Update ---The meet will officially begin at 2:30 PM and continue until everybody goes home on Sunday, April 24th. We will meet at the South Overlook just South of the Red Rock dam near Knoxville.

People most likely going so far: Eric, EricW1, Kev, ltspeed, Quasimo1, Race, Salvaged, and tstroud. There is another Kevin, (not a member of this forum), that I have invited who may bring two cars. I still need to talk to another guy who has several Fieros in storage who may be interested.

I would like to incorporate a drive into this meet this time. Matt, (Salvaged) has informed me that there are some interesting roads to drive on around the lake but they are patrolled regularly so it will not be a speed competition.

We will be making a video of the meet this time. After editing the tape, I plan on sending a CD copy to all who attend or post it on-line so everyone can see it instantly. Either way it will be a fun thing to have around.

If you can attend please check in here in this thread. If it is anything like last year's meet it promises to be a good time.

Race,

I drive by the greenway road coarse everyday going back and forth to work. There was one time last year where they let an MGB club come in and drive a few laps. Bad thing is, there is probably more grass growing up through the cracks in the pavement than there is pavement. A heavy equipment operational school owns the property now. They actually take better care of it than the previous owners did. The MGB club got to use it for a day because several of the members used to race at the track back when it was open, late sixties-early seventies I think. This track is only 18 miles north of me. I could actually maybe even come.

Count me in!

If it is not in drivable condition maybe we should just do the Red Rock venue.

I would love it if you could attend, the more the better. I will be inviting a friend who has 5 Fieros but is not a part of the forum. He will probably bring his 87 GT 5-speed.

count me in also..i should have the car ready..if not i'll be showing up in GTO...

------------------

I won't know for sure, one way or the other, until it gets closer, but put me in the "interested" list.

I would bet that I can talk my future brother-in-law (Trevors87GT) into going as well...

Like Musicman, put me in the interested class as I think you guys have a knack for scheduling these on my weekends to work, but I won't be positive till this weekend at the earliest. If possible I will be there though.

I'd love to come, but unfortunately for me, I usually work Saturdays. If you end up doing it on the rain date instead, I might be able to come. Would like to meet some of you...others (KEV, Musicman, DanFiero), I already know..

This sounds like fun................but if I don't get a job or something soon I'll be selling a Fiero

I'll be there.

Like Litespd I usually work on Satudays , but if I CAN......... YES!

If more people need Sundays maybe we should look at that. Sunday would actually be better for me, I should to work until 2:00 PM on Saturday but I could get out of it.

If more people can show up on Sunday we could change it.

If you can attend on either day or only one please reply with your response.

-Either for me.

Either day works for me. I'd better hurry & find that oil leak...

You are actually bringing a Fiero to the meet this time?

Matt, you have a pm.

It is starting to look like Sunday will be the best day for the meet. SaLvAgEd is checking the area for the best location and we should have the spot nailed down in the next couple of days. We are also looking for a covered area to be an alternate location if it happens to rain that day.

I may not be back on line much for the next two days, but I will check in as often as possible.

I used to spend many-a-summer weekend nights at the South Overlook near the dam. That would definately bring back some memories. This spot has a couple of nice covered shelters, too.

That's one spot that I have in mind. That would be a great spot. So RACE, looks like 2 votes for south of the dam.

Sounds good, I will probably be able to come. I am fairly new to Fiero's and could use some new ideas.

Hey man! Welcome to the madness! What model of Fiero will you be driving?

Welcome to our obsession.

If nobody has any objections Sunday will officially be the day. The final location and rain location will be announced in the next couple of day.

Have a good weekend.

The location will be near the South end of the dam. Matt says that there are a couple of places that would be good. Lets plan on the area called the South Overlook. If we need to move due to the amount of parking available we will relocate to a nearby lot that would be easily found.

Race, I should be able to make the meet, depending on the weather. Count me as a "probable"... Placing this in my "personal favorites", so I don't forget about it.

Well, my shcedule came out and of course it's one of the 2 weekends I work in the six week cycle, so I'll have to miss another one Some day my weekends off and your meets will coincide. Have a great time everyone!!

Dan

Just to let you guys know, I'm working on the cars so that they can't be used as an excuse for not coming to the lake.

Believe it or not, the only thing that could keep me from coming is good weather. A nice sunny day will mean that we will be very busy at our place of business, making it impossible to get away.

and......a bump to the top

LAMBO, you have a PM.

Bump for Eric. Nice talking to you today.

quote Originally posted by RACE: Bump for Eric. Nice talking to you today.

Hey Race, nice talking to you too , you couldnt have come at a better time, while I was working on a Fiero ..LOL. As always your car looks great ..I'm jealous

Shamless bump.

The meet is two weeks from Sunday. If you haven't already, dig your car out and get it ready. We would love to see you there.

One week until the meet. I will bump this again next Saturday.

I sure hope the body shop comes through, it has been there for a week and a half. I told him I needed it back for the meet on the 24th. Otherwise I will have to bring the $20.00 special fiero (shivver). I took saturday off for last minute reassembly. (fingers crossed)

I hope so too. I'm still waiting for my ride.

I just went to the body shop and the car is not going to be done.
I guess I will bring the $20.00 special.

Man, just found out there is a chance I could get part of tomorrow off from work, but I'd need to be back by 3:00.

Oh well, have fun!!!!! Get lots of pictures,

Dan

Sunday forcast: Sunny. High in the upper 50s. Northwest wind 10 to 15 mph. No rain.

There will be plenty of photos I will also be making a video and publishing it at my sitesled account.

I can't get there before 2:30 but if others wanted to show up early that is ok.

Race, I've had some things come up, and I won't be able to make it tomorrow. I'm sorry...I was looking forward to meeting all of you. If you guys decide to do something later this Spring or Summer, please let me know...I'd like to attend.

Well our second Central Iowa Fiero Meet has ended. I will leave it up to Race to post the good pictures Here is a preliminary photo of the Central Iowa Fiero Meet

Anyway, it was fun and not a bad day weather wise.

Cool, My car does not look too bad from that angle.
It was good to see you guys again and to meet the new guys too.
