Myself and two friends are leaving on Friday with our cars and staying at the Marriott. I can't wait. I stopped by last year on my way to Cincinnati and it was awesome.

My brother is on the way now in my SOM 2002 WS6. I dont understand how they have no kind of racing at all. Sitting in lounge chairs behind my car seems kinda USELESS to me.

BadGirlfriend and myself are members of the Ohio Firebirds, and I am the president this year. Unfortunately, I am probably only going to Dayton on Sunday. Too much stuff going on at home this year. Who's your brother and his friends?

Russ is a NUT!!! The Nats are always a little more crazier with him there!! LOL!! My GN is not totally stock. Reds 93 chip, bigger injectors, Hooker exhaust, Kenne Belle full length airdam/air scoop with intake, some minor internals. Mostly done before I bought it. Is your 86 Russ' old T?

Sorry to hear about you guy's brother. Been wanting to try some of the Buick events, think the BPG one in Hebron I think? Usually do go to Norwalk for the Buick car show at Arbys during the Buick weekend. I have had the GN for a several years now, just never got into the Buick activities for some reason I don't know. Was going to try and do that track day that I think Brian Lorenz and Vince Janis were working on, haven't heard anything more about it yet.

so are you Russ's Little brother or Big Brother? (Sayin Big Brother to be funny BTW.)

Russ is a great guy.

TAvsGN came over and helped me fix/replace my headlight, again after I put the bolts in backwards and it broke again. He also helped change my oil and then helped polish the black wheels, which were looking pretty sad.

TAvsGN is a great friend and a good buddy!

Also, I absolutely got fried Sunday, my earsand side of my face are burnt to a crisp.

Also seen Jessica, Freight Train, there! Nice young lady.

You guys that have not been to the Nats are missing out! But I did uphold the OhioLSX image by doing a pretty nice burn out when leaving the Tipp City Cruise in on Saturday Night, you all woulda been proud!

TAvsGN was pissed I got the wheels dirty though. LOL
