Sounds to me like it wasn't too 'amicable' of a split-up . Sorry to hear it . Tell me more 'bout your new job ... now that you've peaked my curiosity . I hope you have lots of sucess there , Mark !

I'd love to come, but in the first week of May I'll be taking my last college undergrad exams ever!!....so a week or two in either direction would be best for me.

For next year's Spring Zing, invite reps from Mazda to show the new '6' sedan with the updated Duratec.

Should I drove all the way from California next year and then have to go all the way back to Sturgis for a friends wedding/party in June??

I think I might be able to make it to SZ this year (no finals ). You wanna room together, Mike?
Posted By: 69Boss302_dup1 Re: How long till Spring Zing 03 ?? - 10/02/02 12:29 AM
Sure Dereck, as long as I can make it.
Posted By: jlanger_dup1 Re: How long till Spring Zing 03 ?? - 10/07/02 03:14 AM
Where abouts in SE Michigan? I'm seriously considering coming out this year, SE Mich and Omaha aren't too far for me so I should almost be able to make it to both. Any cheap places to stay?
Posted By: AirKnight Re: How long till Spring Zing 03 ?? - 10/07/02 03:44 AM
Finals week May 1st to May 8th... Hopefully I won't have a Saturday exam again. If I do, then you don't get to see the 1st 3L 95.

There is a considerably large thread on the subject in the general forum.

But it won't be there for long... and that is a major problem---

I just love the part of trying to inform everybody on here! I sent PMs to both Lance and Perry requesting that the threads on the two major meets be frozen at the top, but we'll see if it actually happens...

This has to be one of the most frustrating parts of organizing these things. Yeah, today those threads are here, but in a few weeks they will be gone and forgoten. There needs to be a way to keep this in the spot light at all times...

I just went onto www.mapquest and picked a hotel at random just to see how far it was. I came up with 755 miles and 12 hours, no sweat Let the countdown begin.....
Posted By: Derk-xB Re: How long till Spring Zing 03 ?? - 12/06/02 03:24 AM
Mark - thanks, I never check the general forum.
913 miles and 16 hrs. If it's pushed back those two weeks, I'm there.
It could be dangerous for me to go to SZ, though...my CEG and mod addiction is pretty bad these days.
Posted By: Speed Demon_dup1 Re: How long till Spring Zing 03 ?? - 12/06/02 11:18 PM

I have a degree in nutrition...I could see severe malnutrition, but I dunno about death.
Still, Ramen shouldn't be considered "food." It's more like processed stuff that once was food.

Still, I think I can come up w/ better ways to save money for a trip to SZ. Running and cycling work up a serious appitite, so I can't deprive myself of precious nutrients that my body needs. Ok ok...I'll stop talking nutrition now.
