Event Coverage Official Vintage Torque Fest Thread May 3-4, 2013

HA HA HA.... I just prefer too be a little more dry than wet and not sure how cheater slicks will do in the rain.

 

Cheater slicks do not work in the water past experience Im pretty sick to say but with cheater slicks and a piston slap happening the roadster will need help getting there do i say dare say TRAILER

 

Ive got slicks also! Now you know how they really got there name!

 

.

My tires are only half slick, so I'll only spin half way out.





We've got about a 6-7 hour trip up there so it CAN'T rain - right?



.

 

Be Safe !!

 

Man neat car! Makes mine look like junk! Gunna see how my 6carbs like the rain!

 

Why did I build a car without windshield wipers...side windows..fenders...and run velocity stacks with no hood. Still going to try to fight mother nature and get it up there. Either way I'll be there...just hopefully with my truck.

I know the feelin!

 

For the same reason I did, 'cause they look cool!

 

What else is there ? no other way

 

That's another reason I need to build another kustom, and keep my rod. For sucky ass midwest weather!!!

 

I can't believe this predicted forecast...... I hope it misses the show!!!!

 

Hey, their isn't any shame on using a trailer this weekend. Get your cars and trucks there safe because it's only May. I would rather see your vehicle than not seeing it but hearing you got in an accident with it.

 

Okay, sorry to report that I am not going to make the show again this year, so with that said, I have a room at the Holiday Inn Express available if someone needs a room. I think all the hotels are booked, so I'm holding this for a bit before I call in and canceling the room. It has one king bed in it. Call me at 317-946-1535, Craig

 

I just got my coupe in December and haven't even had it out to a show. Only driven it a few times around here and worked all week to finish some things up. Really wanted to bring it but would hate to smack it up at its first showing.

 

IDON'T care about the weather I'm going!!! Leaving Friday morning!!! A little rain x and I'm off to IOWA. Hope to see all you guys there with your cars! Have a safe trip!!

 

Me too! Cars ready!

 

Have fun everyone......Sure wish I could be there, but other things to do. Hope the weather holds for you all. Wiil have to wait until KC Greasearama....

 

See ya there!! Excited to your galaxie!!

 

I'm praying for a weather miracle! But I'll still be there in the flesh working the gate Friday at noon-and then it's party time! Beasty will understand if she has to sit this one out!

 

...this'll be my last post til after the T-fest...all you guys have a safe trip, can't wait to see the mob arrive...this will be awesome!

 

Sounds like you might need snow tires!

Blue

 

Haha!!

 

My car has been in the snow before! Calling for upper 40s, there won't be any snow.
Wife & I will be there late Friday morning ready to have some fun. Since I'm going to miss the Friday breakfast meet & greet, I will catch the 2nd one at 11 Sarturday, if I remember. You all drive safe, see you there. Gene

 

I like the forecast from Weather Underground best. Fri 52 and 80% Sat 66 and 50%. That aint so bad.

I dont give a shit! I'm driving mine, 4 hours of fun getting there. The wife and I should be there early Fri afternoon.

 

Finishing some interior stuff and headed out tomorrow. See you there!

 

I like it!!

 

I knew I was right for not liking Hip-Hop!!! How about NO WAYNE!

 

I just made it into the house. I spent the entire day washing, waxing, and polishing the car. Still not finished...interior and windows tomorrow....perhaps some rainX.

Hoping for a fun and dry weekend; wishing everyone safe travels.
