Whats the general consensus about bringing along the lady? If others are doing it, Ill bring her too. But if we are keeping this all dudes, fine with me.


you get the word out on gmmodernmuscle.com? Pretty much an all omaha/lincoln NE site. (looks like their IP has been suspended for the time being)

Not a prob if you want to bring her....just bring xtra money if she wants to eat or if she wants a t-shirt. My wonderful g/f will be there, so I don't see why you guys can't bring yours.

Josh I'm going to throw this out there for all of you to think about. This is just my opinion of course

How about a big Cruise???? I don't know how this will work out all in one day. But for those that want to dyno, do that first thing in the morning till about 1:00-2:00 then we can all meet at your place right after that. BBQ till about 6:00 or so then go for a nice big cruise around Des Moines??? Just make a big circle around Des Moines???

Just a thought of seeing tons of fbody's of all make and generations all together is a neat scene

Give it some thought....

That sounds like an awesome idea. However, the dyno thing still presents a problem. Are you saying we should start the dyno thing like at 9AM then take it til 5PM? Only about 30-35 cars will get to dyno at 1 pull each....if we do an 8 hour session.

But hell yeah, the cruise around Des Moines aounds awesome and will get a lot of people going "Holy hell!"

Any ideas on what to do with the whole dyno thing?

I'm personally not interested in a Dyno run since I was just at a dyno in Illinois about 4 months ago.

I guess you need to see how many people are seriously interested in a dyno?? That they know that it is a Mustang Dyno, not a DynoJet, which some of them might prefer over the other.

If there isn't enough interest, then you might want to throw the dyno thing out the window. You might be calling this a Dyno Day instead of a BBQ Gathering/Cruise

Got some time to think about everything, but then again Spring/Summer is just around the corner as well

You make a good point Josh. I'm not sure how many peeps will want to dyno. I will have to ask everyone if they want to or not via PM or email. I will need some help getting all of this setup and I really appreciate the help you are giving.

Do you want me to change what I'm calling it to a gathering/cruise? Cuz I have been calling it a meet/gathering/BBQ...

I don't mind if other peeps come in their other cars, but this show is a f-body only show. So you can come and park, but you won't be officially part of the show.

This is your show and I will just give you my input

I think you need to create a sign up sheet, so to speak and have a cut off date as to when you can finally sign up for a dyno. If you don't have lets say no more than 15-20 people by the cut off date then axe the dyno event off of the agenda. I mean you could possibly have 35-50 people interested in a dyno and you know they will not be able to do all of them in one day.

I personally think this should be a Gathering/BBQ/Cruise Event. The dyno thing is a great idea don't get me wrong, but I think trying to push everything all in to one day is quite a bit. A Dyno day, well is a complete long day event.

Like I said this is just my opinion, but its your show you do what ever you'd like to do. I think its great your taking charge and creating this type of event

Also the C5 owners that used to be fbody owners you know who you are Hopefully Josh will allow you guys to join in on the fun, cruise, BBQ, but you guys can have your own parking spots
