With the exception of having a few girls unexpectedly show up in my hotel room, I could not have asked for a better weekend. Obviously if there is one thing you need to do, it is to NOT miss the next Homecomming.

With the exception? How is that bad? :rotf:

If we have it next year almost 99% it will be Hampton inn & Unlimited truck & Trailer agin. Hampton Inn treated us GREAT!! & unlimited is A really cool place to have it because of the owner getting his Crovette ZO6's out running us out front of his place & letting all of us race in front of his place. So I suggest next year you MUST find the time to make it!!! O did I mention we had CHEESE!! I have A Fridg. full !!

Aj.

Yeah that was VERY cool of them to allow us to use the conference room (that they shouldn't have because there were doors in there that were getting varnished) for the raffle since we got rained out

Heh, I almost didn't make it out Friday night due to lack of sleep. One hundred plus hous with only 14 hours of sleep isn't a good ratio... However, seeing Dennis, Keith, Brandon, Bill, Tim and some of the Canadians waiting up for me to arrive made it worth it

! Screw it, next year I'm gonna take Friday off so that I can get there early. Only having five vacation days a year sucks

funding, time, kids, family, running a new business....

i could care less if I had my truck or not....come to learn over the years of syty events its not about the trucks so much as meeting everyone and making friends....the trucks come secondary as an excuse to hang out.

Had to fire one of my employees!!! so that means i need to get in there and get things done. Came at a bad time i really wanted to go.Running a retail store is worse than kids it take all your time to be successfull. Mabey next year.

Re: What kept you from coming to homecoming?

Main reason for not attending was the weather forcast and the expense if it turned out to be a washout. However, after reading about the event and watching the videos, that should have been the last thing to worry about. Just meeting all the other members would have made it worth the trip, rain or no rain. There is a lot I need to learn about my truck and this would have been a perfect opportunity for that. Hope to make it out next year and with my truck. Should have a better idea how reliable she is. I just finished working out some bugs she had with the ecm and the harness connections. She's running much better now.

Re: What kept you from coming to homecoming?

Well, as I see it, if the gas prices stay the same & everyone has time, for the next homecoming we can add 16 more trucks onto the list that will be coming for next homecoming. & if gas prices go down ( LOL..) We will have 23 more trucks that will make it. So hope the gas prices go down & you all have time for the next homecoming.. we will have around 60 + trucks if all the moons are inlne. So start making time now. & buy your gas in Mexico $2.00 A gal.. Just don't get the gas price difference if it is all coming from the same pipe line.. hhhmmm...

Have A good day !
 
Re: What kept you from coming to homecoming?

Just going to chime in with why I didn't make it to my first SyTy event.

1. The motor I bought in February, was not delivered to my door until 6-21-2008 (It's a long story you can look at my other posts...) Needless to say my Ty was unmotivated.

2. I had a week long conference in Vegas that I had to leave for early Sunday morning. I thought about being a little crazy taking Friday off of work, but I was way too busy.

3. I'm getting married soon and I caught enough flack for being gone at a conference so close to the weddding!
