i just started at my new company yesterday. its kinda early to ask for days off. i could, but i'd rather get in good with them first. i'll be with SVTOA most likely but i'd park with all the CSVT's if they are going.

Ok thats cool. It just seemed like everyone was bailing out.
So lets get a list started of whos going, what days you plan on attending and at what times to you plan to arrive. As I will most likely be there everyday from 6:00am - 4pm. I'll be bringing a small charcoal grill and some brats/burgers. I'm going to try to round up the "Caution" tape that I used last year to rope off some area. I might do this Thurs night so that we are guaranteed a spot in the morning.
Anyhow on to the list:
1. Name/SN:Mike (CSVT#49) Days attending: Fri., Sat. and Sun. Times: Most likely from 6am - 4pm everyday(5pm on Sun to see if I win anything in the raffle)
2. Name/SN: Days attending: Times:

Dude...I asked for the weekend off but I was unable to get it cuz there are two other people on vacation during that weekend. I work at the airport and we just went through layoffs and now are short staffed. I cannot predict the future which is why I said I would be in on going to the show when you asked about it last month. Stuff happens man, my apologies. I would for sure be there if I got the time off but as it is, I didn't and now I can't.  Sheesh...

Understood. I just got a little on edge when everyone said they would go... I put the time in to try and get everything together... then no one seems to be able to make it... feeling of time wasted.
I would have thought that when everyone made the decision to go that people would have asked to get off of work on one or a few of the days. My first post was on May 13th, which was over two months advance notice. Most places require a 2 week notice for time off. I thought that would be plenty of time for people to fit it into there schedules. If you made the attempt to get off of work and crap happened well understood, if not, well poor planning on your part I guess.

I would've probably dropped everything and left my car alone if we would've gotten the 5 people together in the first place so i could enter with you guys like i said i would. But since we're not technically even going in as a group anymore i didn't see any reason that i needed to bail out on work. I was going to be in a rush to get my car ready anyhow...

Well from the sounds of things there will be atleast 3 CSVT there. You would be 4. Then I think there are a few from the SVTOA group. I guess we'll see. I still would like to meet up before we go into the show on Friday so we can all park next to each other.

I would like to. If anything it will be my brother, you and myself. I'll see if the SVTOA guys want to meet up there as well.
My car is going to be all nice and pretty for the show, the front bumper is getting repainted along with the Mirko splitter and the rear header will be installed this weekend woohoo!

I should have an answer by tomorrow afternoon hopefully about whether or not the SVTOA guys will be meeting at that Perkins or not. It sounds like they will be meeting somewhere... so if anything we could just meet with them.
As far as my car goes it's on the ground now with everything installed minus the front bumper and splitter. Hoping that will complete by tomorrow or Wed. I need to bleed the clutch and then its all done. Looks like my car should be a go.
Tony how's your car coming? Is there a chance you might make it still?
