Lightbulb PURDUE GUYS... Welcome back

Hey fella's,

It's Nate, (92 teal bird)

Welcome back. The cruise this spring was a big hit and want to get something together this fall. Maybe another cruise and cookout, or possibly a trip to the track, or Indy.

Also on a side note. There are a couple shows this weekend.
A big one in Rossville 20 min outside lafayette on saturday 150+ cars, and one on sunday at advance auto parts.

Nate

Hey Nate!

When you all figure out a date, let me know and I'll be there. I also will be down there this weekend, but in the truck again. Not sure if I'll be able to make it out, but if I do, I'll give you a call.

I'll be down or the cruise too.

I'm gathering all my parts now to do my top end build and when I finally finish gathering everything I was just wondering if anybody in here might be willing to come out and help my dad and I get this top end done. I'm doing le cam, heads, intake, tb, injectors, headers, ati lightweight balancer, timing set, and also a spec billit flywheel to add to my tranny.

If anybody would be down let me know. Any help would be apreciatted. Thanks

Clint,

Just let me know man. I am gonna try and make it down to this when it happens. I was at the shop looking for you yesterday, but was also at the car show in Rossville. Too bad I didn't see you, I wanted to know how your project is coming along.

Hey fellas,

Gonna look at the purdue football schedule and try to pick a good saturday to put on the books.

I'm thinking we might get a cruise together like we did last spring with some interstate/city driving, about an hour. Then a cookout after the cruise at the park.

Nate

I'm down. I sent Chris a PM back a minute ago but I'd be up for another cruise. If we get enough notice ahead of time and if I can find someone who will let me bum a garage space for a week or so I'll bring the TTA down.

I guess they thought It'd be funny to knock on people's doors with guns and point it in their faces and pull the trigger. Apparently, they're retarded and didn't know the gun was loaded.... unreal.

from a third or forth hand source, from what I understood is they were all friends and playing a prank on the guy who got shot. He was in the bathroom and the grabbed guns, when he walked out they "scared" him while one gun ended up being loaded and ended up with a bullet into the guys neck.
