[CopperCrazy]

I can drive up on Sunday morning with Bruce. I have a wedding to attend on Saturday for one of our High Impact Performance Mopar Club members.

[Phun70]

Pity you guys will miss the dinner Saturday night. I recommended a little Russian Mom and Pop place that has fantastic food!!
not to mention...........lots of liquor!

[Phun70]

If all my plans come off without a hitch, this will be the easiest event you guys ever started and it will be an immensely good time for all. Your wives will beg you to come back again!!

[Phun70]

Looks like I have a yes from at least two other local cars for this shin dig.

[BlknBlu]

I think you mean Hickory Park in Ames

Bruce

[Phun70]

Hickory park is a popular spot in ames for sure!

[BlknBlu]

I agree with Josh on realing in this event for the first year. Looks like we can make it an annual and grow the event each year.

Mens XL for me

Bruce

[Phun70]

I have a meeting with the shirt people tomorrow and would love to have some art work to work with designing the shirts. If you guys can send me some that would be awesome!!! Preferably something with the Crossroads logo or maybe a Midwest region logo or whatever. I have some ideas and a friend who's a graphic artist so I can get this done for sure!

[BlknBlu]

Pm me your email for our graphic.

Looks like I have a yes from at least two other local cars for this shin dig.

I am one of the locals that is a yes, at least for Saturday. Just wanted to let everyone know we have a Cars & Coffee in Ankeny on 10/11 from 7-10 am. Might be too early for everyone coming from out of town but I usually go (it's the 2nd Saturday of every month while weather is good). Pretty good mix of cars from a couple Ferrari's/Lambos to alot of Camaros/Mustangs/GTO's etc. They have an all-wheel dyno that cost $50 and the highest HP car would win half the proceeds from all the dyno runs that day (or at least that's how it was last year, not sure if they still do that). Obviously the turnout varies from month to month but I expect a pretty good turnout as long as the weather is nice. Something to chew on. If no one's interested I'll still plan on meeting you guys at Jordan Creek area as I live about a 1/2 mile from there.

Couple pics from past C&C's to get an idea of what shows up if anyone is interested:

Here's a pic of a 458 that parked next to me a couple months ago. Nice car to say the least.

These 2 were here last weekend:

I'm going to have to find a way to keep track of the shirts. LOL

[Phun70]

I'm guessing shirts will come out to be @ $20.00 each. I'll let you guys know when I have a final cost.

Saturday 10/11/14
Start of Redline cruise! ! Good idea to bring your two way radios if you have them. Channel (10 for starters)

10:30 a.m. at Jordan Creek in front of SCHEELS. (101 Jordan Creek Pkwy #4000, West Des Moines, IA 50266) Easiest to meet here since you can't miss the place. Back of the parking lot is probably best. I'll go case the place this weekend to see if there's a more wide open locale to meet in. This is a great area to feed our snakes. We can meet up with other regions at this location.

11:00 a.m. Head to marks workplace Acheson Autoworks (8000 University ave. Clive, IA) for a show and shine with catered food from Jethro's BBQ (Courtesy of Sam Acheson) and enjoy a great shop!

11:30 to 1:30 Meet and greet all while enjoying some BBQ!

1:30 to 5:00 spirited cruise and SHOPPING (get the ladies excited) Saylorville Lake Reservoir/Dam and surrounding areas. Take some great photos and head over to Valley Junction (217 5th St, West Des Moines, IA 50265) for the ladies to do a little shopping. The guys will have fun too!!! Lots of car memorabilia!

5:30 Head to IRENAS Restaurant and Bar. Russian steak house. (2301 Rocklyn Dr, Urbandale, IA 50322). Fantastic food and my favorite beer in the whole world. Baltika 5. They have something for everyone and the prices are very reasonable! Steaks, Chicken, Fish (stuffed grilled salmon) Pork shish-ka-bob etc. This place is almost single handedly responsible for ruining my last diet!! We will have a DVD of our choosing (hopefully home made car DVD) played on their wall sized projector during dinner if we like. We can eat, drink and party till we drop! Or we can swing down to my place right down the street and party there for a while. Bring your swimsuit! I have a Hot Tub!!
This ends day 1 events.


Sunday

9:00 a.m. Breakfast and celebration of our club presidents attendance one day late. Location 5 & DINER. (5015 E University Ave, Pleasant Hill, IA 50327) Quaint little 50's themed joint with good food.

10:30 12:30 fall cruise (I'll lead the way!! We will end this portion of the cruise in Ames)

1:00. Eat lunch (Hickory Park)(1404 S. Duff Ave, Ames, IA 50010)

2:30 to 4:00 (tbd)

4:00 Head over to the Sugar Shack in Altoona. (100 8th St SE, Altoona, IA 50009) Food if you're hungry, ICE CREAM, SHAKES, and MALTS!! Large parking lot for the last show & shine.

End of Redline Cruise 2014 I'M PROOF POSITIVE THAT NOBODY WILL GET OUT OF HERE HUNGRY!!!!

This is the latest most up to date schedule. I will be tweaking this a little mostly for afternoon Sunday and perhaps shifting start/stop times slightly.


Also I'm all about having this be an annual event!! We can always find something fun to do around here!
