Anyone from MCV heading up to the NCM for the anniversary celebration on Saturday (8/30) or Sunday (8/31)?

I plan on heading up early Saturday morning. I am slightly over an hour away from north Nashville.
Hopefully I'll finally make it to an NCM event. I tried to make it for the 50th back in June but I had just finished the rebuild on Wednesday the 27th and didn't have all the bugs worked out.

I'm about 45 minutes from Hooters north of Nashville. (Depending on if they are tearing up the interstate that day or not.) Want to try and get some more and meet somewhere along the road...doesn't have to be Hooters :(

Where are you guys meeting at and what time? I'm going to the Vanderbilt Observatory late tonight, so I'm not sure if I'll be awake enough to make it up there.

Next Saturday, Mike. Where we will meet is not determined yet. Anyone have any ideas? I would be coming up from south of Nashville on I-65, we could meet somewhere north of Nashville like Rivergate Mall or wherever.
Rick, how would you be coming in from Clarksville? Wouldn't you just be coming up Route 41 into BG?

Rick, you need to write to savewave, Mean Grean, etc, and get your post count and member date updated from your previous aliases! Just tell them what names you've used, and they'll get you back up to snuff...

Did you guys hear about John (JR_VETTE) and his hood incident? He posted over in off topic, a truck kicked up a piece of sheet metal that landed on his hood...

Thanks for the concern Matt. I actually got some of it buffed out, but there are still some pretty good gashes (down to the primer and fiberglass). It'll live, and I'll probably just leave it alone for now. I hate to have to paint the hood because of it. I'll see if I can get some good pictures in a little bit.

If it's not a sailboat hitting me, it's flying sheet metal. :banghead:

Edit : Added pictures.



This is to the right of the first picture. Total of 4 pretty good scratches.

They don't look near as bad as they did. I took some polish and Zaino to them, and they look a lot better. I also noticed the sheet metal hit the windshield and scratched it also...argh.

Ouch...
Does there seem to be a greater amount of road debris in TN, or is it just because I'm driving a Vette?

You guys (Matt, JR) joining in on the ride to NCM next Saturday?

Ouch! That's why I hate to drive on the highway. A few weeks ago I got nailed with a beer can on the hood on my Grandprix. Just came of nowhere.

John, I hope you can get if fixed to your satisfaction.

I would bet a paycheck it either was thrown out of the window of a ratty pickup truck, or the wind blew it out of the bed of a ratty pickup truck. :mad
Like they told me five years ago, Welcome to TN, where Pickups rule the road, and the driver's toss their garbage out the window. :lolg:

Hey Rick, want to tag along for the cruise?????

I'm not sure if I'm going. 50%. I'm thinking about going to Atlanta for the weekend - DragonCon, the world's second-largest SciFi/Fantasy/Comic/Anime convention is at the Marriot Marquis, and ten of my good geek/nerd buddies are going.

Very few places in the world where you can share an elevator with five drunk Klingons, run from an entire platoon (40+!) of Imperial Stormtroopers, and hang out with tipsy young women in scanty attire...and tipsy older women who should never wear scanty attire, but do...:eek:

Really, sounds like one of my family reunions up in KY. By the way, someday when you get to be my age, you will appreciate the older women in scanty attire. :lolg:
