Rolling Bones Bonneville trip details

I talked to a couple of the Omaha guys last night and, if it's possible, we'd like to try to catch you on your way through Omaha and drive with you to Lincoln. It'd be great if you could give one of us a call when you leave Des Moines, or somewhere in between. If that's at all possible, let me know, and I'll PM you my phone #. Thank you!

Also, if you are planning on touring the Museum, do you already have it set up? If not, I can get you some contact info to set up a tour.

About what time are you planning to leave Erie, PA. I drive semi truck around cleveland and mansfield, would love to keep my eye open for you all, and grab a few pic's as you pass me. LOL I leave my warehouse at 1pm and go south sometimes or anywhere in northeast ohio. I drive a daycab with a big white refer trailer and a black horse on the side of it.

 

Yeah send me a PM with your number......I'll call you and let you know how we're doing. I'll have a better idea about the museum too. Didn't know you had to make an appointment to visit. Thanks.

 

We'll be on the road out of Erie by 7-7:30 on Monday the 11th.

 

Oh I may not be on the road that early, But I may drive over to the overpass by rt 94 and I-271 to see ya drive by, you should be there by 10 10:30 may be 11. If you see some bald guy standing on top of the bridge, It's just me.

 

I'll be looking for ya.

 

Sent you a PM with my # and Speedway Museum info. Thanks - looking forward to next week!

When you guys stop at Indy be sure to keep an eye on your hot rods. That is'nt the best part of Indy where that motel six is located. I'll get some friends together and swing by for the party. Watch that 'ol guy in the '32 roadster...he is kinda strange!!!

 

Have a great trip guys. Wish I could be at the salt to see you again and share some Fred Steaks........ But I'll be seeing Ken in Oct. for our cruise west to SEMA.

All the Best, Dave

 

Howdy all, There are 20 of us travelling over 7000 miles each way from New Zealand to supports the 15 kiwi teams racing. We arrive on Tuesday afternoon from Las Vegas and will on the salt as soon as we've checked in and filled the ice chests. Hope to catch up with some of you on the salt. Cheers Graeme

 

High Speed Division is ready, nearly loaded and will be on our way in a few hours....See you guys there!!!!!! The banzai passes have proved positive.

Chris

 

Anybody hear how the first day went?

 

Good luck and lots of runs from the behind the scenes crew of RB high speed division!!

 

Chris good luck and drive safe and make sure you say hi to Jake and Louanne and have a great time. Make sure you take pictures of Nationally Known Billy O in the High Speed Div. car.

 

two days down. Anybody know how they are doing?

 

Been getting updates from my Dad.
7 Rods plus the 2 racecars in boxes. They had rain on and off all the way to their first stop in PA, no problems though.
Someone (a HAMBer?) set up a BBQ for them at a park near the hotel last night and a few PA HAMBers came out to greet them. Dad said it was great. They picked up another Rod in PA and were headed for Indy at 8am. I'll try to keep the updates coming.
Brett

 

Update:
2pm Exit 79 I70 gas stop.
Cshabang is bailing yesterdays rainwater out of The High Speed Division racecar.

 

Thanks for the updates, Brett!
I look forward to meeting everyone as they come through Omaha/Lincoln, NE on Wednesday... and catch up with them on the salt on Sunday.

Any chance of getting some photos of this here caravan or the cars included in the trip?

Very interesting for sure!

I'm working on it. From what I gather they have not had any internet so-far, the trad hotels don't have wi-fi.
Their eta for Indy is 5pm.

 

where did he get the money to buy A bucket? also tell him Jared said take A hot shower

 

I stopped by their hotel last night to check out the cars. I forgot my good camera, so I snapped a couple pics with my phone. Sorry, there was a terrible glare, but I guess they're better than nothing. The blue "92 B" roadster was beautiful. I hadn't seen that one before.

By the way, andysdeuce, you were right about that part of town. When we arrived, there were two police cars, a paddy wagon, and a tow truck hauling a guy and his car away!

Again, sorry for the crappy pics.

 

Sorry I missed you guys Monday nite. I got tied up at Tom Culbertsons shop working on the Galaxie. I'm trying to get it ready for Mokan. Thanks for the pics and update. Some great looking hot rods for sure. You fellas have a safe trip...I know you are gonna love every minute of your adventure.

 

The words evil, wicked, mean and nasty come to mind when I see those rides.

 

Dam those new cars are nice

 

yeah....that 92B car is sweet....love the front bumper/nerf detail.

 

Hell yes, those cars are nice. Now I know what to look for when I get there Sunday night.

Can't wait!!
