I look at that picture, and then at the description in your sale add, and your sale add sounds like a just a fender bender That wreck is nasty, you didn't get injured did you? Oh yeah, PM sent, don't want to drift to far of course with the thread

 

I'm OK. Mild concussion. Wreck is mostly body damage, plus a bent tie-rod. There's a huge vacuum leak somewhere; probably the broken vacuum canister. Runs so-so and rich as all get out. Sounds and smells like a beater twice it's age. I jumped on the hood to flatten it out and tied it down. I'm going to take the sale ad off-line for a while, until the insurance figures itself out.

 

I will go in something. I am pretty sure the truck will not be ready. The lumina is still questionable. I might end up in the Subaru.

 

Glad you are okay... I was so sorry to hear about this... scary stuff... keep us posted and we'll see you in a couple weeks!!

 

So what do we have for a head count now?

If enough go perhaps we can have an informal meeting.

We got 4 FTE trophy entries, plus whoever else wants to come. Like usual, trophy registration is still open for FTE members (and really everyone).

So, here's the PathogenProductions A.S.S. caravan thread. Some of us are meeting in Tysons Corner, VA midday Friday the 8th, and caravning up with some of the f-body people. http://www.pathogenproductions.com/c...c&f=3&t=000032

I highly recommend you register for the PathogenProductions board to catch race and caravan details.

We'll meet up around noon or so in Tysons, so those of you from further south can drive with us from there.

 

As the date gets closer exact locations for meeting will be needed.

Who is going?

A.S.S? Now there's an acronym!

Here's the list of folks I have so far, compiled from this thread and some actual trophy registrations. Some of the trophy registrations used thier FTE names, some didn't. I've tried to match vehicles.

BigBlue88 - Ford Ranger clone (aka "Cherry Bomb")
TurboMonkey- F150 5.4 4x4 supercab
MonsterBroncoKid - Jeep Cherokee
Franken-Truck - F150 4.9, gears and new tires ('cause the old ones will be bald by the time he gets done with them!)
65VAMonster- driving in something
afinepoint - driving in something (I hope it's that PSD!)
unknown person - driving a Ranger 3.0L

If you're not on this list, add yourself! Let's get an official/semi-official roster going here.

 

Count me in.

EMS Guru- 99' Expedition 4.7L 4X4

 

Bald IF I can get them to spin, its only while acclerating around a corner, and then only the right rear

There I'll be at the track, peddle to the metal, truck barley able to get out of its own way, front end clickin' away. . .I think I'll leave all the trash and truck parts in my bed too

 

the unknown driver is my girlfriend tiffany and shes gonna whoopp all our butts on the quater.lol if ya get chance steve change her name to tiffany it would make her feel better

 

EMS- Excellent! Welcome! Glad we'll have somebody on the team who can save us when nitrous bottles start exploding.

Sorry about the name mix-up. Don't see a way to edit the post, but Welcome Tiffany, in the Ranger Edge 3.0! I'm getting FTE members together in parallel with Jenn's efforts (the real organizer), but we don't share much detailed information. I know some people are hesitant to post thier real names, too. I'll try and edit the post, if I can.

Sweet little Ranger. Does it chirp second?

This event is gonna rock!

 

How many people are showing up to the event? Dozens? Hundreds? Thousands?

What should I bring eats wise? Hotdogs, hamburgers, steaks?

I wish I could edit posts, only thing that can be done is too ask a Moderator

 

Oh dang forgot a comma. Better ask the moderator.

We're looking at probably two dozen racers under the Pathogen Productions flag. Never mind the other people who are gonna be there when we take over the track.

Food is generally pot-luck. Everybody brings something, and everybody shares. There is coordination on this very topic happening on the Pathogen Productions messageboard: http://www.pathogenproductions.com/u...c;f=3;t=000037

Eats-wise, we're doing barbecue this year. Burgers and dogs. Just about anything you wanna bring is good. A tub of potato salad or chips would be awesome in addition to the existing promises.

It's BYOB. Everyone usually brings enough to share some. Details on the Pathogen Productions board. Anyone who brings jello-egg shooters will be an instant hero, and earn Ford truck owners the good graces of GM f-body owners up and down the east coast.

Things that we could bring:
Condiments
Breakfast (eggs, sausage, bacon, pancake batter).

Bring food and water to the track! There is very limited food available for sale at the track.

 

I can bring out the Jell-O egg shooters if I can find a mold... let me work on that... I'll update later in the week.

We'll be leaving later on Friday after work, anyone heading up then?
