Much needed GTG.

What are everyone's plans for the near future. I know the only weekend coming up I'll be camping and playing at the dunes. So maybe shortly after Memeorial weekend in June?

What's everyone's thoughts? Place, to be centrally located again.

Lets hear some ideas

I've got some repairs to take care of before I can commit to a GTG. Next week I'm working in Saginaw and the following week too. After that things should slow down enough for me.

June looks good for me. First three weekends are open then will be at silver lake. I'm open to most anywhere in the l.p.. Way to late to do any thinking about where.....

It's actually looking like June 9th would be a good day. Following week, Is Father's Day.

Sunday is a better day for me with having to work Saturdays.

What does everyone think about Fitzgerald Park by Lansing again? Kind of in the middle?

Torr, what kind of repairs are you in need to make it?? You dont need to drive the truck either..That is the cool thing about this, its about the GTG,

Fitzgerald park is fantastic, although, alittle difficult for a working gtg??

I think the only place we could do a working gig would be Elwood's. I can't volunteer it. It's about 45 minutes west of grand ledge also. Little further for you guys, Al, Chad, Mil, Mark, Jimmy, etc

I have no issues going to GR area, I'm on the west side of the metro area, be there in hour and half. And since my truck still has something they call a warranty, I'll just man the grill and provide supervision.

I'm preparing for studs, head gaskets, standpipes, dummy plugs, radiator, ICP, IPR, metal CAC tube, turbo cleaning and who knows what I forgot? Oh yeah, oil cooler and egr delete.

That's okay Rich. I have a buddy who is going to do it all for a grand. He is the 6.0 tech at the dealer.
