    If only

    I think if I was really that stupid, I would be pretty happy in life because I would be so ignorant.

    Hey Jamie,

    I'll be in your neck of the woods for FFW. I'm staying at a motel there in Suwanee 4/14 thru 4/17.
    I'll be staying at:
    Ramada Limited Suwanee
    3103 HIGHWAY 317
    Suwanee, GA 30174
    Maybe I'll see you guys around. Are you and Tyler going to FFW?

    Ray, if thats the motel I'm thinkin' it is, you'll be litterally 2 minutes IF that away from me. That motel is RIGHT down the street from my neighborhood if its the motel right off I-85. I'll be driveing by there in a few minutes, I'll see if that is the motel I think it is.

    If we get this Mav up and going by then, we might go to FFW.

    Will you have the blue car with you? I would love to see that car in person.

    Jamie, I hope you guys can make it with the Mav. If not, you still need to be there for Saturday for our mini-meet. I'd like to see as many members there as possible plus it should be a great event anyway with all the cars and drag racing going on. Most of the Georgia guys will be there. See ya soon.

    I have no problem with humor or jokes but that was a waste of bandwidth.

    I just went down to a place thats almost in Cumming to talk to one of my friends dads about a 351W engine he has, and I'm tellin' ya, that motel looks extreamly firmiliar. I should have drove right past it according to the map on that site, but I didn't see it. Infact, I didn't see ANY motels on that side of I-85. My dad's Mustang don't get to good of gas mileage so I didn't do any exploreing. It may be off on a side road or something.

    If we don't get this Mav and get it running, we won't have any car to drive to FFW at all. It ain't gonna be purty, but if it gets us there it gets us there. (y)

    Sam, this thread is serving us some useful purpose. :)
