I probably won't go to Kensington but if you guys do dinner or something in Midland afterwards I'll meet up with you there. I told my friend with the bonneville she should come hang out too..

[irkwerks2]

I'll be there...with bells on...chance to meet Crash and BillBoost....

And is going to junkyards necessary? Can't we just raid Crash's driveway?

Bill's going? I never saw this thread on Bpro... are you sure?

[petraman]

I don't think Boosty ever committed, but here's the link to the post on BPro:

btw, I'm probably not going to be able to go the whole week. I just got a summer job at Cedar Point, so yeah... I might not even be able to get the weekend off, but we'll have to see...

[irkwerks2]

I saw his name as interested on the first page and was just being hopeful...

I didn't mean to imply he "was" going to be there... sorry.

Well, as it stands right now, I don't think that anyone is 100% in other then Stephanie and I. If you want to confirm you are 100% in, that is fine, but I don't think anyone has yet.

As for Bill, he has expressed interest to me in a PM, but it never really went any further then that.

That list on the first post is only people that have shown interest so far either here or on BPRO

[Leftd90]

I'll try to keep an eye on this as we get closer. As of right now, I'll pencil it in for sure!!!

[00superchargedSe]

i will be there.. race and canoe trip sound like a blast. I am going to work on getting some bonnies from the west michigan area. And i am just curious if..... anybody would be willing to help me or (do) or show how to add a Short Stack Intercooler w/pulley change for a weekened project for the Michigan meet ????

[irkwerks2]

Hey everyone ...Just keep this in mind when planning your trip here.

This is right where the meet starts...

At least you'll all get to see the Michigan State Tree

[Darrel]

well that kinda sucks...


oh well I guess... let the games begin!!!

[crash93ssei]

My vacation is approved for the entire week.
I also will be ordering a whole bunch of detailing supplies today, so we will be fully stocked up on good stuff for you guys to see and learn about and try if you like!

For those that haven't see yet, the first post is updated with some information on the park and which pavilion we will be using.

Seems like a canoe trip will be a good idea. Still not sure on a track day yet. That will depend on what time and day they have open.

Not sure on any major modding. I don't really have any experience with that stuff, but as always, you are more then welcome to do any work to your car that you can. I will help out as much as possible also.


SO...

so far, who is gonna be there, and for how long?
The more people we get for the whole week, the better it will be!!!

[petraman]

I'm going to say that I'm 100% for at least two days of the meet, but I'll have to get situated in my job to see if I can take the week off.

[Darrel]

it is going to hinge 100% on how the deal with the house purchase goes. We are hopefully going to close april 10th but not move until June sometime. We should be settled enough to come up for a bit but there is no way to know for sure. one thing i DO know is that I own one truck and Sara owns one car that are in bad need of some good detailing work

[Archon]

About all that I can say at this point is that I'd really like to make the meet at Kensington. Anything other than that is a ?

[SingsCountry1967]

I'm at 50% right now due to starting a new job. If I can get the time off, it would likely be a long weekend type of deal - thurs through sunday.

That actually reminds me, I also already have Wednesday and Thursday off ( 8th and 9th ) So that means that I actually have the 8th - 19th off. Anyone would be more then welcome to come out early if they like

[crash93ssei]

Anyone have any other ideas on activities they might be interested in?

[MadMike]

i wont be able to come anymore,
since ill be in BCT till september
so ya, im afraid my name will have to be struck from the list once again.

[gweg_b]

I haven't stopped by this thread in awhile.

My chances of going have gone up, I'd say around 70%. But it will only be for the weekend because of school. More than likely, I could start heading out Friday morning, as school is on quarters, so I only go Mon-Thurs, and that leaves Friday open. How long I stay on Sunday is going to be determined if my Cisco class is on Monday or Wednesday (not sure yet, as summer schedule hasn't been posted yet).

The drive to the park isn't too bad, around 5 hours from my place. I'm probably going to have a friend come with me (hate doing long trips alone). Oh yeah, how is sleeping over handled? Is there anything I would need to bring?

I'm still having internal conflicts on which car I should bring, lol!
