We are hoping to make it, but not sure if we will. April will pretty much be the last month I have employment and I'm uncertain what all will be going on at that point. However, so long as I don't have to go in that weekend, we should be there.

we're planning on going but won't have anything to show, the buggy won't be done, not sure when we are going to get taxes back, having issues getting Rose's new ss# (2nd attempt, and nothing yet 3 weeks later) so we've yet to file taxes which will fund completion of said buggy.

Understood sir. Sucks to hear about the problems. We should be up there early'ish Friday. Not sure we are showing this year either, I think we are just going up so see everyone & hang out. We'll try to get the good camping spot back over by the tree

As it stands now, Cristine and I will be there. However, the cabby will not be making the trip this year. Since we haven't had the ability to fix some things on her, we don't want to chance the trip. So instead, we will be bringing the MKIV's so that we can bring all of the camping gear to start our lil community campsite. We should be up there very early Friday so we can get a good spot.

Sorry to hear about Crabby.
If terri and I get there early enough we may stop by on Friday night.
But we are debating Friday/Saturday or just come up on Sat.
Don't know yet

My car is giving me greif with my fuel pump issues but I am still going to try to make it with my Cabby. My wife and 3 year old have fun polishing the car with me. One ? I have is if their is big truck parking on site. I have a friend who might be able to come to the show but needs to park his truck.

Yes there are large parking lots next to the event and next to the camping area.

We're only going to be coming for Saturday. Hope to get there early, and then leave after dinner in the evening... I was thinking maybe Mellow Mushroom in Chattanooga?
Too many factors against staying the whole weekend... largest of which is that tax $ not in yet, so we haven't been able to get the trailer hitch & hitch basket and roof basket to carry all our crap in. Last year we had the 3rd seat stowed and the whole back of the pilot was filled up. This year we have Molly plus a 15 year old (friend's daughter) who wanted to go, so there will be no way we could take the stuff, as there is almost no cargo room with the 3rd seat in use.
I'd bring my Jetta but it's not so pretty as it once was (headliner coming down again too...) plus, it left me stranded on friday due to a bad hall sender in the distributor, and the week before due to the ignition switch crapping out. Luckily we have roadside on the phones and still have tow more $50 tows until it renews in Oct. Considering it has now 305k on it... I'd rather not get it so far from home.

Nick, sounds like you will have your hands full. I'll just be happy to see you guy's. Eric - GL on the fuel pumps, I've had my fair share of fun with those, thats for sure. Just a few more days and everyone can make fun of me for showing up to the show without a single A1 car. I expect some ridicule for this.
