I'll be there with my 93 n/a,  my uncle is planning the trip also with his 93 5sp and hopefully Don will have his 94 xr2 ready to play,  if not he's got 4 others he can drive up.

[drbob]

we look forward to seeing you and the royal family.

Well, something came up with my Dad, so I'm back up in the air as far as making the trip.  I also hope to have my IC and all my piping done before then also.  So we'll see.

Well, there are 3 weeks left, until the largest gathering of Capri enthusiasts in North America is held in Rockford, IL.  For all of you that will be coming from near, or east of Chicago, there will be a "Pre-Meet Meet" at the Subway Sandwiches & Salads, located at 2450 Route 12, in Spring Grove, IL 60081.  The purpose of this meet is to group up, and caravan to the main meet in one large group.  Due to the fact that we MUST be at the Rockford Speedway by 10 am to participate, we will be leaving the Subway parking lot at 8:30 SHARP!  Anyone interested in meeting up prior to the main event can email me at Cougar1prod at CS dot com.

Oh by the way, I looked at the schedule for the race track and the night of the gathering they are having a figure 8 school bus race.  That should be kinda interesting.  That is if you like to watch big vehicles collide.

[CapriTypeR]

Hey Bob-
Maybe we can convince them that your school bus yellow Capri is really one those "short Buses" that Bill used to take to school.  Then you could run it in the race!!

So now Russ has joined the rat pack to gang up against me.

No matter how many of you there are, how great the odds, I WILL win b/c I stand for.....

Truth, Justice, and the American Way!

[drbob]

Less than two weeks..... Get ready for the largest gathering of Capri convertible enthusiasts in the North America.   Come one come all.

[pmpsht]

This sucks....a week ago my Dad decides he can't afford to pay half of the hotel and food for 2 days.  Wouldn't you have to eat whether you were in Rockford or Omaha?  And I also just had a freakin CV joint start making terrible noises.  This is only MY luck.  I wanted to go so bad too.  Sorry guys.  I could get around the CV problem and just drive my Galant out there but I still don't want to make that trip by myself.  Too boring...  Please take lotsa pics!

[itsmeisatu]

Got my resvn made and calendar marked, all ready to go.  Is Russ going to bring his Celine Dion CD's again?
George

[drbob]

I am not sure if Russ will be there.  He mentioned something about "Lillith fair"  and a Cher concert.

[Razzamatazzboca]

Yeah ole Russ is dissing us.
He has a backstage pass for a private party with the performers but it's not Cher.
It's a cher impersonator who has been double billed with a judy garland impersonator.
Jamie Farr, AKA Cpl Max Klinger, of MASH tv fame, is the master of ceremonies.
Oh boy, I can't wait to see Russ's pix of that event.

[CapriTypeR]

You'll have to be over 18 to view the pictures and have a valid credit card!!

[drbob]

Hey George, I heard he is listening to show tunes now, so no Celene.

In less than two weeks there will be the largest gathering of Capri convertible enthusiasts in the country.  

This is a great time to put faces to the names.  Actually meet the people you talk to!!  I will be handing out small bags of crap to everyone (I got a new puppy)  so try to make it.  Imagine driving down the highway with at least 16 other Capri's.  It really is a sight to see.  

Everyone who has come before will be here again.  That shows how much fun people have.  When you talk about your car, you are actually talking to someone who understands what you are saying.  Good or bad, we've been through it all with our cars.  Yet we gather yearly to give our cars it's own special day.

[drbob]

Oh ya,.  If you guys think I write some wierd shit, wait till you meet me.
