Rick,

Do you guys stake out a claim at the lombard show???

That Beatles thing on the 21st sounds cool. Might be kinda expensive for the Z to get there but the L35 (3.07 eaton) would make the cruise easy!!!!!!!

Are you guys going on the 21st????

[Mr70]

Some guys stake childish weekly claims,I don't.
I like mixing it up by parking anywhere and with anyone to meet new people each week.It's amazing what backstories,techniques &amp; experiences so many have to share.
We should be there on the 21st,either with or without my Chevelle &amp; depending on the weather too,as the clouds seem to accumulate around the Mop Tops quite often.
You don't have to bring a Muscle car Carl,just drive the family Hybrid and pull up a lawnchair.

I am really curious. In your first sentence, are you referring to myself and several members of this site who routinely park together in the same spot?

[COPO 70 RS/Z28]

The only reason I ask about it is If I went I'd like to meet some of you guys and I assume that the place is pretty big. I wouldn't know where to look.

[DarrenX33]

Rick I replied kindly with my question above and even PM'd you in the same manner. But it is now evident that your ignoring this thread. So I'll express my opinion as you did yours.

That's a pretty big grenade to throw out there as you know full well that most of the local members here like to park together. And we consistently gather early to do so cause we have all been good friends for a while. This is something that you obviously seem to have difficulty with. Saying something like that seems like an excuse for your inability to maintain friendships so course you try and meet new people each week. Simply put, this is a case of "the whole world is wrong, not me". Wake up man and take a look around you. Unless your completely comfortable with all the bridges you have burned in the past as well as the ones burned with this foolish statement.
