MMcGuirk Posted April 7, 2014 Report Share Posted April 7, 2014 Went by Shelby on Saturday to pick up a part. I didn't want to spoil it for myself so I stayed strictly in the gift shop area. Let me tell you, for those who haven't been there yet, this facility is massive! Can't wait to see the rest of it next week! Question for Jer or one of the higher ups, I will be unable to make the cruise Monday, as I had a friend pass away and services are that monday. I am however still going to be going through Palm Springs on Sunday and wanted to see if I could still pick up my registration info then, especially since I bought two tickets and one of them belongs to another TS Member who is going on the cruise. See me in Palm Springs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeffJ Posted April 11, 2014 Report Share Posted April 11, 2014 For those coming through Colorado. Weather is looking fine through Saturday night. Will hit some rain through the mountains. Avoid Sunday through Colorado/Wyoming. Looking to be up to 18" of snow at the higher elevations. This is for Sunday into Monday only. It's looking great after Monday. The following weekend for the drive home is looking fabulous right now. I'm not sure if we are going to head south tomorrow and head across 40 or just take the rain Saturday evening in the mountains on 70. We can't leave until my daughter is through with a horse show tomorrow afternoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IASHELBYGT Posted April 12, 2014 Report Share Posted April 12, 2014 Came across on I-70 through Colorado today. Great weather and mountains were beautiful. I've never been through in April with all the snow on the peaks. In Grand Junction tonight on to Vegas tomorrow and Palm Springs on Sunday. Looking forward to meeting everyone. The car is filthy but it will wash up. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twobjshelbys Posted April 13, 2014 Report Share Posted April 13, 2014 Man, what a journey thus far! Made it to Richfield, Utah today...haulin to Palm Springs in the am! Hey Dave, I hear ya on the dirt wagons! Can't wait for tomorrow:-) Stopped for gas in Richfield on the way home earlier in the week. Usually we make it from here to Vegas in one day drive (800 miles, 11-12 hours on the orad). It's a long drive but if we hit the road early it's too short to stop so we just go the whole way. If we leave later then we try to make it to Beaver or St. George or Mesquite. Be Careful Out There! The weather starting tonight across the divide is going to get squirrely.

If we leave later then we try to make it to Beaver or St. George or Mesquite. Be Careful Out There! The weather starting tonight across the divide is going to get squirrely. I left Co. Springs Thurs. a.m. and it was decent all the way over the top to Mesquite NV. From Mesquite to Mojave yesterday and got in early enough for a little free time with friends before tech Friday night. Today (Sat.) it was windy windy WINDY. The only 'issue' over the mountains is the run-off across the highway. It leaves NASTY water spots on the car that take a ton of elbow grease to get off. Once you hit Grand Junction the roads are dry. Hope to see some of you this week while I play around Vegas until the MCA 50th next weekend. Mojave is not going well. I'm running too fast and haven't had a run under 180 mph so I keep breaking out. I keep setting my gear ratio higher and higher and haven't hit the chip yet so I'll need to peddle it to get a time slip out of these guys!

twobjshelbys Posted April 13, 2014 Report Share Posted April 13, 2014 Yes we did. It was a beautiful drive. Roads were just wet in places. It's snowing at my house now. I heard it rain pretty hard at about 2:00AM, and when I got up at 6:00 it was snowing but melting. So far the rain gauge says .25" of rain (which we don't really need too much, as the ground is still saturated from the 18" we got in September storm that flooded the rivers) It is starting to accumulate on the grass now. I wish it would warm up and stay warm! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twobjshelbys Posted April 14, 2014 Report Share Posted April 14, 2014 So did anyone venture across I70 from Denver to Grand Junction today? I checked the CDOT cams a bout 2:00 and it looked really gnarly all the way across. It started east of Denver this time. Wow, it's a late "cold snap".

JeffJ Posted April 14, 2014 Report Share Posted April 14, 2014 We drove into Grand Junction last night to get ahead of the storm. It was raining like mad when we left this morning, but just rain. Had rain most of the way through Utah. Heavy wind down 15 through Utah, AZ, and Nevada. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll be doing another trek across on the 26th. After almost 30 years in Colorado the only time I trust driving across the divide is August 15. Thus, the GT is getting shipped. So far the major shippers are all within $50 of each other so it's purely weight and distance... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
