Okay Missouri guys, or anyone who can make it. It is officially less than a month before the big Corvette gathering here in mid Missouri, April 10th. Weather permitting, I'm starting the "who's going" thread. I know we had a blast last year and the weather was decent. I figure I'll have a "Guru meet" prior to the show at my house and we can all drive over together. Let's get started and let me know who is interested.
I'm not sure which Corvette I have will be ready at the time, but I will manage to try and get one of them ready. http://www.corvette-guru.com/modules/ ... 0000424&caldate=2010-4-10 Curtis |

Curtis... You got me thinking -- 16 hour drive, I leave here at 2am Friday. Arrive Friday evening in MO and rest at hotel.
Wake up early Saturday wash & detail car. Go to Car Show and meet the Missouri Gurus, have fun! Party Saturday night, eat and drink.... Get some rest.Get up early Sunday drive home 16 hrs. to get in bed around midnight. Back to work Monday morning like nothing ever happened! |

Don,
We would love to see you here. If you seriously want to entertain this let me know. There's a great bunch of guys out here. I'm sure you would get the long distance award no doubt. |

Let's put it this way. I am serious enough to have did the mapping and looked at how long a drive. Considered the drive. It's definitely doable. What would make it better, is, if I could get one of the guys from my club to come with me, or pick up another Guru along the way. I will let you guys know for sure. I have been wanting to do a long distance run for a long time and had considered Effingham for FunFest, but just never had that materialize. Don't get your hopes up too much, but it is possible. Probably 50/50 at this early consideration. Maybe we can talk Andy and some of the others to come out too!!!

We'd love to have as many Gurus as can make it. The more the better it will all be, and we can have a club presence the likes of which the Mid-Mo Corvette Club will not soon forget. They tend to 'rule' things and even win all the awards too. I love to turn that in our favor even just once. With all of you there, we could either enter as a club under the name Gurus, or we can make you all members of our own clubs, the Columbia Sharks and the Columbia Wedges. |

In their favor I did see that they had separate classes for the "Host Club", so that is good. I have considered doing that at my show this year since a few people grumbled that one of our members wins the Pot Money each year. He does deserve it, but its still a club member.
I just mentioned this to my wife and she rolled her eyes, and said Missouri is long drive!! She was thinking "Like Yeah Right! Your not going" LOL There's always hope! |

Andy, That would be great. I told Ryan if he tags along with you he is welcome to take the C4 as I know how excited he would be to do so. It's not running the best, but in the short distance it will make it. I hope to dig into the C4 once I get the C3 taken care of. Once the show gets closer, and we see what the weather will, I'll give you directions to my house so we can meet up before the show. I can't wait to see your SLP set-up either! |

The SLP isn't anything big, it just looks much better than that cut up air box.

USPS has sent my interior components to Denver when they were supposed to be deliverd to Florida. Its been ten days and all they can tell me is that they left Denver three days ago. That's the last time I do a stupid thing to save a few bucks. I sent them parcel post to save $15 So.... my point is that I probably won't be makin' it to MO, but I'll have to try to make the summer show later. |

My interior parts have traveled across the entire USA and arrived at thier final destination on Tuesday. Pat sent me an email and said he would have them done by late next week, but that still won't give me time to receive them and get to MO. I really plan to come check you guys out some time soon!
We will try for your late summer show or another big one. Maybe we can plan this well in advance and get some more Gurus to make the road trip or air trip if necessary. I always wanted to go to Fun Fest at Mid-America too! |
