Gentlemen,

Those members who have attended one of my functions before already know the drill but for the first-timers, the charge for tomorrow night's event will be handled as follows:

Every attendee must pay in cash. Checks or credit cards will not be accepted and nobody will be provided with a separate bill. Everyone is expected to show up with a pocket full of $20 bills. Tap the ATM before your arrival and if you forget there is a bank right across the street from Don and Charlie's. Everyone's dinner and cocktails will be added together with an 18% tip and the bill will be presented to me. Every attendee will pay the same amount. It's going to be a great time! I will be hosting 2 special toasts tomorrow night. :cheers We'll see you there.

Chip

Just kidding!

See you all there!

I'm assuming there may be a "lack" of GT's tonight - given we'd have to affix a boat propeller on the rear! =)

Looking forward to it anyway. Thanks for lining it up Chip.

Have fun tonight boys, I was going to head out for the night but there is like a Cat 5 Hurricane blowing through Socal right now and flying or driving 5 hours would not be fun in this crap, especially over the 6000 Ft passes on the way.there.

Southwest just sent me a notice my flight has been cancelled. There is a 70+ min wait on hold to check on later flights.....so not looking good.

Unfortunately the phoenix airport is closed due to high winds so we won't land until really late tonight. I hate missing this diner but it is what it is.

Gentlemen,

If you don't want to drive your GT in the rain, leave it in the garage and join us anyway! Take a cab or bring your Ford Expedition!! :lol

Arizona averages 350 days of sunshine a year. But almost every year it rains during Barrett-Jackson!! :confused What's the deal with that?

No matter how you get there, make your way to Don & Charlie's at 7pm tonight. It'll be a great time. :cheers

2011 5.0 32V Mustang GT will accompany Mark McGowan.

Gentlemen,

Mark McGowan just sent me a note giving me the OK to post that he will be bringing a 2011 5.0L "Coyote 32 valve V-8" Mustang GT to tonight's dinner for participants to examine. The pictures look spectacular and I'm looking forward to seeing the car tonight in person. See you there.
