F Body Gathering 13, Atlanta GA May 28-31
I'm gonna need a little sticky action here Mods, Admins!
G13 is a big fat GO, and we're gonna kick it off early enough this year to allow everyone (including the humble staffers) to plan for it. Start setting aside funds and vacation time to make this event, which will fall on May 21-24 this year. I'll update this post as I get more details from Andy and Chad, but for now, just know that it's happenin'! Be there or be not, uh, round. Or something.

Incredible event, it's a must do for any Camaro/Firebird fan. I had originally posted the dates incorrectly, I have edited the initial post. I'll throw up some pics of years past soon. 
----------
Stay tuned, we're working on revamping the site for G13.

Count me in. I'll bring a friend. My Camaro should be done with paint, and this would make a great debut. What kind of cost is involved with attending this event?

Re: F Body Gathering 13, Atlanta GA May 28-31
Ya'll all need to come out, regardless of your car's state of completion- This is the best damn F-Body event of the year, anywhere. Allocate roughly $50 for the entry fee (this is being ironed out as we speak) and Hotel room rates between $80 and $100 a night. You single folks can room together and save cash, no rules set by the hotel on that. We fully understand that the economy and fuel costs are an issue, but let me assure you- I've been car showing for well over 20 years, and this is the only show that is a MUST DO for us each year. I'll get somepics up in a second to whet your appetites.

Re: F Body Gathering 13, Atlanta GA May 28-31
I realize the pics are a little 4th gen heavy, so we're gonna need a lot more 3rd gens this year to even the score!

Will be there! Been looking forward to it since May of last year when I was temporarily separated from my car.
Hopefully will have some others to make the drive with.

Re: F Body Gathering 13, Atlanta GA May 28-31
Thanks, found it. In his post, Andy says that the final details for the hotel are in the works, and that there will be plenty of room for everyone. Cool! We will be driving down on Thursday afternoon, by way of I-575 to I-75 South at Kennasaw. I don't want you all to think that I am some kind of snoob or goof, for trailering my F-body. I broke my back years ago, and had four back surgeries, six vertebrates fused. I can drive the F-body for short distances, but can't drive the car for long distances without lots of pain. Still love those 3rd gens though! So, we'll ride in the Super-Duty, and haul the bird!
