I hear ya John! It’s gonna be hard on a show that was really growing that’s for sure. I’m still planning on going because I’d like to pick up a bed from Midwest Early Ford there. If not I guess I could just drive out to their place in Ohio.

John and Kevin,
I was talking to BJ earlier this week. I fear the GNF100 will be cancelled or further delayed in light of the Shades of the Past being cancelled. Shades Of The Past has been held for 25 plus years and it has a national following bringing $$$ to the area. Lastly at 51 years old and slightly rounder
, me and Tennessee August asphalt are not compatible as say we were 20 or even 10 years ago. So I will likely come up for the day on that Saturday if things hold up.

Ok, one month from today it will be a done deal, (or not). That means they have less than a month to cancel. Let's watch and see what happens. I'm pretty much checking their website every day. www.gnf100show.com

Yea Kevin, between health issues we have, August heat on asphalt, and the covid crap getting worse, I cancelled my registration and hotel today (there is an open room at the Black Fox). Guess my debut for the truck will be at Crusin the Coast or Emerald coast crusin in Oct or November. Boy, I hate doing that I really wanted to go to the GN this year... Hope there is a next year for me and the show

just a FYI I contacted Joe to get refund on my registration and he said since we're less than 30 days from the show there are no refunds, but he will apply it to next years show

We, the wife and I, are both having some health problems, not covid-19. We decided it was not a good idea for us to go to PF in August, so she canceled our reservations. We have motel reservations for the rod-run in September and will wait and see how things are then.

Yeah, you're right, the Shades of the Past run that we've gone to for years has been canceled, so we changed our reservations to the Fall Rod Run. It's held the following weekend, Sept 17-19. It appears to still be on. We're waiting to see how we feel in the next couple of weeks, and how things are going up there in TN to see if we go or not. The Studebaker is ready.

It’s a crap shoot. I was very surprised at the turn out of trucks for our Ozark Mountain Run this year. Grand could be really good because it’s one of the first F-100 shows this year. But with the Coronavirus participation could suffer.
