11 year TGO Anniversary

I just realized....

The FIRST official TGO "large" gathering was March 21, 1998. Eleven years has just passed by.....


Full Photo Album
Can anybody identify any of the Members in the pics? I just wonder how many of us original members are still around here.....

Re: 11 year TGO Anniversary

It was Dirk from up in OK, to me in Austin & everything in between.

I know we hit the swap meet, then some pick-n-pull in the area, with LOTS stored indoors. Nice place.

Just wish I could put some names to the faces.

Not sure. I thought Dana was the one with the white/red heritage,...and is that Cody's formula ?

Re: 11 year TGO Anniversary

The name Dana sounds familiar.

I know Brad (one of the 3 founders of TGO) was one of the 2 Heritage Camaros on the right. Maybe Dana & Brad were the 2 Heritages?

I think that is Dirk in the white 91/92 GTA parked next to my purple w/white striped RS. The white 'bird is a TTA. He really kicked my gas when we split around a 18-wheeler, going over to the pick-n-pull.

Other than that....No idea really.

I went to the arlington swapmeet in '99 or '00. A few of us houston guys went up there to meet with the DFW guys.

Trying to remember who was there... Gregg (1LE), Cody (92 formula), Patrick (91 ragtop t/a), TC..and a lot of others....time flys.

Re: 11 year TGO Anniversary

I remember Brandon's car from our Houston meet in '02. Glad we still have some of the original members around I wasn't old enough to drive when that first meet occurred!
