one question; When is it?

ooops thought it was listed:damnit Sept 26!

ok Thanks. I'll probably go depending on the schedule

sounds like a plan! Look for a lot of CopeCustoms truck to be there!

If ya'll bring the orange truck, and we can get enough "jumbo" trucks like that there will more than likely be a class in the car show for it. Its on Facebook under "trucking for troops". if anyone wants to park as a group or club, thats not a problem just let us know. you can preregister with Ian or Dude, and it is a little cheaper when pre-registering. also, first 150 vehicles registered get a truckin for troops dash plaque.
