ChevyGuyNC · « **on:** April 27, 2009, 09:30:04 PM »

The next great NC GTG will be at our home in Mooresville NC, Race City USA!

Come help us celebrate our first anniversary here in NC, the Summer Solstice, and welcome our beautiful daughter Katie to NC.

The fun will start with the early arrivals on Friday, June 19th and run through sometime Sunday the 21st.

We?ve got room for quite a few folks; one bedroom, a couch, and room for several air mattresses, so reserve your space now!

There are also a bunch of hotels within 5 minutes. If needed, I can look into getting a group rate.

Our complex has a pool and a free covered car wash available too!

LIGHT Modding is possible, but please bring your own tools, my garage is not stocked like JohnB?s. (Is anyone?s?)

Possible activities include cruises to some local race shops such as JR Motorsports, Penske Racing and the Memory Lane Museum

Menu info HERE (Yes, there WILL be Chicken Parm! :D)

I can do 860 miles in 2 hrs. You seen the flux capacitor my AV has?

Ive been working out of town lately and now they extended my stay to 6-7 more weeks. I hope my employers dont ruin my summer this year. There are several trips that we like to take. San Antonio Nationals is looking strong as were attending a wedding during that time as well.
