Event Coverage BillitProof Who's going.

So where does everyone hang out on Friday afternoon/evening? Cruising? Where?

 

unfortunately we cant close (only allow certain cars) on the main street for the cruise. Its a state hwy, so to shut if down would take years and cost thousands of lives. As for guys that are in the cruise and will cause trouble, I'm in cahoots with the police dept. They are going to be enforcing all the traffic laws very stringently. Granted if they encounter toooo many trouble makers eventually it will ruin the event, but for right now they are hip to it and the Police Chief and I talk about who got cited for what when its all over and its known if its Billetproof'ers or not that are causing trouble.

 

looks like my ride should make it... finishing up loose ends but drove it about 60 miles today... see you all Sat.

 

No trouble outa me man I would love to see the event last as long as it possibly can.

 

It's up to all of us that go to this great event to keep things inline. Let the few that get out of line know you don't care for them screwing around. They will get the picture! KEEP IT COOL UGOTPK

 

We are leaving Kelso at 6AM. We are going to stop for breakfast with some friends in Chehalis then it will off to a fun filled day rain or shine. Looks like rain.

 

Last year as we were leaving and headed north to Roy to visit family after the show we saw groups of muscle cars headed south for the cruise. We p***ed a number of OT cruisers with families too as the cruise night seems to have become a lot bigger than than Billetproof it's self in some respects.

There always seems to be a problem with the usually (not in the show) hot street cars showing up at things like this with the owners bent on making ***es of themselves to show those guys with the old cars what a real hot car does. It doesn't just happen in Centrailia/Chehalis it happens in Yakima, Brownwood ,Texas and every place else I have been to a rod trot or car show.

 

For some unknown reason the off topic cars are attracted to any event that is NOT for them. It's like vultures circling road kill. They wait for things to get going and then join in and make sure they do something to get everyone's attention.
I've seen this happen at numerous events. They just can't seem to find a place that's open to their vehicles, even when there are numerous other open shows the same day.
I sure hope the weather people are wrong with their forecast!

 

Hey ChopTop, do we get a discount since its pouring down rain????

 

Well , I may miss it this year, Woodburn Drags, going to see a certain car make some p***es .. Heck the 35 doesn't have working wipers(nothing rain-x won't fix) I will know tonight if the drags are a no go !

 

Wipers? Yeah, the '35 has a (as in singular) wiper. It doesn't really remove the rain from the windshield, as much as arrange the raindrops into a more convenient semi-circular arrangement. I'm still going to be there. Are people still meeting at the Gee Creek rest area at 7?

 

OK ! so the drags are a wash out so far, not making the drive to Wood burn.... Have the rain-x and towels for the 35 ! Can I follow anyone along with thats coming from the South Sound ????

 

BTTT, evening guys !

 

Just put a fresh coat of rain x on the gl*** and put the wifes umbrella in the car. Ready to go. I havn't drove the car a lot in rain do to water leaks. I went through it this winter finding the leaks and fixing them. I think I got them so tomorrow will be the test.

 

rob....a couple of us will be rolling down 16 about 7am.............

 

sent you a PM

 

ha !!! thats good ! they don't work at all !

 

Rob, found a small item from Puyallup Raceway that might add a nice touch to the dash or firewall of your '35.

 

Not making it after all. Heading to the doc in the morning and then Meeting with our real estate agent to finalize some paperwork on our new house. Its our first house. Can't meet until mid-morning... throws off the whole day. I look forward to all of your pictures. See you at Greenwood and Puyallup.

 

Nothing to drive but I'll be there. Going to have to stop at K-Mart and get some rain gear for my daughter though....

 

loaded up and ready to go.

just have to drop a bike off on the way

 

I just got in from a few laps around town. All I gotta say is the Take out T sitting out in the rain on the strip!!!! Bad ***. See ya there in the morning rain or shine!

 

Rain has dropped to ****tered at 40% Looks much better than yesterday. Let's GO

 

We might need to make this a boat show rahter than a car show. LOL We are heading out in a few minutes.

 

Heading out in a few. Kinda bummed i couldnt get the whole day off so my triumph show bike will be staying home
At least now these rockabilly pinup girls have a real reason to carry those ridiculous umbrellas.

 

Ended up having to work at the last minute, but i know a few members are going.

bummed i'm gonna miss it.

 

Not gonna make it either. No wipers is not a big deal, but rain pours in around my crank open windshield seal, so not fun driving with a lap full of rain! Have fun!

 

do my distributor gear stripped out in on the side of I-5. so me and Dynaflash didnt make it after EVERYTHING that could go wrong did.

So I said "**** it i dont have to drive now"

 

That ****s! Wet and broken!

 

yea, it really ****ed. 3 hours of sleep in 48 hours to make it to the show and this happened.

Its all good fun though
