589, floor space available? Posted by DR1665, Aug-06-06 06:41 PM
Right now, it looks like it will be just John (grain) and I splitting a room. Sike might not make it, Joe (Boosted Eclipse) is probably not going to make it, and Roman (widebodied) isn't going to make it. I figure we've got room for at least one more guy looking to split the room with us. If you want to throw a sleeping bag in your car and crash in a hotel room for basically $150, let me know and we'll set something up. The less we pay for a room, the more we have for bo0ze. :thumbsup
Just a head's up. My rooms are officially spoken for - I have the one, Tony has another, and Jeremy and some of the SoVa guys have the third due to someone shafting them on reservations.

Unfortunately I dont know if I am going to make it this year now either. I am awaiting a new timing belt tensioner, and if its not here by Friday, I wont be there. I wont risk running the beast when the damn belt slipped 2 teeth.
I am working hard to get it ready, but its not looking good now :(

its funny too, the closer we get to the shootout, the more excuses flow like water from the well.

Its weird too becuz last year when I was on my way up to the SO, my timing belt bracket broke and the timing belt slipped off. Its something about this time of the year with me and timing belts for some reason. Its looking good though, the tensioner and belt is supposed to be here Friday by noon, so I will slap it on and drive my happy ass up there. I am making it this year in the Blue Monster NO MATTER WHAT!

Yeah, now thats more like it :) Some may remember my fiasco several shootouts ago...had 2 exhaust valves drop, destroyed my ported head, JE piston, cracked my flexplate, screwed up my clutch...fixed it all within 2 days before the shootout. The trans actually was up and bolted in the car, like 2 am friday morning, and we left for the SO friday at 10 am lol. Hardcore baby!
