Propose an October date and see if proposed attendance will rise. I know you can add me for an October date (sans another situation I cant avoid
)

Re: MWBF'08; Which weekend works?...UPDATE!!!!!
I'll think about it, but I'm keeping this date (Saturday it looks like) as a "go" still because I have a lot to do to my car and have a tuner now, so this always makes for some beer car talk. Plus I think I'm gonna head to Byron that weekend if I get the kinks worked out of my PCM.
I need some yeses though so I can at least plan for random folk showing up.

I can make it. It'd have to be with the frakking Lumina (still having a go-round with the state about the plates on my Bonneville), but I can be there. I'd need times!

Just saw this thread. Who the heck forgot to include me!?
I'm definately in! I have to work Saturday afternoon / evening, however, I will be out there on Sunday to run at the track. (shooting for 13.8/9)
RareGMFan, can you post something in the W-body site? I'm sure the guys here won't mind if some GTPs came.

Umm.....if they click on the link, they can still see the thread. You can check it by copying the URL at the top to your clip board, log off BC, clear your cookies, open a new browser, then paste the URL from your clip board to the address bar. I think what you meant to say is they won't be able to post to the forum without signing up here.StrayCat wrote:As a heads-up, they won't be able to see this forum unless they sign up here.

Re: MWBF'08; Which weekend works?...UPDATE!!!!!
Any positive "yes"es yet?
I have a slight situation that could be really good or really bad based on...the situation....
Ok friends called wanting to camp out this weekend and the usual camping spot is flooded out, so they approached me.
I'm all for it and they are a friendly party bunch, but if it intrudes upon those of you stopping by let me know. Usually I would tell them no if this was the official BFest, but I figured because its a mini-meet with a very small number of people coming out it might not be intrusive.
Again, I leave this in your hands. It wouldn't change anything else for the weekend, just that some friends of mine would be with us.

Re: MWBF'08; Which weekend works?...UPDATE!!!!!
I don't see how that would be a problem. Unfortunately i already have plans this weekend so i will only be able to make it out on Saturday. That's ok though because i still have some work to do on my headers before i can install them. Maybe Ken will be beating me to 13's on a stock valvetrain.
