as far as my comment, i know what goes on and why, at least i have some idea. its just i thought that the people who go to these where somewhat local to the event site. i had no idea people where driving across the state almost.
i like to drive my car too so ill have to come out one of these times. i will admit, i dont have the gumption to drive all day tho. ill need to wait for a somewhat local event.
its amazing to see the friendships you guys have formed. thats pretty cool for sure. im all about that. ill need to meet you guys.

Quiet now, the elder speaks "Mustang...Born to run". Thank you for your time and attention.

OK...just fooling around. If we can get you to one event the rest will take care of itself.

The first GTG I attended was in Charlotte, seems like more than a year ago but that is all it was. Be wary, though, once you start you just won't be able to stop!
If you are going let me know, we'll find a place to link up for the drive. I met Clark in Mebane for the Dragon event and it worked pretty good, he's in Cary, too.

It's just a good time with good people. This last time we did an awesome drive on some back roads, lunch on the highest peak east of the Mississippi, and check out cars. This next event will be a cruise in. checking out cars and hanging out then eat some food. I don't make all the events, but I do make some. The wives get along and the kids run around. The wives are talking about a Charleston, SC trip. They will shop and we will go cruising. (away from the shopping area) 
As for the miles on the car, it's my daily driver. Rain or shine I'm in the Mustang. Hell, the wife and I just did a round trip 1200 mile turn and burn for that Roush. Then we packed up the entire family and did the diamondback GTG. Really it's just a bunch of guys hanging out and sometimes we do something constructive, like plan a fund raiser for the Wounded Warrior Project that raised over $4000. The next big one is for St. Jude and it seems like Jayman is heading that one up. I guess it's not for everyone, but the wife likes going, I like going and the kids just like riding in the cars. LOL

well, i love cars. but gear head...probably not so much. I needed jayman to put in my CAI...so...yeah...
ive pretty much devoted my entire life learning how to avoid manual labor of any kind. my hands are as soft as a babys *** and i intend on keeping them that way. i would be the first one eaten in the event of the apocalypse since the only thing i could offer was guns, dog training and how to cook meat.....
i take that back. on paper, at least, it sounds like im a pretty darn good apocalyptic gang member.
which brings up a good idea....anyone here wanna go shooting sometime? I have access to acres upon acres of land here, near Raleigh. Lets do a Shoot-up....

We'll try to get something going close by. I have no trouble hosting and I know Jason said he would like to host a BBQ too. If nothing else I think there is a cruise-in somewhere in Fayetteville once a month. I'll get with my buddy about it. I think a lot of guys from Horsepowerjunkies go there.

charleston? best place ever. we go as much as we can. its my vacation of choice. but i love civil war stuff. if your not a huge civil war/history guy then charleston losses some points. but the downtown and beach still rocks.

Charleston has to be my wife's favorite destination, she loves to wander the shops on King Street. And there is always a good meal or two when there.
It was quite surprising to see the cars in Lenoir from out of state. Naturally we had local cars, but there were many from South Carolina and Tennessee.
