Second Aprilfest in NC

Recommended Posts

So is this happening again? 2008 was great, but I couldn't keep up with you guys...

 

...so I went out and traded the SGT for a GT500 vert. All I need now is an excuse to load up the wifey and head east.

 

I'm in if there's another good-sized group going.

Let's get it on... :happy feet:

If Aprilfest is the weekend of the 10th - 12th, we can't make it. My niece is getting married that weekend and we'll have family in town. Besides, that's Easter weekend. Too bad, we had a blast last year, especially the cruise back from Howards Pub to the ferry.... :shift:

Conversation on the way back to the ferry.....

 

Kim: How fast are we going?

 

Carl: ahhhh, I don't know, why?

 

Kim: Does that say 120!

 

Carl: Maybe, but I think you read it wrong....

 

Carl: Don't worry about it, just sit back and enjoy the view.....

 

Kim: I can't, its going by too fast...

 

:spiteful:

Given what you can get GT500s for these days, it very well may have been cheaper than shipping my SGT to and from SAI (or Tasca, or wherever) to make it a GT/SC. Yours will still handle the curves better, however...

 

So where did you see the car listed? I haven't looked for it yet.

Okay peeps - speak up.

 

All in favor of moving the event to the next weekene, say "aye!"

 

I need to make hotel and kennel reservations (anyone like to share a room?) :lurk:

 

Ruf, please don't count on us this year, April isn't a good month this year. We have family coming down the last three weekends of April. I'll just need to wait for next year.

Let me know when you have a free weekend. I'd love to come down and visit before you head north. I'll clear my calendar! :hysterical:

 

The parts will be here on Monday.

Stacey and I can't do Easter weekend. We kind of have a standing tradition down in Washington NC with the extended family from Eastern NC (Washington NC is like Cape Cod for hillbillies...can I get a witness RUFDRAFT?). If the date gets moved back into May (we're also headed to Las Vegas to visit Shelby Automobiles, etc. the last week of April), or if others want to get together for Mayfest 2009, let me know!

This event is probably not happening due to lack of interest!

 

So if you and Stacey are going to be here in Washington that weekend - let me know. I'd love to meet you guys.

 

I'm on Lawson Road in Smallwood!
