HAHA you shoulda heard that tube radio slowly charge up with the spooky green glow of the dials and the ungrounded AM squeel..... then when i turned the key over to the right without having to push a botton, and the open headers rumbled to life.... then when the gas gauge worked.... the headlights are bright as day yessssssss ****Rumble Rumble Vroom**** pileup here we come.
As of right now we are planning on leaving very early on sat morn. about 5am we will go from Fort Wayne, Indiana up 30 to 65 then to 80....will anyone else be traveling this route or some portion of it on sat morn? We would like to hookup with someone to run with! Thanks, Debb

dude, Morris is in the middle of freaking NOWHERE. The race track is literally surrounded by cornfields on all sides. There will be no light pollution, and if you drive 5 minutes away you'll probably be in pitch black farmland. It's supposed to be clear Saturday night, too
See ya there Jeff, the roadsters not going to make it. Coming home from your open house it developed some back firing, I believe the vacuum advance screwed up. I'll keep my eyes open for ya.
That's not gonna work...She's goin to one of them fancy telescope buildings. I would go with her any othertime, but the pile up is a much better entertainment deal...I'm just pissed right now....
Hey, scratcher, you and Bleed can stop by my shack for a beer on the way down to Pileup this afternoon -- I'm real close to 94 in Deerfield and home all day. I'll send you digits and directions by PM
I'd hate to see those fancy pants in a bunch... **** it,I drove to LA solo in the truck I guess it is the Commander's turn I ran the store out of Lonestar Waiting on the UPS truck with my new Whitewalls Leaving as soon as there mounted.
Tyler ... you are freaking RULER.. see man.. that is what the ****ing pileup is all about!! screw it.. just hit the ****in road... everything will be gooood. U rock tyler.
