True Joe, but you'll get there. First of all - you're not "inexperienced". Secondly; In talking w/ you at the BBQ - you had very innovative ideas re; achieving the same horsepower as David (and are acting on them) with a remaining challenge of ability to get traction. No one should expect (or...

...That's "classified"... ;-)

...That "Don Potter trade mark" almost brought out the spotter plane from the U.S. Forest Service! ;-)

Indeed, Don had his own 390 4-spd (red w/ no stripe) while here and his son Jason brought the other red 289 2v. Amber Jewell "CS BRAT" took these pictures of their arrival :-)

...'Have to agree w/ that as he's the original owner to boot. Wouldn't it have been something if John were to bring his to put alongside Bob's for photos. It was very impressive to me towards the end of the day when Bob moved his car next to Mike's and there were the two primo big block cars...

You're right Debra! It was hidden behind the bushes ;-)

Formation fly-by... ...began at 11:30 with a briefing from lead pilot Gary Rudolph who outlined the precise co-ordinances (that played to perfection an hour later) with Gary Guilliat, Steve Wilson and Bob Hobert in Gary Guilliat's hangar at the airport. Miles Bostic rode second-seat w/ Rudolph...

Still more pics... ...These are some of the preparations right after Don, Donna, Tim and Marion arrived on Friday. In addition to piloting the red 390 car to the party; Don and his son Jason were an absolute joy to have around while giving me non-stop pointers from his vast experience w/ his...

...'Careful now, that can get rather costly if Don's coming ;-))

Very neat idea Jeff! Outstanding!!

...Hear Hear! ;-)

...Seems that no matter how well you prepare or how fast you go... Someone somewhere somehow will be quicker...... ;-))

...and a few more. Enjoy!

...And some more...

A few more pics... ...but far from all :-)

...'Found a little suprise as I am putting cars away today... JOE, DONNA - I told you NOT to do that! ;-) But I will pass that on to the pilots with your (more than generous) gracious sentiments :-) I still can't get over how nice it was to meet and see so many wonderful people!!! In...

...Indeed! And many more pics to come ;-)) There is no way that the entire scope of this event will be told in two, three or even five threads. Mike and Robinette shot for the Moon and ended up on Mars!!! There was truly something for everyone (food, hospitality, scenery, celebrity...

Like the... ...Deck of an aircraft carrier before an important mission! We're ready! Destination; Assault on Chicago Park. Even the firetruck is ready (for when Donna starts her car;-)
