do I need to plan for some side adventures for the DFW folks?
Should you even have to ask that question? Of course we are going to need some side adventures for the way back on Sunday. Going to be hard to top the trip back from SA but sure we can come close. For those DFW members who didnt come back with us on our adventure from SA, you missed out. I am sure this trip back will be just as fun if not better so everyone plan on making the adventure trip back on Sunday.
Ever notice how Mike (Darkwing) always adds lots of posts promoting events like this? Especially for AAFO members? Notice how there are comparatively fewer posts this time around?
..... I think he must have some new undies he hopes to show off!!!

Do not count the AAFO out this early. I know the ones who have registered are doing all they can to get the others signed. For some reason everyone wants to see Blake in his underwear instead of me. Even Sharon, my wife, that's strange???????????????????????
I am on my way to Wal-Mart to look at some spiffy boxers, just in case.
If there is a way to be in Austin for the Ruckus-4, be there. You don't need a car to have a good time, catch a ride, come and I promise you will not regret the memories. Well maybe the carwash, you might regreat that memory.

Keep in mind; this year the Ruckus is also a charity benefit. The charity is “Austin Smiles” that provides surgeries to children with serious birth defects that, if not life threatening, is certainly quality and quantity of life limiting. There is certainly a lot of need to go around right now, but that does not diminish the need of these children. You can feel good about this Ruckus. We certainly expect to have a lot of fun, but we also expect to do a lot of good.

I see the empty space following your question mark. Did you loose your train of thought there good buddy? Or maybe your just lost in space or something. Of all the things I have lost, I miss my mind the most!

I just might make it. I just got a new boss and he is not cutting it. His first "boss" job. If I can not train him that I do my job my way I am gonna trade him in for another one. I am pretty good at making a boss see things my way so don't count me in just yet. Either way, I am gonna want a T shirt. I did not realize the deadline and have been gone a week. skyketch2, I will have a check in tomorrow's mail for the registration, on my word. Please include me in for all the goodies for preregistration. I will PM you and also call you. After I review the thread for mailing info.

27 Fieros and 46 people? This could make for one of those situations when you go into a parking lot and aren't sure which car is yours. If only we drove Lexus' we could personalize our seats to know our butts and differentiate that way. Or whatever the point of that commercial is.
It's going to cool off by then, right? As it is GT won't be finished in time, but hopefully it won't be a trip where I regret not having air conditioning. Maybe if the NTFC wins Blake will trade cars with me temporarily, you know, just so his doesn't get scratched being washed... Or maybe not.

Now you are counting the AAFO as out of this thing.
I have heard from 4 AAFOers today alone. It is not about cars, so we count heads, ie. Jennifer & "WORKING IN THE CAR WASH", Blake count as two. One or both have to be a member of NTFC. Sharon & I count as two for AAFO. If someone from either club shows without their Fiero they still count.
Blake, you are sure quite, better get your under-duds and some super suds...AAFO is heating up. All the chocolate cookies in the world will not get you out of this mess!
Stay out of it KEVIN, I know you like Blake better.
Mike Parker DARKWING The soon to be "CLEAN MACHINE"
I wasn't necessarily saying yall would lose... just that I want to drive Blake's A/C equipped car, and thought I might trick him into it... IF you lost. I say we count cars, unless only paying members of the AAFO count, otherwise you could just round up a busload of homeless people and have them pretend to be members. And we can only bring so many with us...
So how exactly is membership defined as far as this contest goes?

I say we draw a line. AAFO on this side and the losers on the other side. j/k WBaily1041 is down here from Chicago and is not a registered AAFO member yet. But he will be. We claim him as ours, even though he does have Illinoise tags. Side note......... He made the trip in his beautiful 84 in a little over twenty four hours. I am proud of his Fiero.

Ill be there. I just moved to TX, (Thanks CliffW) Ill be joining Alamo Area Fiero Owners Group SOON. FIRST FIERO SHOW FOR ME!!!!!!!!!!
I'll update with the move details when I get a chance.
Welcome to Texas. That was a confusing post when I 1st read it, as I knew Cliff has been here forever, but I remembered Cliff had mentioned he was talking to another PFFer about coming down to God's Country. You picked a good one to make your first show.

This was WBailey1041's post. I logged off and saw him log in. What happened ?

I 'think', two of the things that identifies a specific user is the IP, and the cookies. You may have to delete your cookies in preferences in order for 2 of you to use the same computer.

Ok, count only the dues paying members of each club, geeeeeeeeeeee. However, they do not have to have their Fiero with them. It is still about the people, except for Kevin. If they are a PAYING member of the club they count.
Thanks for making this so easy. I have a brand new set of undies, too bad you will never see them! They may have pumpkins on them, or flames, or something! Oops, now they have pizza on them.
Hmmmm. Look what I miss for being busy. Early registration. Oh well. I may be able to come as well. I would finally like to come to one of these things now that I'm not working weekends anymore. Things are getting busy now though because I'm engaged. Something about she wants to see me bla bla bla....Just kidding. As long as I can keep both Fieros I'm fine.
Let me check out some things and I'll see if I can bring my dual color clear coat flakin' alignment needin' 3.4L.
Somehow that just doesn't have the same ring as "My four speed dual quad posi-traction 409".......

With the threat of evacuating Houston, any chance of moving the Ruckus to this weekend? I might be headed west by Thursday if the predictions for TS/Hurricane Rita hold up.
