bump....its coming up fast! I am definitally there. already got hotel reservations for the weekend! Anyone from jersey area want to cruise down together? Its only going to be about a 3 hour trip for me. and my hotel is like a half mile from cameron park.

Got my flags, camera, and my car is almost ready.

Only problem is I won't know anyone going...gonna be kind of awkward standing there by myself

Everyone be careful getting onto the beltway if its wet, we dont need another repeat....


Custom spoiler will still be in primer. Hood half painted with a US flag painted on the hood

I'll be easy to pick out, half painted and obnoxiously loud

Anyone from the Hampton Roads going? If so let me know and I can meet up with you and follow.

Do we HAVE to have a flag? We don't, plus I am not sure how we would travel with it on a Syclone. I do have window chalk.

Hooray! I just checked the weather website and there is no reports of any significant rainfall!

I will be there for sure. 01 z28 navy blue metallic. I convinced my girlfriend's dad to bring out his 67 Mustang. It's pretty nice for being from Ford

Can't wait to see everyone there!

What do you guys think about showing our pride/support at the BK in Manasass Meet afterwards? a large group of us GTO guys are planning on that and I think it would be awsome for all of us to cruise on over there in a huge group/ line-up afterwards!
