    Doug- How many Mavericks have said they are coming?

    Frank- Details on meeting up?

    Anyone else meeting/eating?

    I guess I'll wash it this year! Then it comes home for drag strip duty again that day, then it goes to Div 4 Bracket Finals in October!

    I can't wait...Duane

    6 it is. I will be leaving the IHop at 6:30 just to be sure I make it to the meet close to 9 as possible. I am thinking the second stop is at the Wal Mart and that also will take a few minutes, unless they are meeting there at a different time. Leaving IHop at 6:30 should put me/us there at WM at around 8ish. Someone chime in if my times are off.

    It looks like it will cost at least $10 to show your car. The event is free tho. You just have to show up. As far as learning, we are always willing to answer any questions here or there.
    Where are you located anyway?

    If it don't over heat and runs and shifts good just drive it. Make sure all fluids are full and fresh. Check that the radiator cap is holding pressure. Hopefuly your mechanic looked at all the vitals like that and your good to go.
