    Would love to see you come up...no track time scheduled...but we would love to have you two join us. If Bill, Turtle and Jake make it, adding you to the mix would be a natural set!

    We only have two extra bedrooms, but lots of huge couches and lots of space...so don't hesitate...it could be a wonderful long weekend. The two of you could use one, Bill and Turtle the other, and Will and Jake would have to make do with any of the couches...

    Breakfast at my house at about 9:00 Saturday morning (26th)...caravan to the show before noon, spend a few hours at the show...maybe return to my house at 3:00 for beer and cigars...and an early dinner if people are up for it!

    Right now I still have one bed room left if anyone wants to stay Friday or Saturday night. And we have three or four couches if anyone else wants to camp in...lots of room.

    Kevan, I can reserve an upstairs bedroom for you and Rachel if you can make it...Alex and Bill are arriving on Friday evening at 9:30...

    OK...any other SRT folks from the Chicago Area that plan to attend this car show on Saturday?

    If it is possible to join us for breakfast and the convoy to Autowerks, we would love to have you! Also you are all invited to the house for refreshments afterwards...let me know please.

    Damn it, Roy.
    I just got back from a 2000 mile trip to Orlando and back.
    If I wasn't burnt from driving, I'd be all over that.

    Too bad there's no truck category.
    Then again, I don't want to go head-to-head with your blown machine. :grin:

    My machine will be well behind Mike's Paxton Boosted Red Truck, and Hilgee's Twin Turbo...

    We both are learning humility...

    Really will miss the two of you. We need some quality time in the near future...

    Attila will be visiting me from Italy on August 14th...if you are up for a trip then.

    Roy- great pics!
    And thanks for the "separation" one. LOL Now if you could just remove the dork and insert me....

    The 8.24 show has potential, maybe just for a quick over-nighter.
