ok i had done this like three years ago when i had my trans am's before..
im looking at setting up an f-body tour and fun day...it will be this spring though but needing to know what kind of interest is in this..

basically we can get together at a local spot and then cruize through a few different places around the area..and then end up at park and have a big cook-out and what not else..

we cruized from hutch to wayzata past fletchers then up to st.cloud and then back towards litchfield past grove creek raceway and then ended at hutch again by optimist park where we had some games of softball,baseball,basketball, volleyball, and a big cookout..

this year i would like to extend the cruize and then maybe see if i could get a sponsor to rent out grove creek raceway and maybe do some grudge match drags..

also just wondering where all the mn member are from?

im from Hutchinson and the Watertown area...

 

duluth mn here im up 4 it and probably a couple other third geners i know

 

I'm just west of the Twin Towns, but I'm the least sports minded person here I'd wager, but the drags sound cool...even to film those grudge matches. Where is that? I don't travel too far, to be honest, but my car's in sore shape and still not running right. Not ready to show off for a few years I'd think hehe. I'm still going to try to fix it though I have to wipe out all my built up debt over the last few years. Credit card, etc.
I hadn't been to the regional board, but it's nice to find local deals/shops/help/parts

im in Bemidji and id be up for it, although i might have to come a day early and leave a day late since its a 4 hour drive each way to the cities, my grandpa lives in wayzata so it should be no problem i could stay with him.

just make it on a sunny day oh and im not much of a sports guy either, id rather go screw around and get some track time in (never raced at a track before) but i definitely like to eat so a cook off or BBQ would be awesome

 

yeah i would be leaning more towards the track thing anyways..Gove Creek is out by litchfield...it is only a 1.8th mile track but it still a track..they do have runs like every weekend during the summer either drag or ovals..you can check them out at www.grovecreek.com ..so i might be hard to plan the track rental for like i weekend..but there are some weekends that there isnt anything going on..

 

Hello
Faribault MN here south of TC by 1 hour I would be up for it. I need to know a date soon as our vac is six months out

later

Pequot Here.

Not to sure about a cruise though. It depends if you cruise near me & what type of shape my Rs is in at the time.

Check with some of the guys at www.mnfbody.com

I'm sure they would participate & most of them are based in the Twin Cities.

 

I'm up for a spring cruise. I'm from Ironton.

 

I'm in St Paul once a month and would be up for any kind of a get together/cruise!

 

Blaine, MN here....20 minutes north of the cities, and Im down for it

 

Im in Lakeville and would be down for a cruise! It would have to be like late spring or summer for me to be interested though cause I may not be done with the car. I still have to pull and rebuild the 356 and install new heads and intake...hopefully shoot me up towards 350-375 rwhp range. And I have to paint the kameleon flames in my engine bay still. but cant do that till spring!


I would deffantlly like to hit the track even though its an 1/8, my car loves the 1/8 mile (Gotta love lotsa low end TQ)

 

I think the run is a great idea. I have always wanted to go out on a cruise with a bunch of cars but have never gotten the chance. I'm In!!

 

Welcome to thirdgen.org, 90irocgirl. :rockon:

 

ok talked to the track i was looking at and they said the only weekend day/night we could have the track available to us wouldbe like before the end of may...so im thinking may 14 or the 21 and it probally being the 21st with the weekend before being a bust time for minnesotans..

welcome 90irocgirl..nice to see some local people on the site

 

Maybe next year then as that is my aniversery--I don't think the betterhalf would like it to well if I left for a cruzz--keepus posted maybe she will like to go for a ride


later and

For sake of argument, would there be concern on all these gathered cars being in fine shape or come as you are? hehe

Mines' been out year-round and actually upon recent repairs it occurs to me it had been sitting still for nearly 12 months with an occasional startup though. It runs rough [nearer to idle and slow upshift from the auto] even now, not sure what all is at fault, though some people I know would say 'everything'

 

Count me in as a possible attendee...depending on the date, of course

I live near Rockford, which is about 35-40 miles west of Mpls...near Buffalo.

I have never been the the Litchfield 1/8 mile track, but would consider going...and the cruise idea seems pretty cool.

 

Bill Speed:

My vote is that if it is drivable, you should attend

Neither of my cars is on the road right now...the GTA needs paint/body work, while the Camaro looks great, but currently needs some engine work.

Something will be on the road by Spring though

 

Mine's currently drivable for about 45 minutes total but I let it sit running while grabbing a magazine and soda after driving for several miles, at that point my temp guage was nearing the redline! I have replaced the radiator and thermistat but have a leaking valve gasket so the coolant needs constant checking.... it's still a long work in progress project I guess

 

leaking valve gasket..huh? you mean intake or head..not your valve covers causing any problems..

 

I'm up for it but I have two ugly cars right now and I don't know if I can trust one of them. I'll be more positive this spring.

 

im in St. paul
i might be up for it

 

by the way, iv been trying to get a bunch of mid-west 3rdgens together for a video, so maybe we can work out a video with the cruz too! i know jasons game we still gotta cruz this summer dude!

 

im up for being in a video!

 

For Sure!!! Im always down for boiling goodyear rubber for a vid....

 

I'm Up for a nice run with some third gen count me in.

 

I am up in Pine River which is about 30 miles north of Brainerd. I would be up for whatever is going on provided I can get the time off of work.

Best regards,
Tanaman.

 

Im in circle pines bout 20 min north or the TC. I am ALWAYS up for a video shoot of anykind same with my buddys. One of them is has a 11 sec 88 lx 347 stroker...nto an f body but fun and fast.
