also has anyone got that yellow z w/ the cowl hood w/ a flyer? I see it all the time around campus. Ed, I'll just use the flyer you sent me last spring and just modify it to work for this cruise
It is tentatively @ the Meijers Parking Lot off of State Rd 26. I'm a confident that there will be plenty of room.

Hey Darren! I was hoping you'd see this thread sooner or later! I know there are about 7-9 other cars from Indy Goat Herd, and then there are about 4 others from grrrr8.net. I also am bringing another car for sure (3) and maybe a friend with a Corvette. Jed (somethingelse) also said he was going to be unable to make it. This should put us somewhere around 40 cars if the maybes actually come. I'm not sure where else this has been posted, but I think its getting around a fair amount of local boards.

I am going to be so pissed if I don't get to come to this.

My transmission is on a UPS truck to Mooresville, NC right now. As soon as it gets back I am headed home to reinstall.

this is going to be an awesome cruise, take lots of pictures guys!

I appreciate it, but there is nothing more that can be done at the moment to get it ready. Plus the car is at home in North Canton, OH and I am in south bend, IN at work. LOL.

The transmission is in transit to Tick Performance for a rebuild and I can't do anything until that gets back. They have a quick turn around time, the biggest delay is waiting on UPS to ship the thing around. They are sending my clutch / flywheel / pressure plate too, so I am just waiting on the big package to get back from them.

Also replacing rear main seal (since everything is out), new front rotors, and fixing a broken wheel stud.....That is little stuff though.

It's going to be a miracle if my car is ready by next weekend. I've ran into a few roadblocks that have seriously slowed my progress.

Other than Easter, that was my excitement for the week.
what about the nice dinner on thursday at twelve islands?

if you'd have stayed a little later you would have seen that GTO group show up.

Weather permitting, I will be there in my 02 Z06 and possibly might let a friend drive my 05 GTO. Hope the weather is good!

I just remembered something I totally forgot before. I have to break in my clutch 500 miles no highway driving.

its going to be next to impossible for me to make it with my car......

I may still make it and just ride along with someone.....

ive never heard of no highway driving for 500 miles? its the break in period of the clutch so no full throttle shifting but i dont see a problem with highway driving. the clutch is fully engaged so it wont hurt it.

+1. I'll be breaking in my new Monster Level 4 also. Stop and go driving is better for break in, but I've never heard of NO highway driving.
