Brad, you're right....i'll be in Louisville this summer....so the "grill-out and 914 chaos party" will be at my parents house in Louisville,KY....any takers...?
Perhaps some of these will be happening:
*Engine Swap(1.7 for 2.0) or Exhaust Stud Repair
*914 Show-Off(bring your car!)
*Food or something....
I dunno....just tell me if i'll be partying alone or with 914 Fanatics in, near and sorta-near KY....

Put together an event..fun run up the local cruise hill not too far off of Dixie Hwy.
Oh.. next time... *ASK* before you throw up a BBS "backup" work with us...
We dont look at the site as being "down" a bad thing. It gives people something to talk about.. and it makes people get up and do something to their car.

yeah man i tried to ask and ppl blow me off....why?...cause i know nobody and I have no life...and i cut a pink car up....so i'm through with the backup thing.....good point tho...yeah man i hope you were joking about that cause i dont like to be called out....if you were serious, then that would be like PM territory

I wasnt "calling" you out. We very much appreciate the thought/idea behind it. I knew there was no malicious intent (new words I learned while doing time...LOL) We may even have you host a mirror of the site for failover reasons at a later date.
Hang in there. I know you meant well.
Now... get us some dates/times that people can help you out. Do a breakfast/fun run or dinner/fun run.. then end at your house with some help.

who's intrested in going? If I get enough people together, I can get a place at the local park, E.P Tom Sawyer Park.....and we can all meet there...just let me know. Also I am having a hard time setting a date for this, I would like the first one to be in May sometime, so coudl somebody offer a sugestion? I thought I could grill out, some music and a drive down the various roads...i know this stretch of roads out in the "country" that I always take...it's in Oldham County, called US 22...its a road that should have 45mph speed limits, but instead have 55-65-75

speed limits....just let me know what you all think

Ill try to make it.
Just a thought, My home town, Mt. Washington is having their spring festival May 13-15. They are putting a car show together for the 14th. They are closing the main street and will put hopefully 100+ cars there. I can get a phone number if interested.

i'll think about it.... sound intresting...i pass by mt.washington exits on 65 to and from bowling green...not far from louisville IMHO...just figured with a small get-together, we can talk about 914s and not have to worry about all the british guys.....

Sounds like a great idea -- I would jump at the chance to meet some locals from the board.

Hope I can get my car legal by then. At present I am limited to jaunts around the hood.
I would also vote for the weekend of May 22. Where do you live, Britt? I am behind Gardiner Lane Shopping Center on Bardstown Rd.

bd1308
May 3 2005, 11:28 PM
I have some things to update you all about
Date: the 30th doesnt work for me, as I'm in school and that weekend is memorial day....(my religious calender only shows the 29th as being orthodox Good Friday)so I have talked to some members here and I think the date will be 22-23....something like that. I know I would like Cole to come and he can only come on sunday....so I like the 23rd idea, or the 22nd......
Next: I need a admin to nail this so it doesn't sink into the abyss of forgotten topics.....please please.....
Venue: I am thinking about possibly getting a place at the park to hang out, since I feel this will be a decent turn-out....I would liek to do this again too, so if you can't come this year plan for next yr....but I will post directions soon......Please post here if you can make it......
So far these people are coming:

So will it be the 22nd and 23rd? Or one of the two? Or is it still up in the air?
I definately would like to participate, and at this point I am available on both these dates. But family and work obligations are also knocking, so I (an I am surely not alone) really need to know a firm date SOON.

I plan on being there but I need some directions to this park coming from Lexington.
bd1308
May 12 2005, 07:11 AM
Okay, here we go.....find out how to get on 64 toward louisville, and then get onto Gene Snyder Expressway.....going north, usually you'll see a brown sign indicating the direction to Tom Sawyer Park...it's not hard to follow. exit 32, Westport Rd exit....follow westport rd. until you see two gas stations, and a home depot. at the light turn left, follow road and Tom Sawyer park is on the right.
From cinci, take I-71 south (IIRC) and follow it till you see the gene snyder exit, look for borwn sign it'll tell you which one to take(there's a north and south). I *THINK* it's the second one though. Follow above directions from gene snyder on.

I will be there, but the teener is up in the air. . .
As far as food goes, I can bring some grill goodies. Mark, are you bringing both burgers and dog/bratwurst buns? Anyone know how many people we are expecting so the amount of food can be guesstimated?
With it being a state park, I guess beer is out.
