All right, folks, it's official:

The newly formed Ohio Grand Prix owner's Club invites everyone to come out for a car meet and greet and day of fun.

Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/events/1671336946426343/

Please RSVP via the Facebook event as soon as possible so I can get a head count.

WHO: Any W-Body or 3800 powered car. We're mostly Grand Prix's, but also welcome Regal, Bonneville, LeSabre, Monte Carlo, Impala, and anything with the 3800 in it. Got a 3800 swapped Fiero or Montana, you're welcome too. Also, feel free to bring friends too!

WHEN: Saturday, January 3, 2015, at 11:00 AM until however late we all stay.

WHAT: It's a meetup! Bring your car and be proud of owning a Grand Prix/Regal/any 3800 powered vehicle.

WHERE: We'll have the meet at Tim Horton's, 4465 Indian Ripple Road, Beavercreek OH 45440. It's right in front of the Greene. Note this has changed due to the weather forecast being rain. Clay has mentioned the possibility of having the meet on a lower level of the parking garage. If this is the case, we will post somebody at Tim Horton's to direct incoming members.

RULES: Don't be an asshole. Don't get security called by roasting the tires, racing, etc. And if there's drama between members, leave it at home... this is a friendly gathering.

DIRECTIONS: Take I-675 to the Indian Ripple/Kettering exit (exit 10). From 675 northbound, take a left off the exit ramp and the Greene is right there. From 675 southbound, take a right off the ramp.

CONTACT INFORMATION: Contact me (hensleya1) via PM here, or via text at 859-630-1708.

TENTATIVE SCHEDULE:
11:00 AM - Meet up at the top of the parking garage. Car show, and buy and sell parts.
12:30 PM - Lunch time. I am thinking BD's Mongolian Grill, which is right next to the garage. Bring about $15-20.
2:00 PM - Cruise around the Greene?
If there's still enough of us around afterwards, maybe get some dinner too.

Ask yourself the following question: What is your VISION for 2015?

Hope to see you all there!

As of 10:20 PM, we have 13 confirmed going and 11 maybe. In addition to a car show, let's have a little marketplace going. Bring any extra parts you'd like to sell.

Me, I'll be bringing the following... so if you'd like dibs on it, let me know ahead of time.
- Gen 3 blower with LIM. No play in snout. No pulley or hub on it, though.
- Gen 3 snout with good coupler
- 3.4" and 3.8" pulleys that need pressed on
- One ICM and six coils (separate from each other)
- Stock alternator
- Stock L67 fuel rail
- Two L67 throttle bodies. One is missing a MAF
- And a couple other odds and ends, I'm sure I don't have them all off the top of my head.

Make me an offer for any of them here, and I'll save them for the meet.
 
I won't be able to make this, but if there is another one a few months later and I have the Turdbo car back from TEP, i'll bring it.

Been wanting to go to a localish gathering for years :)

Tho doing cruises maybe a PITA.. only a 6 gallon fuel cell.. :th_scratchhead:

Gotta bring the station with you aka pack some fuel cans, you should check out ebay or amazon for the military style 5 gallon cans. They are skinny to save space easy to strap down and very durable. Then you can say what 6 gallon fuel cell problem?

Ya thought about that. Rolling fire hazard :)

Got some 5 gallon tanks already. Just load the trunk up.

One day, I'll probably upgrade the cell to a much bigger one or find someone who can modify the current one to double
the capacity.
 


I'll be there in the old Buick. Got the TOGs on and the catback and wheels will be on by the end of the week. She'll be looking good by then.
