Central Ohio Gathering, Again?!

[70Cuda383]

so, today is February 1st. is 2 1/2 months lead time enough for guys to request off work if needed? I'm thinking Mid-April? by then the weather SHOULD be good to go, winter ought to be over by then, might be a chance of rain, but at least it will be warmer a little bit.

any weekends out in April that work better or worse for you guys?

Same format as before? show up, go drive, hang out, eat, etc.?

by the way, you guys disappoint me! I felt like I had to drag you all inside to grab a bite to eat!:jester: I had all kinds of snack foods left over!

[Branx5.9]

I'd be down. The days in April that won't work are the 10th through the 18th I can get any other days off that I need.

[3genDakota]

I'm thinking the 14-21 of April

[Last_in]

Can't do it the 20th weekend, that's my 21st birthday.

[3genDakota]

Can't do it the 20th weekend, that's my 21st birthday.

You saying you might be too fucked up to come to toms:jester:

[70Cuda383]

shit, celebrate here! what are your big 21st b-day plans anyway?

[Last_in]

shit, celebrate here! what are your big 21st b-day plans anyway?

Vegas!

Not sure if I want to go though, my sister and brother both got to go on their 21st birthdays. Vegas doesn't really intrest me that much.

[70Cuda383]

Vegas!

holy crap! go big or go home, huh!

I went to Vegas before I deployed. meh. it was alright I guess. caught a burlesque show with that playboy chick, holly I think her name was? she's even better looking in person, but, from 15 feet away on a stage, what's the point? caught some other shows, cirque de sole or whatever they're called. that was actually better than the "titty show" saw the auto museum, mostly a bunch of 30s and 40s cars. Honestly the coolest part of the whole trip was renting the Viper for a day and driving out of town out to red rock canyon.

[Unknown_element]

Im down but april 13-22 ill be traveling down the east coast!

[70Cuda383]

Well, fuck, how about early May then?! seems everyone is got something going on mid-April!:jester:

[Unknown_element]

May anytime works for me!

Ha, I guess. That's why I'm not too interested, seems boring to me. Besides the renting a Viper part, which I would probably have to be 25 to do. :jester:

May sounds good.

[Duvolant]

I'm good for either the 14th of April or the 1st two weekends in May.

[nevr2fast01]

im good for any day, but the dakota will be brought down on a trailor lol still working the bugs out of it :(

[Branx5.9]

May is great.

[70Cuda383]

OK. sounds like early May is a good time for everyone. Let's shoot for May 5th.

holy crap, that's Cinco de Mayo!! so who wants to turn it into a party? :jester:

again, you guys saw the house, I've got room to sleep.


do we want to cruise around again? or just hang out? I can try to find a different route this time, but hey, it's central ohio. the roads are straight and flat, kinda hard to find twisties around here!:jester:

[Last_in]

I'm down! Hopefully the weather will be good, I'll be on my bike.

Edit: and I'm down for a party! I can actually buy my own beer to bring then, ha.

Double edit: on my bike pending no more speeding tickets on it between now and then.

I'll have to take a shot at doing a "mexican beer" I'm thinking a lighter IPA style, but with some jalepeno peppars in it!:rockwoot:

if you bring the bike, then you should bring the truck out ahead of time.

drive the truck up with the bike in the bed, unload the bike, park the truck, then come back day of the party.

unless...we're still doing your build at that time...but I hope we're done by May!!!:jester:

That's why I said I'll be on my bike, because the truck will probably already be in your garage. haha.

[70Cuda383]

By the way, I'm inviting moparts guys too. You should get your dad to come out with his bird!

[66shelby]

Can we make it the second weekend of may? Trucks is getting a new paint job and I'm doin all the work myselfso its going to take some time. Plus the gf b-day is may 5th so it wouldn't work. The world doesn't revolve around me. But if it works for the other guys too that would be great to have it the second weekend

[70Cuda383]

I've already posted the date on 3 forums. don't really want to keep jumping the date around.

is one week going to make that much of a difference on your paint job, if you're doing it yourself?

and tell the girlfriend that her birthday is on May 12th this year!:jester: or tell her that her birthday gift is a day/night out with her girl friends, and that you're going to take her to a romantic dinner on Sunday night.

[70Cuda383]

Don't worry, I'll do this again sometime too if you can't make May 5th. I know that no matter what date gets picked, someone will want it to come but need it to be on a different day.

[Last_in]

By the way, I'm inviting moparts guys too. You should get your dad to come out with his bird!

I talked to him on the phone today and told him about it, he said he'll be in if the weather in nice. Limited to Mopars only? What about an Austin Healey 3000?




Also, I can bring my cameras if anyone wants a video of their car/truck. I'm working on my editing skills.

Here is my first one with the new program, pretty easy to use. The car audio in the original sucked, so I just used the go-pro audio for the movie. It can do everything, picture in picture, blur faces, license plates and so on. The last clip is when we rolled past a trooper, weird he was in Mexico.

[70Cuda383]

If you know someone who wants to bring out something cool, by all means, invite them. we're not elitists around here! ...although if someone shows up in a Chevy, they better expect to receive some shit from everyone!

(notice, I said CHEVY! if my Father-in-law shows up with his 69 Mach 1 Mustang, 428 CJ, 4 spd, shaker hood, go wing, window louvers.... the first person to give him shit about being in a Ford, will be asked to leave!:jester:)

[70Cuda383]

not his car, but this is what it looks like:

http://popuppistons.com/pictures/1969fordmustang/1969fordmustang18.jpg

(hell, that COULD be his car, it's damn near identical! same color, paint scheme, wheels, tires, interior color, etc.)

hey if you decide to go, you could come with me. Got a spot shotgun or bring your truck! any one else from michigan want to convoy down?

[BlakDak71]

If I've got the Kenne Bell on my truck by then I might tag along.

[fortino555]

I will, provided the blower is on it and the truck is worthy of being driven a few hundred miles haha.

[70Cuda383]

Bring the 318!


Patrick's 318 will be in my garage by then, hopefully laying on the floor like the unwanted heart of a 60 year old fat guy getting a transplant

[Andrewr/t]

I'm up for another hangout and cruise day

[DakotaNash]

I'll be there. It's gonna be a 4.5 hour drive for me but I don't care

[Unknown_element]

Anybody want to caravan down to toms from northwest Ohio?

[nevr2fast01]

depending on what route you take i might

[70Cuda383]

Anybody want to caravan down to toms from northwest Ohio?

Check with Eric (Fortino555) he was looking for guys in the Detroit area to caravan down. maybe you guys could meet up in Toledo/Findlay and come down US68 to Kenton and hop on either 292 or 31, and on into Marysville from there.

[DakotaNash]

I could possibly go that way and convoy with ya guys

[DakotaNash]

Maybe I could get Chris Baxter (99408kotar/t) to go too. He's not that far from me.

[Unknown_element]

Tom, last time I came down to your house I took 23, can't remember what road after that.

[70Cuda383]

the easiest way is to get onto st rte 4 north of marion, and stay on 4 all the way into Marysville, but that takes you through downtown Marion, which is probably the biggest crap hole in the state right now. it's a small town, but their crime rate has spiked through the roof, since they had to lay-off most of their cops due to lack of money. plus it's a lot of stop lights and 25mph speeds.

you could stay on 23, bypass Marion, then down just north of Waldo, hop onto Bethlehem Rd, (turning right off of 23) and that that across the corn fields to rte 4, and then come on down into Marysville that way. probably a good 10-15 minutes faster than going through downtown Marion, even if the GPS says that getting on rte 4 earlier is "faster"

[70Cuda383]

I used to work in Bucyrus as the GE factory there, so I drove that way every day:jester:

[Unknown_element]

may 5th is the locked down date?

i remember bethlehem road,thats the way i must have took.

[70Cuda383]

yup. May 5th. stay as long as you want, might as well turn it into a cinco de mayo party! ....and celebrate Patrick having turned 21 by then!


man, what a baby that kid is! not even 21 yet!:jester:

Cinco de mayo at Toms, be there or be gay.

68 days until my birthday!

yeeaaaaaa.....guessing that you probably won't be cruising down with Patrick.

see...he goes to school in Cincinnati. lives in Zanesville.

Neither one of those locations are along the route you would take to get down here:jester:


FYI, I'll have some drinks on hand, and some snacks...maybe I'll buy a box of burgers or something, but don't expect me to be providing drinks for everyone out of my pocket, so bring some of your own booze. I don't care if it all gets dumped into a "community cooler" just don't show up expecting to mooch:finger::jester:

I would love for this thing to turn into a hell of a party, and for you guys who've been here already, you already know that the house is plenty big for sleeping space, so don't feel like you have to try to drive home when you shouldn't, or feel like you can't partake in the festivities because your not welcome to crash for the night.

Anybody know any mexican's? or is this gonna be a bunch a white guys hanging out? :rockwoot::stirringthepot:

Once both trucks have the bugs worked out, I think we need a grudge match!

Regular cab, big block, 727, spray, vs Regular cab, small block, T-56, boost



Tim you have the engine on a dyno at all? or just estimating hp from the parts used? Patrick is looking for around 600 hp, or "500+ rear wheel hp"

we'll see how much the motor takes at max PSI. he's getting pulley ratios to max out the blower RPM by 6,000 rpm.


regardless of who's actually faster, both trucks are going to have traction issues!:jester:

Haha. I was a little worried about using a picture of meat, since it's a 'meet.' Figured you homos would say something about meat.

Tom, need me to bring anything? I can't bring meat it will spoil..:jester:

I dunno. bring your own beer, and it would be awesome if everyone could bring a snack, then we can set up a bunch of food for everyone to munch on.

we'll probably do a more laid back version this time, skip the cruise part and just hang out all day, talk about the mods we've all done since the fall. Plus, hopefully we can get a handful of guys from Moparts to show up in some classic iron!

so anyway, yea, bring some snack foods. I'll try to hit up GFS or something and get a big box of burgers to grill.

New Ohio member reporting in. Glad to see so many guys in my locale. Unfortunately I have to work on the 5th and 6th of May. I'll have to see whats going on. Maybe I can drop by after work and meet everyone. Finally be nice to have some people that share interests in Mopars. :rockwoot:

[gibbsrcing]

Honda Marysville. Across the street from Wal-Mart.

[70Cuda383]

Nice!! Your used car sales manager used to be my neighbor! But he moved about a year or so ago, not sure if he relocated to another city or just moved across town though

[gibbsrcing]

Lol. What was his name. We have had a few.

[70Cuda383]

I dunno. never actually met him! he lived about 5 houses down from me on this dead end street.

[70Cuda383]

Less than a month!!!

I've got someone who is going to send us some top quality hamburgers to grill, but he wants to know how many guys are coming, so...let's get a good count going.

Reply with "I'm in" if you're definitely going to be here!

[dehag]

[70Cuda383]

If you don't know where I live by now, then you really shouldn't bother showing up:finger:





















I'm at 22675 Buck Allen Dr, Marysville OH 43040

it's the last house all the way at the end of the road, which is why I get to do hellacious burnouts in the street and not have to worry about what the neighbors think, because I don't have any!:drive: --except the angry fat guy having his mid-life crisis driving an old rusty mini-van who lives across the street....but nobody on the street really likes him anyway cause he's an angry middle-aged man who doesn't wave, doesn't smile, doesn't even acknowledge you when he drives by and you wave at him! so, fuck him, I'm gonna do what I want!! (but honestly, he's not that bad, it's not like he's come knocking on the door to complain, he's never called the cops on me, didn't complain when I had the rusty dakota bed in the yard beside the garage for 6 months....so he's really not THAT bad!:biggthumpup:)

[dehag]

Damnnn!! that's like a 4 hour drive for me. how many r/ts you have showing up?

[70Cuda383]

I dunno. last time I think we had right at about 10 guys show up from as far as Canada. (about a 5 hour drive, across the river from detroit) This time we got one coming from Chicago (about a 7 hour drive)

[nevr2fast01]

[DakotaNash]

According to Mapquest, it's gonna take me right at 4 hours 40 minutes to get there.

hmm...I thought you were closer to chicago than that!:jester:

[DakotaNash]

I'm like 20 miles from the Illinois border.

[70Cuda383]

running through all 15 pages of this thread, seems that we have about 15 guys with a few maybe's tossed in there. a few said "me and my buddy" so it doesn't quite look like a "1:1 ratio" of guys to trucks, but so what.

so yea, maybe 10-12 trucks, and 15-20 guys from this forum?


Another run down of the details:

May 5th.
Bring your own booze
You're welcome to crash overnight if you want to.
I've got a guy who wants to donate some hamburgers to the event
feel free to bring a snack or something if you want.
this will be a "show n shine" event, no cruise this time.

Address is 22675 Buck Allen dr, Marysville OH 43040

Show up whenever, leave whenever. I live here, so I'll be here all day!:jester: The boys will have me up by probably 7 am.

[nevr2fast01]

i might just have to bring both trucks!

[Last_in]

After the half marathon the morning of the 5th, I'll be over.

[WeezY01RT]

id like to come......hopefully my truck will be done by then but who knows lol.......either way at least the truck will be there

[70Cuda383]

You should definitely try to come! maybe watch us work on your truck:jester:

Tim said that he has to be with the vehicle when he reprograms the new PCM, so I can't just send it up to him. that means I'm either gonna have to drive up to him to have him do it, have him drive down to me, or let it sit and wait till the 5th when he's going to be here anyway

[70Cuda383]

Hey guys, minor change. I am doing the same race as Patrick on the morning of the 5th down in Columbus, so instead of "show up whenever" I ask that you now show up till 1pm. but again, you're all welcome to stay as long as you want!


(my wife signs us up for the races and she didn't write any of them down on the calendar.)

[Branx5.9]

Works for me I didn't plan on being there any earlier than that:biggthumpup:

[nevr2fast01]

works for me too, i drove the big block 18 miles to work today with no problems!.......other than traction ;)

[Unknown_element]

tom, you need money for burgers,etc?

[70Cuda383]

tom, you need money for burgers,etc?

Naa, just bring something to share. Beans, potato salad, chips/snacks etc.

I'm only cooking one meal, but I don't know how long folks will want to stay. The invite is to turn it into a cinco-de-mayo party for those who want to stay

Na, I'll have the yard in good shape before the day of. can't cut the grass too early or it grows back, can't wait too long or you get piles of clippings everywhere.

Although, Maybe I'll leave the house open, he can come in and do some dishes, take out the trash, etc.

[70Cuda383]

THis weekend!! get ready folks!

Bring your own chairs if you want somewhere to sit. Bring your own booze if you wanna drink. Bring your own underwear if you plan on spending the night...or just wear the same groady nasty skivvies 2 days in a row.

See you all this afternoon!

[DakotaNash]

I won't be there. I have to cover a call off at work. It sucks being the boss sometimes.

[70Cuda383]

Thanks to everyone who showed up today! had a blast!


what's everyone think about a fall date? With the Nats being in August, is another date in September too soon? October maybe? what say you all?

[70Cuda383]

Great picture's guy's, what did you all end up in Jail ?:jester:

Yeah really! Where are all the pics?

[70Cuda383]

apparently I have one grumpy old man who finally got tires of guys lighting them up when they were leaving. I'll have to pay him a visit and kindly apologize for upsetting him, and ask that next time I'm doing something that he does not approve of, to just come over and ask me to knock it off instead of being a big vagina and hiding in his house forcing law enforcement to get involved.

they stopped by, got out, said "someone called about the burnouts being done" I told him "yea, guys have been lighting them up as they leave" they said "well, you guys can't do that, so please stop." then asked how things were going and if we were having fun. they were nice enough, but had to stop by since someone made a phone call.


but yea, where's the rest of the pictures? like I said, I completely forgot to take some!

Brandon, I saw your dad walking around with a camera! did he want those rims or not? not a big deal if he wants to pass, I've already got someone else willing to buy them, but that means I have to ship them.

[Branx5.9]

Yeah he snapped a few pics he will probably post them up later today.

I think he is gonna hold off on the wheels for the time being.

Thanks for throwing that together it was a lot of fun!

[70Cuda383]

Yea, thanks for coming out!

We'll do another in the fall, with a cruise again.

I have a confession, I called the cops.

Joe's four hundred and eight cubic inch R3 block, Indy heads and intake. Running MS3, and going to run e85 soon. Turbo going on this winter he said. I saw the truck last year in his garage, but it looks really good in the sun. Truck is hawt.

For those who missed it, the car is legit, I was there at LaRue when he kept getting sideways in 3rd, and trapping at 120.

And let's face it, track prep at LaRue means brushing the cow shit off the track

Rodneys car was sick! I would rock it :drive:

I passed that trooper when I turned onto Bear Swamp road. I knew where he was going.

damnn ya'll sound like you had fun. i wish i could of made it.

anyone ever heading north michigan let me know, that is for the locals we need more locals lol I'm getting jealous I'm so sick of mustangs and GTO's

[pacecardrew79]

tom, where did you rent that viper from? i'm going back to vegas in august.

[70Cuda383]

I don't remember the name of the place...dream car rental or something like that? they were RIGHT on the strip. we stayed at the ariana or whatever it was called, right behind the Beliagio...however you spell it:jester: If you go out across the "famous fountain pond" and cross the street, then turn right and head up that way, it was maybe a few hundred yards. it was just a tiny little building next to a bunch of t-shirt shops and stuff.

THey had a bunch of stuff to choose from. 2 different Vipers if I recall, we picked the yellow SRT-10. it rode ok, but the check engine light was on the whole time, still pulled pretty good, so I don't know what that was about. they had Ferraris, I think a Lambo, bunch of BMWs, Mustangs, etc. couple classics too. an old GTO I think?

Have fun out there! we didn't gamble at all when we were there, so the $400 on the viper for the day was enough "gambling" for me. Instead of losing money at the tables, at least I enjoyed what I got from "throwing away" $400 at once shot!:jester:
