I won't be making the trip with all of you (I live in N. Alabama and will be coming with others), but I hope to see all of you there. Been looking forward to the gathering ever since G9. Last year was the first year for me and I had a blast. I strongly encourage everyone that can to attend. It's a good opportunity to look at some awesome F-bodys and meet new folks.

Heck I enjoyed it so much last year, that I ended up buying my own SS about three weeks ago!!

Can't wait to go back!

Marv, let's see some pics. How much of a drop?

LuvMyZ...I'll try to get some pics up here pretty soon. I don't have any that I've personally taken yet (only had the car about 3 weeks or so), but I'll get some up here that the previous owner sent me when I first looked at the car.

I like the look of the drop, but I'm kind of having a dilemma with it. I know it'll kill my traction from a dig. Kind of considering my options at this point.

Marv, from what I've read you need to install lower control arm relocation brackets to help control the launch and wheel hop. I tried a smooth bellows and couldn't get it to fit right without the risk of breaking my lid. Good luck with yours.

Here's some info on Hotels in Louisville:

I looked for hotels in the 'nice' side of town for security reasons for the cars. There are ones that would probably be ok...closer to I65, but not in as nice an area and not any cheaper.

The following are next to restaurants/gas and these are @ group rates:
Microtel East @$45.95 - single/double - 55.95 plus taxes. They are even willing to ask for extra police patrols for added security for us!
Days Inn Hurstbourne @ $44.95 plus taxes. Right behind an Olive Garden.

If you want to stay closer to I65, let me know. But these are very easy to get to, and I'd draw a map or even provide an "escort" to the hotels (from say the Indiana/KY border) if you want LOL.
