Looking forward to this and I hope the weather will cooperate (crosses fingers).

I am lucky number 13. I assume this means my car isn't going to get running by the fest.

Hey everyone...I don't really post much on here, but I do read through the forum quite a bit if I'm ever having problems fixing something on my car. I just got my registration pack today in the mail, and I'm car #34. I attached a picture of my car...See you at the show!

Got my packet today. Car #27 WOOT!

Has anybody stayed overnight at the Holiday Inn Express, Best Western or Super 8 in Monee in years past? Thinking about going down on Friday afternoon and was wondering what the word was on these motels or others in the area for that matter.

Any central/south eastern WI enthusiasts caravaning down?

Holy Cow...WECoyote! Whats up man? Long time no see. Hows the car? Good to see you'll be at the fest. I'm gona try really hard to get both of my cars out there. Hopefully I can get the 350 swapped into the Formula this week and get it in good enough condition to make the drive. The IROC should be there too, hopefully I can get the hot restart problem figured out before then.

Hey Kyle! Yeah...long time no see LOL!

This year I'm going to get things done to the IROC that I have been wanting/yearning to get done but because of time, money, personal issues, etc. have been put off. I would say in the past 4 years the car has had less than 2000 miles put on it. I figure either do something with it or sell it and move on. I have to say I have amassed a lot of performance parts and upgrades. Every day seems like Christmas as I find goodies I had purchased and tucked away in the past for future use. The IROC still has the 305 in it. A new engine setup for a Vortech S-trim is nearing completion. Probably be a couple of weeks before it is up and running. Debating about dumping the cash on a Fast or Accel gen 7 DFI system or going the DIY way. I would like to go DIY but I fear the time needed for the learning curve will discourage me. Also I want to have the motor and hopefully the suspension, rear and brakes upgraded before Day At The Drags event in mid-June at Earlsville, IA. Got a former co-worker I would like to put some smack down on

So you going to be at ThirdGen fest regardless if your car is done/ready? What about the IROC?

Talk to/see you later.

Also, I doubt I will get out of work early on Friday. Best I can hope/shoot for is 4:00pm. I work in Deerfield so I will most likely leave from there should I decided to go down on Friday evening.
