    In case you have not been reading your newsletter or emails, this Saturday is the Goodman, McBride, and Cotter garage tours I have arranged. Should be a wonderful time. 10am to 1pm, with lunch after at Chinooks restaurant. Driving instructions are in the Feb newsletter, just note that if you are coming from the North, there is an error, you turn LEFT heading SOUTH on 15th Ave NW. Oh, and I will have Starbucks coffee, orange juice and Top Pot donuts for those that arrive on time! ;) You snooze, you lose on the primo Top Pot "hand forged" donuts. http://www.toppotdoughnuts.com/

    Yes, members are welcome to bring a guest or propspective "future member". :)

    Here a few pic's from today's garage tour. I would like to thank all that was involved in this Awesome tour. I had such a great time and would like to thank Paul and Eric for a fun drive over and for the memories of that sound going through the tunnels that will live on in my mind. An amazing chorus of pure Italian opera of raw horsepower.

    RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR as one put it was god Roaring......................

    Great job getting this all set up Dave! Three amazing collections in one day. It was car-guy heaven. Turned out to be decent weather for the drive home even!! I think almost the entire club turned out too. Did anyone get a count on the number of people? Had to be about the largest turnout I've seen. I seem to be having problems posting pictures but if I figure it out I'll get some up.

    Thanks!
    John

    The real thanks goes to John Goodman, Ken McBride, and Bill Cotter. With a healthly does of accolades to Walter Gerber, Mike and Roger for their assistance in opening up the collections Saturday morning and answering questions from us all.

    BTW, the official sign in count was 94 people, but we estimate between 110 and 120 total.

    Nice turn out. ;)
