View attachment 731683 If this is a contest, I win the goofy/ugly mug shot by a mile. Will be good to see your BIL.

That looks like a mugshot from a RICCO bust. Of course mine is nothing to brag about either.

Disregard the Supercar question. It has moved. But it is still an easy drive from the park or the AirTel on Sunday morning with plenty of time to get to the park before 10. It’s actually 6201.

 

[Derwud]

Sorry, didn't see this sooner. yes moved.. Have not been to the new spot yet..

 

[Paul_G]

I plan to go, riding with a friend if he goes. He has a freshly restored 71 Chally RT he wants to bring, trailered of course.

Dangit, gonna miss it. I wanted to meet all the guys from norcal, but committed to bowling sweeps in vegas.
Last year the sweeps in Vegas was same weekend as mopars at the strip, so i got to do spring fling, bowling and the Vegas race, spectator only though.

Tick, tock....getting closer!
I'm not sure what I'll be driving.
2014 : 70 Charger.
2015, 2016, 2017, 2018....The Wife's car, 2015 Challenger R/T.
This show always sneaks up on me. Unlike DENNIS, I don't drive my Charger often enough to shake out any small issues before the Spring! Rear tire rubs the outer wheelhouse on the right rear but usually only with a full tank and other people in the car. I have some shorter tires to install but I have yet to get to that!

Going from 275/60's to 295/50's?

Green hills...absolutely. It sure makes the road trips more scenic. The section of I-5 or 99 between Fresno and the LA valley sure is nicer in the Spring than the fall.
I"m happy as always to go to this shindig. It is good to catch up with the regulars there. It will be good to see how the changes to Dennis' car have worked out.
Uncle Fuzzy and I will be there..

Damn Kern, did you tie one on? Your buddy in the background, did he lose a wrench or something?

 

[Kern Dog]

Ha ha...
I have not been drunk in a couple of years! Uncle Fuzzy in the background....Looking for his wallet I guess!

Regarding tire rub: I have a 295-45-18 out back. They are a little over 28" tall. I first went with this size when I ordered these wheels in 2003. Over time I have come to think that they have too tall of a sidewall for me. To get adequate tire clearance, I'd have to raise the back up a bit and I'm not interested in that look. I have a pair of 26" tall 285-35-18s in the same brand tire. I wanted to film some burnouts using the old tires before swapping the new ones on. This job and long commute have taken so much of my free time though. I leave the house at 4:00 AM and am often home no earlier than 5:00 PM. It sucks!

It would be nice to meet some members while at Spring Fling. I cant walk very far at one time, so I will be sitting by my friend Mikes 71 Chally R/T, blue, most of the time. Stop by and say hi if you can.
