Does this GTG move to different areas? I wouldnt mind a drive to the great state of Texas, but this time around I have work related obligations and an over seas business trip that are killing my month of november. Will anyone be getting video and high res pictures to document the tech sessions? I would love to learn more about repairing the wood on my center console. I noticed the dash repair on the list. Cool Stuff. You all have fun.

Sounds like an excellent time !
...just have to figure out if I can fit in the almost eleven hour drive each way.
I'm always wanting to learn, even if I don't necessarily do a job myself...

I want to go! any close camp grounds or parking lots to "camp" in? I am itching to get my 5er out a couple more times this year before the cold sets in! I am all for the 126 speedo and odo fix. Mine is broken.
How about talk about the oil leaks? I have been chasing down leaks on squirt since I got her!! I just ordered the oil cooler hoses since I am leaking at the cooler and the oil filter! And maybe some talk about the doorlock system? My engine shuts off ok and all the locks work except for the pass front door.

http://www.tpwd.state.tx.us/spdest/findadest/parks/lake_bob_sandlin/#sch Anyone been there? If my girl and I take the 5er out there (looks like its maybe 15 miles from the meeting?) Anyone is welcome to tent camp at our spot. Or maybe we can get a few spots if there are a bunch of people that want to camp out?

There just doesn't to seem to be near enough buzz for this event.
I hope more folks are coming than have chimed in so far!!!!I think not having a sticky has hurt. The announcement is fine, but it always looks the same. It doesn't show when there have been more posts. Even has been quite from our hosts. I'm already in preparation mode. The Flexx Gun is ready to roll......

Camping Opportunities
Quote:
Another small, but gorgeous park, about the same distance as Bob Sandlin is Daingerfield. Cool cabins, but they're probably rented by now -- they are often rented half a year in advance. I think there are campsites, though...http://www.tpwd.state.tx.us/spdest/findadest/parks/daingerfield/ Hope to see you there. Sunny

Sorry I've been quiet...
Business gets better, and I have less time. I'm told the sticky problem has something to do with the new website -- that's all the answer I know of.
Anyway, I hope we have lot of folks, though I think I will go look for our old threads and see that people there get a copy, just in case. Jimmy, have you got time to send some PMs to folks from past events to give them the link to this one? It may be too late, but better later than never. Roy has been here for weeks, and I've barely seen him! Of course, he's seen a BUNCH of my cars, and some of them have had the manners to commit whatever ridiculous and inconvenient breaking-down behavior they could come up with while he's here instead of waiting until he's back in Detroit, so while the breakdowns have been highly inconvenient for me, having the pro nearby to solve them has been fabulous!! What happened to that guy who wanted to host us in the spring, anyway?? I never heard anything about that, either. John & I are looking forward to seeing everyone -- it's been too long! If we are a small group, well, we'll just have dueling flex guns!! Sounds like it could make for some good photo ops..... Sunny
