Got the hotel Reservations taken care of. Printing off the reg form. Now I have to work on car so it will make it (maybe). So put us down for 1 Fiero 6 people (my wife is Hispanic so we know how to get that many in a Fiero. If it was a CHEVY we could bring more). Seriously 1 Fiero, 2 people. Need an extra shirt. Will mail info.

So Robert you are going to be finished in time? Right now I am clonning the cradle that I bought from you so I can start work on my 6 spd Shelby S1 as well the Auto Shelby. At the rate that things are moving I will be finished with the Auto Shelby by the round up.
Yeah Baby Yeah!!!

Great News, looks like a great turn out of old friends and some new ones as well. Extra t-shirts are on the REGRISTRATION FORM, including needed sizes. Anderson's cruises are allways fun, he like the back winding roads of the Hill Country. Looking foward to seeing and visiting with you all.

Does anyone besides me feel silly about going to a Fiero event without a Fiero? I know everyone says just show up to meet - greet - and - eat but it feels awfully silly to me cruising in a Fiero line and you're driving a 98 Dodge truck. I usually don’t mind too much being the odd man out, but I can’t get over the "my Fiero couldn’t make it but I am here" feeling.
Is that wierd in a "you complete me" Jerry Maguire way ? ? ?

LMAO at the Jerry Maguire comment. I don't feel bad at all. I really like to see the Fiero's and I truley want to bring mine but in all honesty I also want to meet the people I talk to alot on here. They are friends and family to me and thats what matters isn't it? I will be taking lots of video footage of my Fiero's before I leave and showing that off. Besides I can't fit all the stuff I am bringing down in a Fiero..you know little things like...my wife's luggage and the fFiero stuff LOL. Come out..enjoy the fun friends and food and don't let a little thing like a broke Fiero rain on the parade. Look forward to meeting you there

I am trying to get my wife to buy off on Sea World, and go to the Fiero Event, as a while we are there thing. I don't trust driving my Fiero, even though it has not let me down... yet. I have only driven it about 50 miles in 2 years. It runs and drives pretty good but has a attitude. Strange things seem to happen randomly, like it is having a bad day(Brakes, Alternator, Oil Sending unit). I will wait until you get a hold of it and do your magic. I love my Fiero but she makes me nervous.

ahhh... bring it. if something does happen look how many fiero experts will be there. you trailer it down there in case something bad does happen still have a way to get it home.
i need to check to see how many miles it is to there and see if it falls within my AAA towing.
blake is planning the trip, i think he said we would be traveling down 281. we'll probably start out at blake house, take 377 to stephenville. hopefully he'll chime in with our iteneary.
OK just give us a time if you go 281 will be better for us to meet you in Hico or if you leave from blake’s you might come through Glen Rose ? If yall want every one can meet here if that is the case. I just hope I get my AC fixed this weekend.

May be bringing the "big" Fiero (Grand Prix) in order to haul the camping gear. Going down a few days early to enjoy a vacation. Trying to pack everything first to see if it all will fit. Will be mailing form. Sorry forgot. Look forward to meeting you all. Steve

Glad I only have to drive across town for this event…will see if I dare to drive way out of town for other events in the future. Probably trailer it that way I know I can make it home any who I hope most of you decide to bring your Fiero as I am really looking forward to see as many as possible here in San Antonio.

If I can drive all the way from Houston to Detroit and back with 3 bad ball-joints (all on the same side) and loose inner tie rods, you can make it to San Antonio.

I don't know what they taught you in the Air Force, but in the Marines we were taught something called "Mission Accomplishment." Then again there was that "troop wellfare" thing...

Well yeah we believe in mission accomplisment but if the plane is still flying and you have a parachute you can jump out...but it's not recomended aka "Troop welfare" LOL. Of course you guys (Marines)love jumping from moving aircraft so I can't fault ya on it
Jarhead you going down or is the flight going to take you away at that time? Hope you are there man. I am always ready to meet a fellow service member.

i was suppose to research this but i've decided to ask instead. does SATX have a Drive-In theater? the reason i ask, NTFC is known for our movie nights and we haven't had one in a while. so i think we would like to have a movie night in good ol SATX during the Round-Up, probably Friday night. the movie of choice is Fast & Furious cause we're all about the car movies. let me know what's available.
Mission 4 drive-in is now closed down...it was the last one here...the nearest one is in Shiner 80 miles east see link: http://www.crossroadsdrivein.com
