Car show proposal, Ver. 1.0

[Toolman]

PrplSHO:
I need to talk with SASCA and the guys over at another board to gather further interest before I can look at setting dates.

2) I need some concrete commitments. People who without a doubt will do this.

Shall we begin?

Sorry, but I can not make any commitment until I know a date. I would hate to agree to go and have you count me in and then find out I can not go because of a conflict. Just be sure to NOT plan it on May 16,17 or mid July and I 'should' be able to come down.

This can happen pretty much whenever YOU guys want it to,

I went down to the autocross meet today and I'm HOOKED!

I plan on joining up / running next meeting, which is the 23rd of Feb. $15.00 per year to join and $15.00 per autocross is an awesome deal.

As soon as I get to know some of these guys I'll be talking to them about the Ranch show. I saw about 60-80 cars there, with the ranch being so close I can't think of a cooler day than some good racing and a good 'ol BBQ right after only minutes away.

I am going to the SVT club of North Texas this Saturday to meet those guys, along with talking about the SHO run I will talk to them about the car show. They are sponcered by the same dealership the LS club is here in Dallas. Their web site is svttexas.com

Cool!

I'm trying to set up a San Antonio SVT Chapter but the only SVT dealership here sucks ass.

There is another dealership here that will be selling them soon. I'll wait for them to begin SVT sales and then ask to have them sponsor it.

I'll be bringing some Ranch information with me to the winter run ( yes.. I'm coming.. someone send me a fargin' map, puhleaze... ) and I don't hope to bore everyone. Maybe if you all see it in print and pictures it might make more sense.

This could be great, I've been on the SVT message forum and I kinda let it slip that Tonys SHO could spank most of their *****, so some of the members suggested we put together a SVT vs SHO race day. Now all we have to do is get the dealership here to get involved, maybe they have a dealership down there or in Austin they are affiliated with.

uh oh...

LOL.

The only dealership here is Northside Ford, and they SUCK!

The track does this car club shootout on Sundays that would be perfect for this.

At the least autocross and drag race I went to I saw this sonic blue '03 Cobra converytible with a nice young lady driving. She pulled a 12.74 witht he Cobra but sucked on the autocross course. Nonetheless, those Cobras are FAST.

Jordan Ford is now a SVT dealer also... and since they just got the rights to sell SVTs they may be willing to help out just to get there name out there!

I went to the SVT club meeting this morning, man are those guys organized, they have a monthly calendar with club events set for the whole year, they have organized drag racing events and some road course events. One of the road course events they get the state DPS to close down a highway for the event. I think thay said it was out of Fredericksburg.

Also things looks good for the car show in San Antonio at the ranch. They were planing to take a road trip out of town the last weekend in March, but it was still open to where to go.

The event cordinator said you can send him any info you have to him either through their web site or mail it to him, to email its [email protected]
to mail Attention Dennis at SVT club of North Texas P.O.Box 1329 Frisco,Tx 75034 to call 469-853-2798
That's Dennis Pedini (I think thats the last name can't read his writing) They have March 28,29,30 open or the weekend after Mothers Day in May.

I'll go for sure. Get a date so I can be sure it's possible, but I will definately show up. I think there's a SHO club in Dallas. Hopefully they'll be caravaning out there. This event sounds like fun.

Nice to have you aboard. The run date is Feb. the 8th. Was thinging to have the DFW guys to meet up at Ridgmar Mall in Ft.Worth off I-30 and Green Oaks Rd. Probably meet around 9:30 in the AM, and it would be a good place to take pics of all the SHOs. Me and Dennis from the LS club are going out this morning we'r hooking up at 10:00 at that mall. Sure wish I knew someone from Weatherford that could tell us a good restaurant to go to after the run. shrug

Interesting.. So Jordan is doing Roush AND SVT? That's cool....I will go and talk to them, in fact, the owners of the ranch are good friends with the owners of Jordan Ford.

Dflatd,

Thank you man.. That's awesome! I really appreciate you talking to them about this, I will be contacting him shortly, I know this show could be huge if we get everyone involved!

I am sorry for mixing up this thread with the Winter run thread. The message to SHOneedaJOB, was up late. I have been driving all day with Dennis the LS guy mapping the winter run. Maps should be ready soon. Dennis said it looks like we're going to have a blast. thumbs_u

Damen,

So what's the status on the car show at the ranch?
Have you heard anything from the SVT club?

 

[dlfatd]

Damen,

I updated my profile and now this forum is not putting my signature at the end of my posts. The previous post was from me. Let's see if it happens again.

Don,

I think my e mail must have bugged up again, I did send off a letter but I nevber heard anything back.

I am going to re-send it later on today.

Will any of these guys be going to the winter run?

 

[dlfatd]

Damen,

My email is [email protected] send it to me and I will make damn sure they get it. I'm heading out right now for the Lincoln LS club meeting and I know at least 2 of them are also members of the SVT club. So this morning I will get some phone numbers so I can find out what's going on.

Spoke to the guy's in the LSs club about the Car Show and race day, they liked the idea (road trip)!!!
The Dallas area LS club is sponsored by the same dealership that the SVT club is. They are just a little more organized than the SHO club so they are open more to just running ideas to the members. Today they had 8 to show up. Victor the moderator, gave me the guys name that started the sponsorship of the SVT and Lincoln clubs so I'm going to try talk him some time next week (he's out of town at the moment). My plan is to promote the Ford Performance week or weekend, if I can sell it to this guy it will happen.
