None of us know when our time will come.. And having hung out with you guys here over the last few years.. I'm really enjoying the get togethers and getting to meet you people. Don't know we'll be making the Dragon trip again after this one.. But really glad there will be so many there that I haven't had the pleasure of meeting yet. CAA6 looks like it's shaping up to provide the same experience.. For those wondering.. Will get routes etc posted up shortly after we get back from this. Oh.. And I'm thinking Pig Trail Harley is going to have the biggest attendance to a bike night BBQ ever!!!

Mean while back on the ranch... YEEHAW.. Texas Motor Speedway this weekend!

I don't have a rear wing anymore, but I can do boot lid up. May slow the car down some, and that definitely wasn't Jim's style LOL

Jim was a great guy in so many ways.
It's good that his Crossfire friends remember him and all the good times.

Ok Duane sounds good. If you own an FRS radio, be sure to bring it with good batteries to communicate with the others.

Our cutoff date for group reservations was on August 30th
Often the lodge will still accommodate our group rate of $79 even after this date
They are not required to do this but often will since we are a large group with a long history staying with them twice each year.
They also may be fully booked for the rooms at that rate.
If you have any issues with your reservation post back here.
You can generally find someone here who will share a room and split the cost.
I have added you tho the list of attendees in post #3 of this thread

Welcome, Gary

How many cars is it looking like you will have this round?
Me and wife was trying to arrange schedule around here and have grandma and grandpa watch kids so we could go.
A water line in spare bathroom breaking and flooding both kids rooms, bathroom, hall, living room, kitchen and laundry room last wednesday changed our plans.

57 in the signup list, so should be around that number, with some having no car and some bringing 2 cars.

I have a non Crossfire Guest with a Mustang joining the group.
Should bring us to 58
MikeB 2011 Mustang vert. St Louis MO

If all these Mongrels with their Benzes, Corvettes, ricers, and rentals count, I would expect that, so should he.


Mike has done a lot of the work on My Crossies. He would own one if his three kids could fit in one.
An avid fan, and as cheap as they are becoming, I suspect he will own one eventually.
