Last year we had 50 cars at the Moose Preserve restaurant out on N. Woodward on Wednesday evening. It was awesome.

Don`t know if there will be any Saturday get togethers, but the Wed event is worth the trip!

Are you in Windsor? There are usually 4 or 5 of us that go over on the Wed night. If you're interested, let me know, and I'll see if were all going this year.

Dave, we (Michigan Buick Turbo Club) are in contact with the Moose Preserve to see if we can use their lot again. I will check with the club secretary and see if any plans have been made.

Chris, would be cool if you could make it down. :-)

Tim, I don't see why not :-)

I have actually never made it to one of these gatherings so I am definitely not the best spokesperson, I am just in the loop with the Moose Preserve as far as securing a spot to park.

I'll be at the Wednesday event filming ya'll pulling out onto Woodward, so be sure to smile for the camera! And make sure your car does "something" too (I won't say what) when you pull out! As if you guys don't do it already anyways......

I'll be there. this will be my 3rd time, and it's always a great time. tons of REALLY smart people there. I learn soo much every time i go. the place is I believe on the ne corner of W square lake road (19 mile road) and woodward. There was nothing but rows of turbo buicks there, and I almost fainted when I pulled up. I thought I died and went to heaven.

Me and the girlfriend want to go down on friday, but we are up in the air on weather we will be able to find a room somewhere for the night.
Race?? I don't think my car is in top tune YET. A few minor setbacks, three tries to fix a leaking oil pump, 2nd NEW hydroboost units in one week.
I was out trying to tune it by my self last night. I made a couble of hard runs while trying to record them with t-link, and the harness unhooked on both runs leaving me with no info. and I don/t know anyone around here to help me tune it.
I thought I broke it last night !!! Turns out I must have melted my newly run vac lines on the firewall.
I'll keep an eye out for you folks. I'll be in a 84 with the cracked front fillers!!
(thanks to some old gawker in a suburban---I found them when I got home.
Marty
