Cool ... thanks!

I thought I'd have the details worked out by now, but I don't. Hope to have them by the end of March. When I do, I'll start a new topic/thread with all of the details. As of now, ~40 people from ~15 different groups/boards have indicated an interest in the gathering....

Hey all I know it's kinda far out but a group of us are cruising to the dells over the weekend of the 22nd for Automotion. It's a huge car show/swap meet at the dells: http://wisdells.com/wisconsindellsat...automotion.cfm

I just booked my room and it was only about 54 bucks at the Super 8 which is really nice (even though it sounds crappy).
