Another thanks to all the cooks in the meet kitchen, & to whomever ordered up the weather.

I'm sure everyone who participated will agree that your effort in the rally was well worth our entertainment.

And just so you know Ben, your baby got me home without incident around 4:00 today. The tranny in that car is a ROCK, best shifting one I've ever felt. I'll take good care of it for you and maybe even check out a few other things on it for you.
No problem man and actually my wife wasn't too upset when I told her my SVX was vacationing in RI. Just send me a PM of your plans when you come up with 'em. I'll do my best to meet ya up at Jimsbaby's place to help ya get her loaded up and such. If it is this weekend Saturday is definately the best as Sunday Dave and I will be autoxing again. Hopefully, this time we'll have it totally sorted enough to make all of our runs. If it would be Sunday, late afternoon, early evening is definately the best.

Like I said though, keep it as long as you need too. The key is keeping the better half happy right!!! As for the tranny, I hope you didn't jinx it! nearly 50k on it and 15 or so fluid changes later she seems as good as the day I got it back from getting rebuilt at the Cumberland Valley Motors. I know your a busy man. The bearings really don't bug me too much as she only gets out a few times a year anyways but if you're bored .

We want to give a shout out to all the planners of Reading6 and say a GREAT time was had by Mrs.Rotorflyr, BabyRotorflyr and myself
We will be back next year for sure!!

The weather was perfect, the people great and it was nice to put faces to the names. The low point of the entire event was Jessies motor going BOOM, but even that didn't put much of a damper of the event as people pulled together to give em' a hand sorting out how to handle it.

The rally was fun, great scenery, fun roads, perfect weather, and some interesting questions! Whoever takes over that portion of the meet next year has his/her hands full for sure.

Pictures will be posted at some point (quicker if the lockers reappear).

To all the planners THANKS AGAIN FOR ALL THE HARD WORK!
GREAT JOB GUYS!


Special Thanks to Hocrest and his sister for setting up such a wonderful dinner!

I would love to, but I only get Sundays off .
It sounds like a GREAT time though!
Take lots of pictures!










With my schedule, I can only make Hagerstown, maybe Pgh, or Winchester VA.

Okay, good, I was gonna say that would be one heck of a commute! Probably 2 hours a day almost for ya. Don't forget to give me a shout about one of those exhaust's you'd be willing to part with. I'd be nice to get something on there soon. If not we'll have to get those blasted doughnuts on this one as it leaks like a VW Beetle leaks oil!
