Default G16 Fbody Gathering - May 25-27 - Atlanta, GA

This will be my 6th year going. This will be my 3rd car I bring, and hopefully the last. This is such a fun event for everyone going, even if you don't own an F-Body. Scott Settlemire (lead Fbody designer), and many other top GM guys show up. 6LE guys showed up last year. If you are in the South, (or anywhere for that matter, 6LE made the trip from California) then you need to come to this event. One of the best I've attended. Lots of discounted stuff for sale. Lots of contests, lots of cruise-ins. The best part is the night parties in the parking lot!! Last year in the bouncy tent, the people in charge got to know me by name, damn that Jagermeister

Who's going!?

Of course, it's really a no brainer.

104 days until G16. G10 was my first, wouldn't dream of missing one now. Hope to be the best ever!

This is going to be my first year going... I finally got my car where I'm not going to be totally ashamed to bring it around other f-bodies... Hopefully I get my paint done before then...

Don't let shame stop you, we get cars in primer each year. It is not so much about showing off, its much more about hanging with F-Bod enthusiasts. You will really have to work to NOT make 10 new friends over the weekend.

So I've heard... Well I've got a few homeboys that I'm gonna roll up there with... Have they released the location yet? And do you have to register or anything for the event?

I'm reasonably sure we'll be bringing down my Drag Radial car to the gathering as well. We brought it down a couple years ago and had a great time!

Same spot for the last 10 years or so. You have to register to park with the show cars, and to be judged. There is parking available if you just want to stop by and walk around. The best experience is to register, stay at the hotel, and be able to hang out all night. Here is the site with details. Registration link usually activates in March. http://www.fbodygathering.com/

Just checked out the site, thanks... I'm gonna make sure I register... I live in Atlanta, so I'm not gonna worry about the hotel... Just don't know about partying all night though because then I've got to let my girl drive home lol...

Also if last year is any indication, you will have to work really hard to NOT win an award lol.

This is on my list of things to do. I'll already be in ATL on business that week before. I just don't know how I feel about leaving my camaro in downtown ATL all week.

Question - what goes on at the event besides the car show? The event schedule is lacking much detail - http://www.fbodygathering.com/Schedule.php

The main page mentioned your entry fee covers: Car Show, any event competitions, parties, rallies, cruises & door prize eligibility. What event competition and rallies have been held in the past?
