Default Purdue Cruise Sat NOV 7th

Who wants to get out for one more cruise.

Forecast is 60 and sunny for saturday!

I've had a few people ask about having just 1 more cruise before the salt and snow fly. Let's do it.

How about saturday afternoon. 3ish at the miejer parking lot on 26 and interstate 65. This will make it easier for people to find and gather.

Who's coming?

I will be going to Pro Dyno Tech in Thorntown to see if my car can spin the rollers.

It is the Papa Dyno Day but I think there are still some open spots. Its going to be like Saturday morning though.

$30 for 3 pulls with a/f I had to jump on the chance, never had anything I have owned on a dyno before.

After she gets off the Dyno shell be going back to Ohio to go away for the winter Damn I am sad that I missed the last one and this one too, I always have fun on these cruises.

*fixed* Thorton = Thorntown.

Sorry fella's,
This was just a last minute toss up. Weather is always questionable this time of year anyway. Just looked like nice weather, and I know a couple people have mentioned that 1 more for the year might hold them over till one of those warm clean days in jan/feb/march. We'll WILL be having another BIG one next spring. Last year we had 20 cars. Next spring I'd like to see 30, and I think It's VERY possible.

If you were planning on running on the dyno with PAPA please PM me first, I am organizing the event and will need to make sure space is available to hold your spot.

^^

if that was directed @ me, no i'm not gonna be running on the dyno. that costs money. I haven't really done anything to my car since i dynoed it in 06. well i added the ram air but i heard that doesn't do anything on the dyno, so i'm sure my 245rwhp/283rwtq haven't changed much if any.

The get together is still on.

Looks like it could be kind of week though.

Looks like most people have either retired the car for the year, or already have other plans.

I'm guess 5-6 people. Let me know if you think you might be coming so we can wait up.

3:30 at the Meijer Parking lot in Lafayette, Close to the intersection of 26 and 65.

when you say "close to the intersection" what does that mean? if i'm coming from the north, which way do i want to go once i get off on 26?
