Favorite things/memories of Spring Fest: The caravan heading down the Five and somehow surviving the Grapevine. Finding better routes and departure times every year. An excuse to load up my SRT and actually drive her somewhere, with my daughter and my mom along for the ride. Doubletree cookies and SF themed card keys. Getting stopped a dozen times or so between the hotel desk and the elevator to say hi and confirm that yes, I'm really ChargerGirl and I really made it. Beach Burger, great portions, springfest videos and SoCalLX slideshows on the tvs, plus LXes squeezed into EVERY nook and cranny of that parking lot and drive thru. Being close enough to Disneyland to go on Friday. The night before party (Ralph Gilles, plus a bunch of beautiful new models to look at). Cars and Coffee - watching all the other owners come check out the new 300s, Chargers and Challengers. The mad dash to get to the show and getting lost every time. The spectacle of hundreds of my favorite cars owned by my favorite people on an airfield. Samuel Hübinette and Dean Karnage Kearney tearing it up. The time trials and getting cheered on by both the woman who taught me to drive and my then two year old daughter. The after SF dinner with friends. Staying up and shutting down the bar. Finally managing to sleep, hustle the family and gear to the car, taking a long time to say goodbye to everyone. Reliving all the fun on the drive home and making plans for the next SF. Feel free to add your own list.
This thread is more and more depressing for me every day lol. It is every bit as awesome as Tam says. I am beyond depressed that I will not be making it out this year.

Steve! I can't believe you're not coming, but then you said you weren't coming in years past too. Oh well, you will be missed. Always good to have a mini SRT Ginger club get-together.

Do not tell me it's too far to drive/fly. Or the other 552 already signed up. Just sign up now! socallx.com Heck, we even have a Magnum SRT8 owner flying in from Sweden for his second SpringFest!
Favorite memory-Maddie having a meltdown cause Mom wouldn't let her take the stuffy that was twice her size to dinner. Lol What to do for an encore?
With 57 days until SpringFest, we've got 565 registered. If everyone currently registered talked ONE more person into coming, we'd have 1130 signed up. So get the word out, let's do it big with 1000+ enthusiastic, creative, outspoken, passionate owners in Irvine on March 24th!
Scratch that... All 11 2008 Challengers attending #SF7 are SRT8s. Exhaustion and stats don't mix. G'night.
