Re: 2012 Thirdgen Roundup
yeah, the numbers are going up, it's getting exciting. Hopefully more people from houston will take advantage of it being so close to them
I'm getting 4 new tires on my car so I can drive down on the autobahn known as I-45. That road can get pretty fast, and I'm getting a vibration at about 75 with my old tires and they are shoeing some cracking, so I'm getting a whole new set just for the security of it

Right better safe than sorry. I'm trying to work out a tune and speedo repair then it will be time for new tires all around. Hopefully I'll have time to finish out the stereo and ground effects as well

Flyers are working. I've put out three, and one has said he's going.
Add Ethan + 1 cruising an orange RS w/ SS hood from Austin.
He was at last years Round Up as well.
Let's push them flyers guys.
Any closer to announcing sponsors and possible door prizes?

Re: 2012 Thirdgen Roundup
Hello,
I am trying to get new grey carpet in my 1992 z28 before the round up & possibly new black carpet in my 1991 z28 vert! I ordered some of those carpet samples from a new potential sponsor for the round up & they have not responded to me about being a sponsor for this year at all! So with all that info i think i may have to order it from a sponsor from last year instead.......
i maybe running out of time........

Re: 2012 Thirdgen Roundup
HUGE announcement!
In addition to Rock Auto contributing a gift certificate, I am excited to announce that Hawks Third gen is onboard with THREE gift certificates to be awarded as prizes for participants, along with Free t-shirts.
Thank you so much to BJ Hawkins for his support of all things Third Gen. Where would we be without him?
Still working on a couple more sponsors...

Re: 2012 Thirdgen Roundup
Last year he sent one $100 gift certificate for hawks, and rock auto sent a $50 certificate
Hawks is sending 3 certificates this year, but I won't know how much they are for until they hit my mailbox
Hope you can make it this year!

Re: 2012 Thirdgen Roundup
my friend is the one who won the hawks gift certificate last one and still hasnt used it lol, he's saving up. i was thinkin bout askin the ATGO guys if they would want to haul a trailor there and back and "if" some ones car (i hope not) decides to stop workin that they could pay the guy with the trailor rather than spending alot of money on a tow truck.

Re: 2012 Thirdgen Roundup
I think that's a great plan if somebody has a trailer. The last two on the caravan from dallas, we had one car on a trailer that could have been used in the event of a breakdown

Re: 2012 Thirdgen Roundup
If you've got a truck and trailer already, it makes total sense to put your car on the back of it, especially if your car gets horrible mpg or doesn't have AC

Fuel Injector connection has just agreed to donate a free set of Injectors as a raffle prize. Those came in very handy to the person that one them last year. (Flu_by_u)
