Anybody going? There is a pretty big group of us that are supposed to show up. If you want to go let me know and we can all cruise up together or figure something out. I'm always down for meeting new people.

Just got my trans and everything going last night. Still need to break it in a little and get it tuned. I doubt I will make it out. Probably just go up to the car show instead...

I will be there for sure, as long as the rain holds out. Should be a good number of guys from Champaign coming up. Again assuming it stays dry.

Hope to see you all there
