GT owners and Forum members in town for the Barrett-Jackson Auction are getting together for a dinner, cocktail hour, and bid strategy sesson before you go after those Boss 429, Cobra 289 FIA, 65 GT350, and GT40 Mk II bargans. :banana Last year they had a great deal on a bus!! :ack There appears to be some divergance on which night would be best. Saturday night most people will want to watch the heavy hitters (Bony) bid so Wednsday, Thursday (my first choice) or Friday are the choices. Secure guarded parking will be provided along with our own space and super service at Arizonas finest (my opinion) Rib/Steak/Fish restaurant, Don & Charlie's. I want to know 3 things.

1. What nights CAN you attend?
2. What night is your first choice?
3. How many people will attend with you? (wife, kids, mistress)

Join Bony and Chip for an evening of politically incorrect discussion and artery clogging fare. :cheers PM me with any questions but please answer the above 3 questions on the thread.

Thanks,
Chip

I can only make Wednesday night since I have to be in another city the rest of the week. I will be flying in for the dinner if it is the night that ultimately works for everyone.

Chip -

Thanks for taking the lead. I can make it Thurs., Fri., or Sat., but would say my preference would be for Thursday. There will be four of us, my wife and I, plus another couple from Texas meeting us at B-J.

Chip, is the offer to provide security for the GT parking area still a go?

Bony,
Yes, we will park in a seperate area and a uniformed armed guard from Team CB Petroleum will watch the cars the entire time. He will shoot and dismember anybody that attempts to drool on the GT's. :biggrin

So far.......

....Wednesday night has the most requests. Post up if you're coming and I'll finalize the date by Dec 15. Jeff, if we do this on Wed. and you can't make it Wed. perhaps a smaller function Thur. night would be fun as well.

I am in. Just say where and when. Those of us coming from the East would sure appreciate it if it wasn't too late getting started. I must be getting old... :rofl

Haven't been to Don & Charlies in about 6 months, but I'm sure it's still A+++.
My 1/2 cent: Between 5 and 6 PM at D&C's = stellar. Early for the East coast boys; not as busy inside (or outside by the cars) at the restaurant.

Chip -
Please don't feel obliged to set up a second dinner on my account - if the majority want to go Wednesday, go ahead - I'll get over it :biggrin

Heck, I don't even own a GT - I just love the car, and like most of the fine people I've met on this Forum. Do whatever is best for the group.

regards,

Jeff
