don't make it the 3rd or 4th weekend in August if you can help it

A good time and place for a GTG is the DHRA race at US131 MSP on Saturday July 19th

that would be a good place Mike, but logistically its too soon to plan :( Besides, I am busy that weekend :(

Would Sep be better? I would like to get as many people as possible, B-B que would be nice, we gotta outdo the CT boys!!

Nothing to plan, everyone is camping at the Schnable Lake Family Campgrounds July 18th-20th, doesn't have to be an official GTG for you all, but come on out, those that can make it, racing is open to everyone, whether you are a DHRA member or not.

Wheatland is weekend after labor day.

Hartford is 830 through PA OH, about 40 less through Canada but the border sucks. ;)

I'm serious on the roaster we'd have to figure out something on the meat though, a hog would be way too much.

Second weekend in September would work for me.

Sep 13, 2003. Mark your calanders boys! Hog roast, give aways, good food, good conversation, good company, good technician!!

I hope all can make it that are around here, I can get some camping info for those that need it. Will have some fun for sure, I am trying to get some engineering types to come but not holding breath at this point. Hopefully will have an 04 by then for a show and drive for all who are interested..
