Lee pick a time you are planning on showing up, I will cruise down.

Tom, have a good time, see you after you get back to town.

I am posting the address for others not familiar with Jenro's cruise in location;

1085 Independence Blvd, Virginia Beach

My wallet.

Actually, had them for several years. Had a shop fix them back in Nov but a couple have reappeared. He is going to redo the work. Told him I need it done by Waterside.

Next, I need to get working on a new motor.

Okay newb here in for my first cruise in and first w/ a Vette. I was planning on trying for 7:30 after dinner but since it looks like more of an afternoon deal than a night thing I will try for 4:00 after golf @ Ft. Eustis. It's going to be a long day...

Sounds like fun, GB has been telling me about Jenros and I've been wanting to check it out. However, I will be in the hospital until tomorrow so I won't be going anywhere this weekend. Hope everyone has a good time and doesn't cause too much trouble.

I should be able to make this... I'll plan on cruising out. Maybe we could all cruise somewhere after hanging out awhile? Just a thought.

Yes sure did Jeff, I went up to Richmond a few weeks back with brand new M/T drag radials and ran a 11,89 @ 119 mph still with stock stall,

Great time/speed. So when are you getting that stall?

I probably won't be tracking this year, doing some mods that will take me out of the picture until some drivetrain upgrades.

Jason and Lee,

Talk to the guys about VIR. At least 3 of the guys that are heading for Jenro's have signed up. This would make a nice Rat Pack cruise/race event.
