I'm leaving Wednesday night at 10. Should be there by noon on Thursday. First time towing and dont want to fight traffic. If you see me stop by and say hello. I'll shake hands with a wall. :)

How many other guys going?

Jason
 
hmmm I thought it was the weekend of the 10th. I might end up going now, Jim you got any extra room again to squeeze me and probably one other person in? We could have a nice showing of TTAs, me and you to show what a nice TTA looks like, and Jason to show what happens when a hilljack owns a TTA :D
 
Jim wont take his car because it might get dust on it and my car...well its a shitbox that will probably grenade first pass.
 
If I had a enclosed trailer I might bring my TTA. They did'nt seem to care for TTA's in Bowling Green so I'll see how they are liked at this event. Maybe one year I'll trailer it out. If I get some bugs in the GN worked out and if it's not going to rain I'll drive the GN out.

Jason make sure those break away chains are not dragging when your towing the car. They will wear away and break off real fast!
 
well i got here..799.8 miles, one nail, 15 hours, and 14.6 MPG not to shabby. Got the TTA teched in and dropped at the track under the shade...damn this sun is hot

Have Fun!! Wish I could be there!!! And the sun is brutal latley!

You should come down here tomorrow and we can meet up and then ride down to Ohio. Heck I just decided I was going to go last week. I'm taking my Mazda now though, it's too much work to get a trailer and haul the TTA and everything. I'm just gunna go enjoy the weekend and relax.
 
I'm here! 7 hour ride for me. Much better ride then Bowling Green that's for sure! I drove the GN. Got 23mpg with the AC on! Ac was coming out of the vents around 42 degress. Nice and chilly! Pics will be up as soon as I start takin them!

Wow, at a slow 23mph I would've thought the drive would be a bit longer! :WOOT:

Anyone going to the TA Nats in Dayton, OH at the end of the month? Depending on my schedule I might stop by this year if I'm up that way.

:cheers:

We had a wonderful time. Father in law and I had the privledge to met PhillyTurboSix, Quicky One, J. Cotton and a lot of other Turbo Buick racers.

The Event had a lot of items for sale. All the big name vendors were present. Great deals but I ended up spending all my money on food and rum.

Wow! These Buicks can RUN!!! I seen 7 second cars and cars trapping 175 mph. Classic matchups!! Older Buicks versus GN's and TR's. I also seen GNX # 1 !!!!!!!!

I really enjoyed the event. Hope we can met again. Next time the TTA will be present.

GNX #1 was AMAZING !!!
 
Jason, tearing it up at the track. Nice going !!! His best time was 12.30 ! I have him on video running a 12.50 . Hey Jason, did you have your A/C on and your windows down on that run. j/k, hahaha

Wow, was it hot. I think the temp. was 100 degrees. Jason would have been in the 11's on a cool day. We are all proud of you !!!

When I get home I will upload my pics and video. Over 8 mins of video and 60 pictures. Hopefully Jim can upload some video.
 
Congrats to Jason Papageorge. First time down the track at 16 years old in the TTA. He ran a best of 12.3 Not bad for his first time out!
