Okay....time for our bi-annual meet with the GA F-Body Assoc. (GAFBA).

When - Sept. 21st-23rd (Fri-Sun)
Where - Reynolds, GA
Who - GM performance cars/trucks (F-Body, Vettes, SyTys, GNs, etc...)
How much - $10 to watch, $20 to race (these were the rates last year)
Hotel Info:

Days Inn
300 Commercial Heights
HWY 49 & 9 6 & 341
Fort Valley, GA 31030 US - Hotel Link

Rooms start at $62 per night. I would make reservations as soon as possible, since the F-Body guys bring some good numbers to this event and we'd hate to have the hotel fill up too quickly.

Rough Schedule:

Friday (21st) - Arrive mid/late-afternoon, eat, BS in the parking lot until late.

Saturday (22nd) - Wake up, breakfast, shine/wrench/tune until lunch, eat, shine/wrench/tune after lunch, head to track to watch Sat. night runs, supper, more parking lot BS.

Sunday (23rd) - Wake up, head out to track no later than 9:30 am, tech inspection, race, lunch, race (bracket races will be mixed in with test-n-tune), depart for home at will.

If you're interested in attending, please reply below to give us a head count. If you want to race, please state so. You will need a helmet (we'll have several) and be able to meet NHRA tech (they're not too strict).

looks like a small crowd this year. :)

Well, if you bring all the trucks at the shop, we'd have 4 owners and 37 trucks. That'd be fun to explain.....someone asks, "Who's truck is this?" and I answer "The guy down there with the Metallica shirt and camo hat."....... "And this one?"........"Same guy."...... "And this one?"........"Same guy.".......................

I'll be there.

Hood, any chance of dropping the truck off to you that weekend? More then likely I'll be trailering it anyway. Unless I feel like driving it or cant get a trailer or something.

Absolutely. Just drop it off at my house on the way up and either ride with me to the event or just follow me (if you wanna go a different way home).

Hood, count me in. I just made my reservation for Saturday night. I don't want to make another white knuckle drive through the heart of deer country, so I will roll in early Saturday and stay the night. What do you thing about grilling at the track on Sunday? Will they allow that?

Is this the same hotel we stayed at 2 years ago where the thugs were driving through the parking lot all hours of the night?

It's the only one we've ever stayed at.

Hey, I dont mind pointing a gun at someone.. :dunno: :D

That, I do believe, would let you go thru tech without a battery disconnect. Hell, probably without a helmet, clothes, arms, or eyes.
