Joe,

I was thinking the same thing the other day! I'm up for something.

As soon as it warms up a bit I wanna have you mofo's over for a bbq....I'm so ready for spring/summer.

The car is in the garage under a cover with a battery that's pretty much dead. I really need to get a battery tender.

If you drove it these things wouldn't happen.

I've been laid up since Christmas but should be better soon and then I'd be up for something.

Lee and I have a meeting at work on Saturday, and we are planning on setting something up for the afternoon, early evening. I will post up more Monday or Tuesday.

Okay Joe, it is Tuesday night, still no post from you, are you going to let us down early this year.

I have some work to do before hitting the road, I need more than 3 or 4 hours of sleep before working on the Vette first.

Tom,

Do you want to borrow my battery charger? It isn't a tender, but it will charge the ole battery.

Thanks Jeff, but I borrowed the father-in law’s charger. I'm going to pick up a battery tender from Harbor Freight next weekend for $3.00. I know it's CHEAP, but I've only heard good things about it. Figured I'd give it a shot.

As far as this weekend,

Anyone ever been to chickahominy house in Williamsburg? I've been a few times and they have great food. http://www.oldchickahominy.com/

Or, we could do AIK like Lee mentioned.

Just throwing some options out there.

No AIK for me, I don't want to try to get my big butt into a little kart.

Traction isn't what I am worried about, the little fellas would be lapping me before I could get off the start line due to the weight to power ratio. There is a reason I installed the SC, it makes the playing field equal.

Tony and I are thinking about another NC gun run to Mackey's in Jamesville. Any of you mofos interested in a drive this Saturday late morning? It's a nice drive down with a lot of open road that's real easy for the pack to stay together. We typically meet up at the NC welcome center on RT. 17 south.

Ok, looks like there are two options On the table. AIK at Lynnhaven in Virginia Beach at about 2pm, OR going down to NC to look at all the cool toys that go BANG.

Of course Lee, don't forget we have a meeting that will last till about noon. What time would the Carolina Caravan want to get started?

My original plan that Lee came up with was to hit AIK at about 2pm, let those who want to drive, and those who are not "built" for go-karts watch, cheer, and laugh at the others. Then hit a foodage joint for some grub and suds.

Sorry for the delay in getting the plans up, this week has been a little busy. Had a concert last night and Monday was my b-day (so I decided to work 14 hours...lol)

Eagleye, great minds must think alike. I was thinking about setting up a finery tour then hitting Hog Wild afterward. We have done Hog Wild before and everyone who went liked it. I will post up a few pics when I get home.
