Will also design the shirt and flyers.
Thanks for taking on this job!!!
Way to go on stepping up Carrie, glad someone did. Feel free to call me and pick my brain. Generally people show up on Thursday from 3:00 on and leave out on Sunday. I will be glad to help with my small bit of knowledge.
Shoe
where is Hallet? Thanks for working on this. Unknown if I can attend,,,depends on distance from the Ft Worth area and work schedule..
I'm back in town. Thank you to all the volunteers! I will be pm'ing you. I've just started the negotiation on rooms & foods.
I will be working on the drives.
It looks like our dates maybe October 4-6. Here is where it's going to be:
Spiro Mounds:
Schedule has been updated and the info updated.
You don't have to have a 914 to show up!
Bring your family and friends!
Thanks for putting this together Carrie!
So, I sent out over 100 pm invites to people in OK, AR, KS, MO, and DFW/East Texas that I could find in my 4hrs + of digging through the site.
Now, if you did not get one, that does not mean I'm deliberately snubbing you or anything else. You are still most welcome to come and show up.
Looks like a beautiful location!
Excited for this! Its a long drive, but it will be worth it. Anyone up for carpooling from the Michiana/Chicago area?
-Ross
Anyone coming from far away should try and plan a trip across Talimena Drive, either on your way in, or out. It's fairly close and has been the subject of a previous MUSR or two (which explains why it's *not* on the agenda for the official MUSR this year)
Personally I won't know for awhile whether I can make this one. Fall is horrendously busy for me. :*(
I'll be a tentative yes for this.
Lodging is set up.
You will get (2) breakfasts with your registration.
Lodging info:
Call in and reserve your room. You pay for it. The rates are discounted.
Type 2 Room [2 double bed unit]: $59.40/night
Type 3 Room [1 king bed unit]: $59.40/night
We need this place reserved for our tech session!
Type 7 Room: Split between 10 people $59.70/night
Here is what Type 7 Room looks like!

If your thinking about a type 2 room please strongly consider splitting the tab on the Type 7!
That group room looks sweet!

Carie,
I will donate a rebuilt pedal set. I found it best to sent it direct to the winner.
The winner from the last MUSR just contacted me to cash in on the pedal set he won.
I ask for a core pedal set returned.
Bruce
I will be bringing my kits and some hardware to MUSR.
The Terms will be Cash and PayPal.
Oklahoman's are restricted to Cash Only and everyone else can choose how they pay.
The best thing to do would be to browse my website at your leisure and write down what you want and the material you want it in. Yes, the 911 & 356 kits count too! Email me the list or PM it to me. I will set aside those kits and bring them to MUSR with your name on them.
Last day to cancel or modify what you want is Oct. 1st.

I have a question.
Do you say MUSR by saying each letter out loud?
As in " M - U - S - R"?
Or do you treat it as an acronym and pronounce it as it reads?
As in "Musser"?
Or what aboot "Mooser"?
Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask such a question, but I have just been wondering that.
Okay thanks.
In my 4 times to attend so far, M-U-S-R is the most common to hear I believe. I have heard the term Moo-Sir also uttered.....
Admin- Balljoint is out of the Sandbox, eh?
Balljoint -
It's either M - U - S - R or Musser-
It's definetly not Mosser!
TE
Okay! Now we are getting somewhere. Thanks to Ken and Thom.
So really it seems that the consensus is that no one wants to have to go through the laborious process of pronouncing each letter individually. It could be quite tiring, especially at the event itself or discussing it at a later date. We need to streamline things, and, if you terrific MUSRs don't mind my assistance this is a bit of a specialty of mine. After penguins and Bugs that is.
So M-U-S-R is a definite NO. No one shall refer to this event henceforth in such a manner. Well decided folks.
Mosser is also a NO. That being with a short "o" sound.
Soooo, it is down to MUSR pronounced Mooooser. Which I quite like.
Orrrrr, MUSR, pronounces Musser. Which actually is a word already, applied to Grandmothers or Aunts who, when seeing you for the first time in a long time tend to "muss up" your hair in a friendly, loving manner.
Hmmm, this second pronunciation has it's own built in depth and effect, how great is that!
I guess it really should be up to the attendees.
Don't devote too much time to it.
But it should probably be brought up as dinner conversation at some point this weekend in each of your homes.
Just reserved a room at the Fin and Feather resort.
Clay is correct. M.U.S.R., or"the ramble". Charlie Davis called it moo sir.
Oh boy, I don't mean to make trouble here. There really should be some kind of consensus though. I assume that no one listens to Clay, Betty probably says Moo Ser or Musser. What's it to be then?
Really there is an opportunity for you folks here. To have an event with a proper acronym. Not like the WCR "Wicker!?!" how lame is that? Or RRC? Erc just salivates over that one. And let's not get started on the ECC! That is no way to name a meal!
No the Musser, or the Moo Ser has the chance to have a proper name. This is great!
Jeez, who let you out of the sand box?
Last Day to reserve a room before they are released!
I'm updating the schedule.
Remember you need to have payment in my hand on October the 3rd or contact me and make arrangements otherwise!
Schedule updated!
Please see Sunday Morning. Optional. Leave around 10am and drive to Hallett to watch Club 914 racing.
It will be around a 2 to 2 1/2hr drive to Hallett due to the construction on 75/244/51. Toll roads on Muskogee Turnpike & 412 at the Hallett exit.
Ok, which one of you hooligans has my steering wheel? I'll need it pretty soon... the vice-grips are wearin' out.
I don't want to hear about any steering wheel jokes 3rd hand either. It's just bad manners.
Hope you folks have a safe and wonderful time. Wish I could be there this year.
Mugs in progress.
It looks like we may have up to 8 extra mugs (assuming nothing cracks) on hand. However, I am still waiting to get a firm head count.
Any extras can be picked up for the low price of $15/each.
Image to be etched:
Carrie

I'm going to call tomorrow and set it up.

Back to the Top......
Looks like a great time to be had this coming weekend. I know there are a lot of you Okies need to get out and participate. Always lot's of great door prizes and good times by all.
Thanks again Carrie for being the Cat Herder this year!!!
Really cool mugs Carrie! Great job getting this all together!
Got the shirts tonight. The early previews didn't even nearly do enough justice.
If we can get the Live Event Uploader going, somehow pics will show up.
If you seriously want one (shirt or mug), contact me Saturday afternoonish/evening. The local PCA chapter wants to pick me over on Sunday at the races. I will know if there is anything left on Monday.
I'll be at the Club Race @ Hallett this weekend. Will be looking for the 914 crew to show up Sun. I'll pick up a t-shirt and mug if there are any available.
Hope it's a success and good weather for the event. Sun. looks really good and cold.
I might be able to hook up with the crowd Fri. for lunch on my way through. If so, I'll call Clay to see where everybody is.....

We had a great time year. Excellent tours, food and group. The tech quiz was (mostly) enjoyed and everyone liked the tech session who intended. The car show was Outrageous. The DFW crowd were like kids in a candy taking pictures of the hail.
Dennis got the big award again this. I can't remember between today and last night how many times his name was on the trophy.
Clay got 2nd place in the Modified 6 & 8 category and he won the Dirtiest Engine Bay award.
Betty won 1st place in Stock 4 and got the Best Daily Driver award for the ? times now.
Travis got 1st place in the Modified 4 category and his wife got 1st in the Stock 6.
Richard got 3rd place Modified 6 & 8 category with his 350 Chevy and his Aubergine paint.
Dennis (of course) won 1st place in the Modified 6 & 8 category.
Tim won 1st place in the non-914 category in his nice 911 that gets 26 mpg.
I won 1st place in the Female Participant Tech Quiz by over 10 points (I didn't answer all the questions either. To busy bouncing in between that and picture taking ).
My Dad got 4th place in the Male Participant Tech Quiz.
