Today in Lexington Britt held the 3rd BG classic. We gathered at Kentucky Horse Park, OK, not as many as the WCR, but this aint the WC, its the bluegrass zone. We had 5 through lunch, then lost Bert. The rest of us (Britt in David Willoughby's V-8 car, me and my son, Robby and a friend , Katy, in his 2.0 , and Doug L in his tangerine clean room assemble special) then went on a great drive led by Robby. He took us in a very circuitous route along creek beds and by distilleries both working and not. We had lunch at the stylish "black tulip" restaraunt amid the monied horsey set. More driving through even better roads took us to the smallest ferry I had ever seen. After we puttererd off on the other side, it was time for me to head back to Alabama. I meant to post pics but I gotta resize and I'm falling asleep at the keyboard. Tomorrow I will post the pics

I had a fantastic time at the BGC It is always great to meet more 914 friends and family! I was a bit camera challenged (again) but I did get a couple of pics.

at the Horse Park, which apparently really is a public park one can take their horse to.

WOW; Looks as great as last yr. You don't know how sorry i am that i had to punk out this yr. But; She Who Thinks She Rules Everything and I reached a agreement. The event I had to be here for. WE, that means her had a miserable time. She even said " You really should have gone to Kentucky'. I will put that in the bank for
years to come. Glad you all had a fine time. Dave

Beautiful scenery and some very nice cars!

Posted by: Johny Blackstain Jun 17 2007, 03:05 PM

Perhaps next year... Kentucky is right next door. More pics!

Posted by: robby750 Jun 17 2007, 07:26 PM

I only took pictures of each car before we left for the drive. And Scott, her name is Katy, not Tracy! She took a lot more pictures but I'll have to get those later. Thanks to everyone who showed up, and to those that missed it......you should have come. Please try and make it next year, I promise you'll have a good time.

Um,..... his name is Bert.

Posted by: SGB Jun 18 2007, 07:14 AM

Alright, I give up.


who were you again? I kid you, Oscar.

Which one is me?

Really, I could be wrong, or is that right.

Robby, is his name really Bert?

Posted by: robby750 Jun 18 2007, 07:25 AM

Yep, really is Bert.

Posted by: SGB Jun 18 2007, 09:09 AM

Sorry Bert.

I'll go back and edit a few fixes.

Geeze, and I thought I was the one with bad memory



I had a real nice time this year, next year I will re-vamp things, with an earlier date, more actvities and door prizes.

Posted by: Cano Jun 18 2007, 03:26 PM

Looks like you guys had a great time. I was sorry to miss it, but had too much family stuff going on with father's day. At least I was able to spend what little free time I had over the weekend working on the megasquirt conversion.

Are you still planning to do megasquirt Britt?

Posted by: Jamie Jun 18 2007, 08:54 PM

Hey, that's the US-460 creek curve about 2 mi. from my house! And y'all ate lunch in Midway less than a 1/2 mi. from where we were having the Francisco Farm Art Festival-Dang!! I hope y'all find a date next year that allows me to join in the fun.

Posted by: robby750 Jun 18 2007, 10:00 PM

Jamie, I have bragged about your car to everybody that has showed up for one of these, yet none of them has ever seen it! I sure hope you can make it next year and really hope you can make the Fall Foliage Classic this year. Doug, are you listening?

Posted by: SirAndy Jun 18 2007, 11:32 PM

looks like you guys had a fun weekend as well!

You visited Woodfords?

I'll be out next year to claim my prize! I'll steal Pigott's car if mine's not running.

Hey guys who came to the event!

I need your help, remember when I told you all I would forget who bought a T-shirt, well I did.

See the T-shirt thread please, and pm me what you bought.


Thanks!
