All,

It's time to start planning for our annual Tech Day and next year's schedule. Traditionally we have had Tech Day on the MLK holiday weekend, which would be 1/19/08 this year. So far Mark has expressed some interest in getting his SM420 installed. Anyone else have any mods that need to be done? Carl is also talking about bending up some tube fenders for those that need them so everyone can see how it's done. If the tube fenders happen, than I may be up for flipping my front springs but I can wait if someone else has something to do.

We also need to pull out our calendars and look at what we want to do next year. There's also elections that need to be held. Carl has again graciously offered his shop for the day, and we have some money in the bank for some food and potentially door prizes. TLCA and HC dues are also due at the meeting so that we are all current. Post up your thoughts, and we can get the year started off right!

Count me in!!
I sent Carl an email right after TFT's regarding some tree protection (Badlands/Orange), so happens that part of this is fender protection, so it would be cool to see his tube bending skills.
 
19th's good for me.

I'd like to tear into m rear locker on the 80, but I'd rather see a set of tube bumpers happen since Mike, er, uh, um, redesigned mine in Tellico!:D

Oh and while you guys are at it go ahead and wrap up the SOA and SM420 on my 40, and PM the head gasket and PHH on the 80. Give me a jingle when you're finished!:D

Actually, don't rely on me for tech day projects since I may have to bail if it snows.

The 5th and the 12th are my only Saturdays off in January. The 6th is my only Sunday off. I don't think I will have any money to get the projects I need to do. I would be more than willing to get dirty and drink some beer.

Later,

I work every Saturday. But I will come by after work if it is still going on. I will probably have no project to do, but I love to wrench. I would like to set some plans in motion for events in 08'. I have to ask for days off way in advance, so that will help me be able to attend more Saturday events. I will see ya all on the 19th (I think). :D

I've marked the calender!

As long as the tubing bender will be out I would like to make a roll bar and rails for my bed if there is time. I have some left over tubing from the race car but no way to bend it right now.

I take it that's the Cliffs event. I will be there. I am getting Lockers and Gears at tech day. I can't wait for another trip to the Cliffs with my new upgrades. Heck, I can't wait to wheel anywhere with my new upgrades. Count me in! :D Tony.
 
By the way 4rnr. Thanks for the early info. Just about guarantees me the time off. I'll put in my request tomorrow.!.

No problem.

This years event will be bigger and better.
 
Yes the parts for the SM420 swap are ordered, they should be in this week. I will get some of the preliminary stuff out of the way so we can make the switch much easier. The only thing I havent addressed is the transfer linkage, but Carl said he could make it on the spot.

I also want a set of tube fenders to replace my stock ones, My driving by the brail method has taken its toll on them.

Weather permiting I will try to clean out the garage and be bringing parts I no longer need with me. This will be a first come first served deal, the price is free unless you feel you have to pay something for them, then its up to you. I have fr.drum knuckles and brakes, rear 76 drum brakes, and some elec. parts. I also have a 74 stock roll bar and fr. seats, but post up if interested in these and I'll bring them up, but hate to load them up if no one is interested.

See ya there
Mark

Hey Carl, a couple questions:
Head count of one here!!
Right after TFT's I sent you an email with marked up pics of some tube protection I wanted for my 62, which included the fenders. Would this be part of tech day or would it be another day since it isn't a 40? If it won't fit in No big deal. If it fits into tech day then definately count me in for the materials. Either way, you can definately write up an order for me to be paid on tech day!!
I would be glad to bring a side dish and drinks to compliment the grub. I assume that would be in order?
Start time?
The location is the same as on your website, 8475N 700E Indy?
