We get together a day each week and knock out projects on eachother's vehicles. Each club member is numbered by join date and we go in turn with the projects. A member needs to have the supplies for their project and be present. If supplies aren't brought or not ready to start, they get bumped the turn. If all else fails, my Trans Am has a LOT of work needed and I teach how to do some of the mechanical and body work and paint. No dues to be paid, we just ask that you show up regularly and help with projects. I have yet to get our subtle window decal made, so there'll be that cost eventually. We meet at my house and work in the yard or driveway or carport and I have a small paintbooth in my finished shed with a good set of tools. We drink a little beer and shoot the bull (and the bushes) while waiting for paint to dry or if the work is slow. We'll head out to the dragway when the weather's nice to make some passes and hangout there. Bring your friends by, anything RWD with a V8 is Welcome!

Yea we all would like to get together one day. Not much going on in dburg but it would have to be a weekend thing for most of us. The way I work with kids dont allow me to get to do a whole lot thru the week. Maybe a few of us and ride that away one weekend and meet up and go to the track.

I'd be interested, but I'm riding to Houston this coming weekend for TX2K11.

You may want to consider riding over to Memphis one weekend. The scene is starting to pick back up.

The point to our little group is because Memphis and Nashville is a bit far. Although we wouldn't keep anyone away if they're from further away.

Thanks for the invite! We might make a few trips that way this summer but the point to having ours here is that Memphis is a good ways. And we don't just meet up and ride, we're into doing projects on our cars.

1997transamws6, I have no idea when there's another car show. I'm sending you a PM about our meeting schedule for this week.
