we need to get your truck back together or you'll be driving a beat up Jetta to the Nats!:jester: haven't heard from Gus, nor have I heard from IPS yet either. and I'm leaving late this afternoon for Pittsburgh, by the time I get back Friday, I bet IPS will be closed. (maybe they'll call me today)

Haha, forget that, I'll just take my dads Road Runner. He is going to a wedding so it's just going to be sitting in the garage. That Jetta is beat, though.

Just to show how beat up it is.

Why are you driving a girls car?

That's not even the worst part, the A/C doesn't work and it has 235K miles on it. Going to work in the morning isn't bad at 6 am, it's leaving in the afternoon that kills. Even with all the windows down, it looks like I just went jogging.


Why are you driving a girls car?

It's my cousins first car, she drives by the sense of touch. Her mom bought her a new civic but this car was just sitting so I took it. Hoping not to exactly buy it off of them but I wouldn't mind driving it in the winter.

At least I have this thing. Also, the Duango I was driving for awhile, until my dad wanted it back, ha.

Yup, I'll be getting in Thursday night so I'm there all Friday and Saturday. I think just the truck is coming. The tribute car this year is the Duster but we don't have a trailer to get it there.

Bummer, is there a local forum that you're on? Someone might have a trailer. Also, U-haul isn't that expensive.

I'm not too plugged into the car scene since I've moved to NC. I'll plug some numbers on a U-haul. The other issue is that the car is fine for cruising but if the heat wave continues, it can only last a few minutes before the temp starts to skyrocket if idling in traffic. Car is fine until temps start getting into the mid/upper 80s but then it becomes a gamble. But that's what a trailer is for anyway.

Only time you'd have a problem is the line in the morning to get through the gates, but you could always leave it there over night and not mess with the line in the mornings.

Bring the Duster this year, and the truck next year!

if I get the truck up and running, could I bring the dakota? or is it only for the classic mopars?

Filthy Filbert

Do you really think the event organizers will turn away your money? It's open to all mopars, new and old. They'll be brand new off the dealer lot ram pick-ups, vipers, challengers, chargers, neons, PT cruisers, and quite possibly mini-vans!

I'm definitely there saturday afternoon, and cruising in the evening.

now I just gotta figure out what I'm gonna do. getting my axle to Chicago to trade with the guy on Dak-Dur, my 3.92s for his 4.56s, might fall through this weekend...and the truck is ripped apart now! I really don't want to put my axle back in just to cruise the nats, only to rip it right back out to do the trade later.

so, if I can't get axles traded between now and say, thursday, then I probably won't be going in the reg cab.

Heath is tearing up 79 this week, it'll be one lane and down to the base. One lanes already torn up. That's what I read on a local forum today, anyways.

Well, their cops have pretty much outlawed any of the fun that was happening there anyway. I'm afraid most of the action that made the Mopar Nats so fun won't be found anymore.

I went to Somerset Ky. in May as it is the Mopar featured month. I was surprised that while police presents was heavy, they were very lenient on out of town visitors, but cracked hard on locals. Saw several light to light runs, and alot heavy throttle runs.
I'm hoping Speedway/Clermont police are forgiving at Monster Mopar in Sept.

Ehh, there's a reason why the Mopar Nats left IRP. I wasn't there the year the cops went crazy and started arresting people left and right, but my dad says it was out of hand and really uncalled for as all it did was make more folks combative to them. Who knows, that was a long time ago now.

Yea, I remember the caos. I spoke briefly with the new owner of Monster Mopar, he said he is speaking with the Police dept's prior to the show, in hopes of having an some allowance for fun on the streets.
