Sorry I missed you today Allen, spent the day shopping with the wife for boarding clothes.

It's alright Denise. I know you'z whipped.

Vince, March 19, 20, 2005. I should be able to make it both days. I'm not hitched, and I got nothing better to do anyway.

Anyone else want to come? Please? We can be the P-T.com posse taking over the place. We can even go around snapping our fingers and dancing around like it's west side story or something....

Crap. I need my medication again.

02-13-2005, 10:08 PM
Why don't we all actually buy entry passes....have a P-T under construction area? It is cheaper to enter the show than to buy a 2-day pass, + you get to park inside instead of walking.

Not whipped, some of us enjoy spending a few minutes a week with our spouses.

MrQuick
02-13-2005, 11:24 PM
actually Den they already have a set up, its called the car coral...he haa ha he ... i'll put in my vaca. time tomorrow.
hey Allen I've got the outfits for the P-T take over crew...of what 12???
Don't feel bad Den, I went wedding shopping at Hillsdale this morning...Crate and Barrel whoo- hooo. It was funny I was looking at all the TIG welded kitchen furniture they had there........yuck

Hi Mike, im going both days, cutting it short on Sunday of coarse to get back to work! ;) We'll find out from ever one else as it gets closer.
Hey Den we could do the Corral...its $40 and includes 2 entrants(<--is that a word?) fees. We could park in a coner near the side road so we could get out easier, and sneek the cars into the show??? damn do I have a car to take??????? he haaaaaaaa

02-14-2005, 03:17 PM

zbugger
02-14-2005, 08:41 PM
So I got a message from Vince. He want's us to be visible and stand out and really represent the site. He's thinking we should all dress up in a sort of a uniform. This is his idea. Any takers?

:lmao: Vince, You rockin a Pompador?? :lmao: if so will my mullett wig do the trick?? but on a serious note my buddy has a graffix/screenprint/etc. shop let me know I could get him to make some pt shirts prolly fer the cost of the bulk shirts like 2-3 bucks a piece I think with no minimum order required..........he owes me i'm refing his house right now and gettin him the cash out to buy a boat...

zbugger
02-14-2005, 10:12 PM
J.T., We already got P-T.com shirts through Larry. He sells them if you want one. That's the same thing I do too. I can't say what the shirts cost though. It's evil.

Will do.

TonyHuntimer
03-17-2005, 07:41 AM
I don't care if it rains. My car has been out of operation for months while I finished up on the Ford book and started pursuing a writing career. The rain gives me a chance to use my DSE wiper motor.

My car will roll out of the garage today. I don't plan on missing an excuse to drive my car... rain or shine. If I need a dry place to stand, I'll go hang out at the DSE trailer.

I plan on being inside the show area. Is that the Corral area? Is the Corral better than the show? What are the costs?

MrQuick
03-17-2005, 10:49 PM
Ok fine i'll be there on Sunday for sure, Saturday too if Dennis gives a good word. Hell if it does rain lets do Fudruckers for lunch. :bananna2: Tony, did you ask Kyle if you could be in his booth? Alot better than the car corral. If you can get an inside spot grab it. Chevelle is going bye bye so I won't be trying to sell it now.

dennis68
03-17-2005, 11:01 PM
Fudruckers...cool. I'll let you know Saturday morning how it is, I'll be at the kids baseball game till 11:00.

yeah im down, hollar!


If we don't make this one, WE are definatly going to Delmar!!!

TonyHuntimer
03-18-2005, 09:31 PM
Unless you can perform a valve job on four valves, extra hands won't help. :( Thanks for the thoughts though.

I'll be there Saturday for most of the day. Sunday I'll be working on the car and doing some author work.

Did we have a meeting place setup? I was just going to go to the DSE trailer.

I won't be there until about 9AM.

Vince/Allen, you guys going? Worst case we can hang out for 1/2 hour and do early lunch over at Fudruckers. If it rains like it today it's not too bad here, light sprinkle, steady but real light.

I'll call Vince about 10:00ish, looks like baseball is going to be cancelled.

03-18-2005, 10:36 PM
have fun in the rain suckers! I'll be in crummy bakersfield making deals....no not those kind.

MrQuick
03-18-2005, 11:34 PM
Hey Tony,
We can meet you at the DSE booth, did you talk to Kyle, I assume he's here.

Cody, go make some money biatch! dennis can you call earlier? PM sent

TonyHuntimer
03-18-2005, 11:44 PM
I didn't call Kyle earlier, but I'll give him a buzz in the morning. I'm 99% sure he's going to be at the show. Last I heard, he was in New Mexico on his way out here. There's no way he would come to California and not do the show. That would be a long way to come and not promote his products. :)

dennis68
03-19-2005, 08:55 PM
Kyle....small turnout. Weather isn't too bad, not great either-rain on and off.

Ahhh, whats the matter Allen, can't handle the 2/3 lbs'er. You wussy.

I came home and had a half a pizza to wash mine down.

Charley, when did you leave? Saw your car at the DSE booth and looked for you to say hi, but didn't see you around. Came back later and you had bugged out. I don't blame you, wet is right. The parking outside was SLOP. I saw a couple people bury their cars in the mud. No such problem for me, we pulled into the slop and hit the nitrous and propane in my buddy's diesel Dodge and had a GIGANTIC mud roost display. Had a lot of people cheering us on, LOL. Something about 1200 ft-lbs of torque and a billowing black cloud of soot is entertaining. :icon996:
