As long as I am free taht weekend, I'd like to attend as well. I have a 2.o that I want to rebuild this winter with internals from Jake. It would give me the opportunity to get the case/heads to him to be cleaned up.

7 Miles away from AH is the Alpine Village of Helen GA... German food, German Beer and so close to Heaven.

I would be very interested in this event. Cover the whole drivetrain in 1 spot. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

If the people want it I will go there. I have no aversion to going to AH. Seems weird, though, Evil goes to Heaven (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)
By the way gloves, rags, cleaners, parts trays, aluminum baking sheets for parts cleaning spots, sarcasm, foul language (when no kids around), etc. are all included with the price of admission for those actually rebuilding the gear boxes. For those of you definitely paying to rebuild your box, please PM me so I can get a list and plan accordingly. Thanks (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |

If the timing is right and people can stay a couple more days I could do one of my tuning workshops as well..
IF you guys decide to have it here... It is up to you. |

Hmmm...a Dr. Evil transmission workshop and a Jake Raby tuning workshop. Maybe it's just me, but that sounds pretty awesome!
(I just hope I have time to get my car road worthy prior to this event so I can bring it!) |

That nearby cabin sounds very tempting and doable (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Any idea yet when this might take place? A trip through the TN/NC/GA mountains sounds like fun! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

The PNW one will be Sept 12 weekend, plan for any weekend after that (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Start suggesting now.
Just FYI folks, the clinic is 2 days and is working for 12 hours both days. There will not be time for grab assing in the hills until all the work is done. If those with working cars want to stop by and then show off by going for a drive, well then......Fuck you (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) I and the others will be jealous (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) yer from MS, where is the weather data from?
It is looking like PNW on the 12th, trying to do SoCal on the 19th so I can stay on the same coast back to back. You guys can have after that, will that work? |

Jake's place is actually better for me, but either one will do. I am pretty flexible on schedules. JoeO

There is no grab assing occurring here! If it comes here. I have a busy September and by far the best time to be here is in October.. The weather is awesome and the leaves are at full color.. |

The weather data is from Helen,GA. That's the closest place to Jake's shop that I could find average temps for. (Very near there.) I'm open to either location, but michaelmoo's place is about 2 hours closer for me. |

What the hell else could one ask for with Evil in Heaven and a lot of teener nuts. |

I need votes. Who is for Atl and who is for Aircooled Heaven. Lets try to get this nailed down this week so I can plan.
