dream care is a 69 Camaro SS. When I sold my 94 Camaro I was torm between a restored 69 SS or the 8. My wife convinced me that the 8 was the smarter choice long term. One day I'll have it.

True, I think the two car payments are more than enough for now

Yeah, I bought it new in '71. So, she has been my baby for a long time. Obviously, a totally different beast from the RX-8. Heavy American muscle with that deep throaty rumble. Unfortunately, she has been rather neglected since I got the '8. But here's a pic from a local car show this summer.

The Chicago meet sounds like fun on Saturday, and I'm pretty much right on your way there. Unfortunately my warden (otherwise known as my wife) has other plans for me. It sounds like the weather isn't going to be great either. Maybe next time.

Hey all! I heard my name being thrown around and thought I would pop in. If you are interested in joining our local site (www.chicagorotary.com) please do! It's free and all for us midwesterners to talk local nonsense (and maybe some good intelligent stuff too once in a while).

All you have to do is sign up, get the confirmation email (so we know you are not a spammer or bot), and you should be good to go. From the confirmation to being able to post, there may be a little bit of a delay, as Railgun (the MAN) has to assign you the proper category for posting (us rotorheads get all the privileges!!).

If you have any problems after following those steps, let me know. If you'd like to be included on our email list, let me know. I send out meet reminders and add you to the EVOLV-Chicago group.

Our meet schedule is always posted in the first post of this thread

thatisall. back to your regularly scheduled programming
