BSeery Posted April 14, 2005 Share Posted April 14, 2005 THIS EVENT HAS BEEN POSTPONED UNTIL END OF SEPTEMBER. We only had 3 cars interested and will hold this event later on. A date will be set this summer. We will be cruising to Pinetop / Show Low Arizona for lunch at Johnny Angles. Those that went last year absolutely loved the drive so we are doing it again. We leave from the Arizona Mills and drive through Superior, Miami, Globe and then up the Salt River Canyon to Show Low. Lunch in Pine top at a 50's themed diner called Johnny Angles and then a cruise back home. Last year the return route went through Heber, over to Payson and back through Fountain Hills. Maybe supper could be at the Split Window Diner ????RSVP and post here if you have any questions.We will meet at Krispy Kreme at the Arizona Mills Mall at 8:00 a.m. and leave by 8:30. Last year we had a great time and the cruise from Gold Canyon all the way through Globe and the Salt River Canyon and back home through Heber and Payson the road was very scenic and full of twisty sections for some fun. Hope to see a big crowd like we did in 2004. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BSeery Posted April 17, 2005 Author Share Posted April 17, 2005 Since I am continuing on to Bowling Green Kentucky from Johnny Angles, can someone give Tracy a ride back home? She loves riding in the C5's. Anyone got a side seat open for the ride back home? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest XLR8TNC5 Posted April 20, 2005 Share Posted April 20, 2005 Im a go for this. Not sure if we will be driving both the C5's or not, but I would not mind offering a seat to Tracy, if I am a lone pilot that day. She doesn't scare easily does she? lol. ;) Me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest chadman Posted May 15, 2005 Share Posted May 15, 2005 Just curious how many are planning to run to ShowLow this weekend?? I'm thinking about making the run to help break in my new motor.

BSeery Posted May 15, 2005 Author Share Posted May 15, 2005 Well, I am for sure. I think we will have 8-10 cars total. I haven't heard to many firm commitments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3,503 lbs of trouble Posted May 16, 2005 Share Posted May 16, 2005 Damn Deja Vu. I feel like I've answered this question before...I wish I could go this year, but I told the Arizona DeLorean Club I'd participate in a Tucson tech session that we chose to hold down their so the Tucson members would see that we are not just a "Phoenix" club. Even if my presence was not required in Tucson, my Corvette has a bad water pump, so it's not going anywhere. My DeLorean needs a new cooling system before it can leave on any long journeys, and my T-bird has landed itself at Earnhardt's with an undetermined issue that's sure to empty my wallet. So Show Low is a no go for me. I was even invited on a cruise up to Jerome with the Pantera club that day. Too bad I don't have one of those too.It's a nice cruise up there. You should go. : http://arizonavette.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=368 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desertdawg Posted May 17, 2005 Share Posted May 17, 2005 Hi Chadman, : Welcome to the ACE...Sorry I won't get to make this trip. The extra 100 miles to and from Phoenix just add up to a really long day for me. (and the wife has to many honey-do's to list here)... Hope to meet you at a future meet though... : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Desertdawg Posted May 18, 2005 Share Posted May 18, 2005 I'm not going for two reasons,1 is the additional 100 miles each way on top of the normal cruise.2 is the honey-do list... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We will be meeting another Vette at the Salt River Canyon as well, a new member from Show Low. Chad Payne in his C3 might be there too.We will see how many that are at pizza Friday night want to go.

BSeery Posted May 19, 2005 Author Share Posted May 19, 2005 What was wrong with the Vette? This would be the best cruise to take the C3 on since we won't see speeds above 70 MPH and some of it is around 30 - 40 mph. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BSeery Posted May 19, 2005 Author Share Posted May 19, 2005 I didn't forget what my diagnosis was. But I did not know for sure what you had fixed and if that did indeed take care of the problem.The modulator on the transmission controls upshifts. If it leaks you can end up with bad shift timing. If it's real bad the engine will suck transmission fluid up through the vacuum line and burn it in the engine and make the exhaust smoke just a bit.So, the noise and the leaks went away when (whoever did he work) changed the water pump and lower hose. I bet it doesn't get as hot on the interstate anymore.What's the word on the t-bird ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knkayotte Posted May 19, 2005 Share Posted May 19, 2005 If I can swing the gas money I'll go, but that's "iffy" at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
