I'm bored, and there have been more than a few people saying that this should be started... 16-month sticky FTW!!!
THIS IS THE ULTIMATE DEADLINE FOR YOUR CARS. Do NOT miss this!
Who's going, in what, and what needs to be finished?
I'm planning on taking the Petty 'bird as the B5 car's been there twice now. My car runs fine but it's really never been apart, so I'm hoping to do a mechanical rebuild beforehand.
My friend Steve Kay is planning on taking his B5/white 440/4speed 'bird as he's taken his Q5 'tona those same two times.

I'm going..  I'm so ready to start a resto on my C500 this summer to get it ready for next summer but i know that a one year project can turn into 5 or 10 so i'm a little leary to start. Maybe one more car show with the hillside hemi is the best move. No, at any situation, i will make sure i get there. My spouse has relatives in Atlanta, so she will be flying down and we will spend a week there. Paul in St. Paul (for now) |

I'm planning on going too, just need to sort out a few logistical problems, like how to get the Daytona over from New Zealand!!
Seriously, I do want to bring the Daytona over and do this event it will be the trip of a lifetime; plan on shipping it to LA and then driving to Talladega.Would like to hook up with some of you on the way if possible.

Count me in. Odds are that it won't fall on the same weekend as it did in '04. That I couldn't make it to as it was my son's 1st birthday. Although if it does, I don't think he would argue about going for his birthday as long as some T5 bronze 500's show up. He seems to be in love with those.

I've been planning everything related to my Daytona's restoration around this particular show since before the 2004 reunion. I even started the resto on my car in 2006 just to make sure that I had plenty of time to get EVERYTHING done and sorted out before Oct '09. If it makes any other event prior to that, fine. Talladega is the drop-dead date though. The wife and family have been given 7 year's notice as well  This should be a fun event, with as many DC.com folks as are planning to be there. Oh, and this thread is definitely forum-sticky material... |

Looking forward to seeing Gene's Daytona once its completed, and hopefully its done long before the Talladega meet next year. I'm hoping to get to shoot tons of photo's of it this year at some point once its done and painted. Who knows maybe Troy will be rolling to the Talladega meet in a Wing car too, hopefully that is, if not I'm sure I'll drool all over Dana too.

Haven't been back there since 93 or 94. What exact dates are we talking about. It may be impossible to bring a car if it's during the school year as I can't take that much time off during class time.

I plan on being there! What a great first trip to go on after graduating from college! I'll be bringing the '70. It might be the only long distance trip I make in it before I begin the restoration. Can't wait to drive around the track....

Or RAC could bring it if he owns it by then. My car might be T7 by then or it will be a combination of faded T7, primer, and rust.  |

I'm planning on being there, and MAYBE my 66 will be done by then (Yeah no nose and wing, but it is still a cool B-Body!!!
I told Mike (NYCMille) about this a while back and he sounded excited about it. Maybe Project Angrier will slide down from NYC!!!!!
