Thread: Daytona Turkey Run ??

Tweet

Anyone going to Daytona for the Turkey run this year? Pops, Dan and I are going Thursday through Sunday with the two T buckets. Mine is going on a trailer this year so i can actually make it to Daytona Pops is driving his of course! If mine had not swallowed a valve last year on the way I would be doing the same. Hope to see you out there, Don Jr.

If eveything goes as planned, I'll be there before lunch time on Friday, plan to stay 'til Saturday night. I'll be looking for your blue 'T' and Dad's ride.

Sounds good Mike. Bringing a car this year?

take some pictures! Have fun there for me!

I'll be there.

I was hoping to make it but it's not in the cards this year... Maybe in 09

I'll be in the garage....but I sure do hope all of you bring back a bazillion pictures!!!!!!! Have a blast!!

Ill be there!! Tell your pops to bring his cell phone this year so i can find you guys.

My cheap cell phone doesn't work out of this area.........I lose signal if I go more than 100 miles from home. Then it keeps searching and runs down the battery. Never buy a phone off of some guy on the street.

Yep, the countdown is here, two more days and we are on the road. After Dan and I razzed Don about trailering last year and the breakdown he had, there was NO WAY we were going to suggest he drive it there this time. We even installed a hitch on Dans pickup so he can pull the trailer with Don's T on it. Me, I'm ready for the road. Don opened up his headers and installed turnouts, that baby is LOUD!!

I have a feeling this year's TR will be smaller than previous years. It seems every other event this year was off a little, like Biketoberfest and the Dreamcruise, both held in Daytona. That could make for better bargains in the swap area, and Dan is going to try to find the makings of a drag Fiat Topo....ever since we went to the Nostalgia Drags he has been itching to hit the 1/4 mile. Don and I are going to make him finish the RPU first though.

We will take lots of pictures, and hope we don't bore any of you with them when we get back Sunday night.

Don

Gee, I don't know it's just a little down the road for me..........LOL
BradC

Yeah Brad, we won't be surprised if you show up..........you're kinda like this guy..........

Don

Well where`s the meeting spot this year? Ill be down saturday, so ill be looking for ya.

I guess at the event they hold on the East end of the track at night. That worked out pretty well last year, and at least some of us were able to hook up. Is that what the rest of you had in mind?

Don

The pre-entry has over 3000 signed in, last years registrared number was over 5100 (it was packed on Friday and Saturday). This year they scheduled a Classic/Muscle/Hot Rod auction. Don't know how well it will go due to the economy, but it could be fun to see how overpriced some of the reserve vehicles will be.

I'll see you guys there. We will be leaving early Thursday morning and will be there sometime Thursday afternoon. I'll be at the same place we met last year on the east end of the track. Looking forward to seeing you guys again.
