Default Almost Ready For Colby
After spending the better part of a week cleaning, polishing & waxing, my car is just about ready for the show. I only have 2 wheels & tires to detail, the taillights to polish, and then the interior (IF it ever quits raining so I roll it outside so I can get at the interior.....)

Damn drag racing gets a car filthy!!! And worth EVERY smudge mark.

Anyone going to the cruise tomorrow if the monsoons let up?

We are, but our detailing will be limited to a quick dry wash and maybe some Windex.

The cruise starts at 3.....wanna meet at the Evt Mall around 2:30?

As for the show, it starts at 10, I planned to get there early (6-7) to get a good parking place. Not sure how they work it, but since I have reg #17, I may get a GOOD parking place. If not then I will park with the group.

I will wash it tomorrow if it stops raining. I will be there for the cruise and the show and will be happy to cruise with the gang.

The card I got from them says check in and registration is from 10-5 Sunday. The website says they are starting at 12:30 on Sunday. WTF???

No cruising for me today unless it stops raining and dries up in a hurry. Do you guys want to meet up somewhere tomorrow morning and head in together? Hopefully it will stop raining by then. There is a Starbucks down by the Stadium, right next to the Buzz Inn. How about meetin up there?

Yep, the cruise looks like a wash-out. I can meet y'all there in the morning, but I'm stopping at my fav coffee stand on 41st between Rucker & Colby to get my coffee. She's cute, flirts & makes a damn fine cup-o-joe too. (it's next to the gas station on Rucker)
