Same here, Willie! Bev and I got back around 6:30 EDT on Sunday. Ran into post Indy500 traffic when we got back, but other than that it was smooth.

 

I got home, made it to work, and still haven't taken a nap...:lol: It was apleasure meeting you and all the others! Can't wait till sap checks in w/pics

 

I got back to Edmonton at about 10:00pm MDT last night after leaving Springfield at 11:00am CDT ... about 1800 miles in 36 hours.

Edit: Just looked at my odometer readings.

Edmonton to Branson (once I finally got my car out of the shop): 1866 miles
Total Round Trip: 3731 miles

On the way down I did the first 1586 miles in 28 hours. I'm going to make a point to not try to make these kinds of times again, I'm wiped right out.

I'm not sure if reboticon is actually home yet, but I heard from him today and it didn't sound like he wrecked or anything.



Pics will have to wait a bit, I've got too much catching up to do after being gone for 11 days.

 

Im home!!! About 7-8 hrs. Great meet and great to meet all of you! Can't wait till next year!
Dallas to Branson= 433 mi.
After comming home = 1400mi.

I drove more in branson than i did the trip up there

Now i have 99,777. about to hit the big 100,000mi!!!

Pics will be up in the meet thread.

 

Home! The biggest slowdown was an hour of stop-and-go Memorial Day traffic coming into north Phoenix. :grumble:

Beginning mileage: 374,252
Ending mileage:

Total NALM miles driven since last Tuesday: 3,068

I had the time of my life!

 

I don't know how you manage it. Somewhere in your car you must have a hidden stash of caffeine injections.

 

here's the question everyone wants to know... where's alex? :hide:

 

he made it to NALM where where you?:hide:

 

last year this time he wrecked on his way home, thats why hes asking.

 

yea i was the 1 who went and helped him get home.

 

rear upper ball joints=fuked. i checked everything b4 leaving for nalm but i only put about 600miles on the car since i got it running and it sat for ~3years prior. they looosened up real bad during the drive there, then i broke a clamp for one of the axle boots on the dyno. fucking cheap axles. then one of the bolts for the control arms, that bolts into the subframe, the nut inside the subframe that it bolts into broke. i was gonna weld the control but i ended up getting shimms and got them in there really tight. i gotta replaced the rear subframe now.

Wow alex! I'm glad you got everything fixed. I posted a pic of your axl greese splatter. Something tells me you didn't clean it up

 

Wow alex! I'm glad you got everything fixed. I posted a pic of your axl greese splatter. Something tells me you didn't clean it up

I dont know about yall but im still hyped from NALM just had to say cause i cant stop talking about it to everyone lol. my wife isnt happy that she missed it i think will be trying auto x so ill be building her a auto x car soon.

 

I hear you Willie! I got home and went str8 to work on the convertible for a couple of hours.

 

yea i started doing the same thing yesterday. man im glad you made it we had a blast!

 

Yup! me too. Got up this morning and detailed the coupe. also lookin to put new legend emblems back on the trunk lid and thinking about a JDM alpha touring grill! Also went to the body shop and talked about painting my bumpers and plastics. Ready for those eyelids Jen!!!

 

Hells yes, I worked on the eyelids right up until NALM. The molds are done and I've made one set, but I need to finish those. I'm trying to do most of this myself so it's all about spare time! After we got kicked out of the hotel I went to Davids and made Alex fix my fogs and install my Blackend damper while I drank beer. I've got a Honda meet next weekend then I'll be tearing things up under the hood on the kitty kar!!

Thanks for an awesome NALM guys!!!
