    It s almost time

    Amy and I have been looking forward to this vacation for some time now. The ACR is getting picked up in 48 hours.. we are already for some miles on the new car. It got here so late last fall that she only has 160 miles on her. And worse yet it is still snowing in Erie, so it's debut drive of 2018 will be in sunny Las Vegas!! See u all soon. Doc

    Not a bad way to put the "first" miles on it!

    Glad I wont be the only one trying to work through break in miles while at the event. Everyone will leave the light WOT and you and I will be granny shifting under 3000 rpm lol Mine is sitting at 51 miles and is riding my trailer all the way out. lol

    Hey there Robert, long time no see. Definitely going to be a great event. I pushed on mine a little bit last year to make sure there were no problems. I changed the oil a month ago just to be safe and now it's ready. ..Eric

    Hey Eric,

    Yeah, it has been a while. Miss my summer extended family.

    Thats a good idea. I have about an hour on the car so far so it is too early for my first oil change. Literally one trip to fill fuel and thats about all thats on the car as I got it so late in the season.

    Dr V, great looking ACR!!

    Weather will be great in Vegas, maybe a little warm. I was there at the track yesterday in the upper 80's and the forecast for NVE 3 is high of 90 the whole event.

    I hear you about Erie, I was in Detroit last week for worlk and it was freezing! See you and that ACR in Vegas!! mike

    Should be a welcome relief to all those who have dealt with the lingering winter!

    The caravans and pre-trips are beginning this week as Vipers migrate to Vegas. Safe travels you guys!

    Snow is pretty much all gone here, have not driven the 01 because of the late spring here, but everything seems good.
    Oil and filter changed, greased, tire pressures, hoses and belts appear good.
    2400 miles to Vegas! Leaving on Friday hoping for Tuesday arrival.
    Tried different ways but these pics remain upside down? Frustrating

    I thought I was going to have the least miles on a car at 435. Can't wait!

    Thanks Sam;
    Very frustrating posting these pics off my phone, I did some research after posting and apparently I was holding my phone the wrong way up?
    I beleive you inspected this car for me before I bought it in 2010?
    In Columbus, Ohio. It has been no problem since other than a temp sensor!
