Weather permitting I'll be flying the Bonanza up. I have a room on Friday and Saturday. Does anyone have an empty seat I can ride along with? At least I can pick up my "T" shirt in person this year. biggrin.gif

Update and a bump.

I will not make RRC this time. I had a room at Circle D and cancelled it now someone in our group took that room so that is good.

I really wanted to make this one since I have never been to the Bryce area.

Enjoy the event, be safe - cheers!



Crud...
Looking forward to seeing you both.

Pm me an address and I'll get your shirt out

You can share driving my beater if you don't mind how slow it is.
Where is the airport?
Need picked up?

Well, nothing has really changed since my Daughter's last checkup. I'm going to hold off for a few more days to see what's happening before canceling the trip.

I don't want to be 7 hours away when she starts labor.

Brant ... if it comes down to it, I will PayPal you the money for the "T" shirts.
G e o r g e
I am out, I will cancel my room on friday, if you want it let me know.

Well I know you wouldn't since you painted your front door the same color.

And Eric Shea probably has shoes that color so he wouldn't.

That is a shame as I know you pushed to get it ready for RRC. I think it was a build/conversion done in record time.

I can bring you a speedo if it's a stock 901 tranny. Of course you have to come to get it wink.gif . I hear you on low funds. I'm right there with you. I need a damn break though so my credit card is going to take a hit this trip. LOL! Wouldn't be the first time happy11.gif

Torque app for your cell phone. At least until you get a vss sorted out.

I would think the stock tach would work, just reads double for the v8?
JRust
Speedhut gauges are great. That is what I have in mine. Yeah just use an app on your phone for speed. Rpm's are nothing to worry about. With the v8 you won't be redlining for power anyway evilgrin.gif . Also the newer one's can come with a wire for Cruise control blink.gif . I sent mine back to speedhut just to get that added. They are great to work with & fast. Would have been great to meet you bud. Sorry you can't make it sad.gif

About 70 miles southwest on the Arizona border. Watching the weather close since we want to hike the Zion narrows before heading home
