I'll be there a little early tonite, and Prolly wait in the parking lot for a few guys before we go in. Now I just need to wait for Josh// Darkhalf to get to my place this morning yet to put on the b&b triflow on his vette.

Hey guys, I suck with directions and just moved to Des Moines. Where in the hell is Rookies on 63rd? Obviously it is on 63rd something but all I can find is one off of White Birch and one off of Office Park Road. Anyone got an address? Sorry, I am the navigatory suckness.

If you're coming from WDM, go east on 235 and take the 63rd street exit which is the next exit past the 73rd/8th exit where the Wal-Mart is. Once you take the 63rd st exit, take a right on 63rd (go south) and stay on 63rd until you pass Park Ave. Rookies should be on your left.

Alright so that was a pretty good turnout tonight. I say we should schedule a cruise in a couple weeks, even if its just around des moines that would be alright, i guess there is the speed inc. open house. I dont know just let me know what you guys think.

Andy, I'm sorry I missed your call, we were shooting some pool at a bar & it was LOUD. I told Scott about your message, send him a PM & he can get you John's stuff or give me a call Sunday Morning..
Pretty good turnout tonight, weather needs to warm up still!!!
I even got to wrench in the parking lot....I pulled the passenger side valve cover & tightened the rockers in about 25 minutes...
I hope to not have that problem again!!!
A few pics to follow....

OK, there were alot more cars than this, most of the pics are downright crappy. These are the first ones I've tried in a while & I used stock settings on my camera. I'll get it figured out though!
Did anyone get an official car count??? About 15???
We made a visit to a friend tonight too...I totally botched the vid, but I'll post it any way...I took it with my regular camera.

That's not the first time you've pulled the valve covers away from home. I remember you had to pull the drivers side down at Eddyville last year.
Great turnout for the first meeting of the year! I'm going to have to come up sometime. There are some people on here I haven't met yet.

(I blame the guy with the black Saleen!!! He doesn't like to get beat! He wrenched on it for me up in Green Bay, while I was down here.)It was a real good turnout for the first outing...Good meeting some newbies & seeing some of the old schoolers too.

was it making alot of vavletrain noise or what Jason???? Mine has some noise to it also, but I have wanted to tear it down yet. Its from the passenger side also. Need to pull the covers and make sure they are all tight.
