CB definitely made life convenient

CBs/radios are cool. I used radios quite often back in the day. I'm trying to get away from leading herds though.

Also, y'all did it right on that smaller group drive on the Cherohala loop. I had to lead about 50 cars, in my buddy's NB2, through the loop and the only person I knew was chief, lol.


Everyone here should also plan on AMP on Thursday for next year!

Yeah, and you almost remembered my name! I can't really say anything though, I'm very bad at remembering names unless I have met someone a few times. I don't hang out on here much which makes it even harder.

mt.net name tags or printed shirts next year lol

Leading large groups of drivers is a science unto itself. I led a group of five cars from Chicago to Deals Gap last year. We got screwed up in Indianapolis but aside from that we stayed together the whole time.

For the record, It wasn't Indy itself that screwed us up, it was a change that was made in the moment to avoid some traffic building up and one in our group (who didn't have CB) wasn't paying attention.

I tried leading a group once. I was the one that got pulled over. No more.

psyber_0ptix 08-08-2018 07:34 PM

Midtenn was leading a mini group back from lunch. A cop woop-wooped us on the dragon and we pulled ourselves over. The cop proceeded to laugh at us and not even step out of the car. We left.

I guess you could also claim lgbtq discrimination

I'm only wearing shirts with my own car and Instagram handle on it next year. You get any good tips from your cabin mates on shoot locations?

It was fully expecting to take the hit for the group.

From US129Photos.com. Splooge on the headlight cover is a bonus.

The whole time hanging out and you didn't tell me what your name was on here? FOR SHAME. I loved your car, i love me some RB bumpers and battleship grey.

Sorry, I must have told "not Ben" or "also not Ben". So are you the source of the splooge on the headlight lid?

concealer404 08-09-2018 10:16 AM

Possibly even "still not Ben." Or that other dude that definitely also wasn't Ben, but had a great taste in cars.

I have to imagine you didn't need to tell Cooper though, right?

Very true. Apparently my car was confused more than a few times that weekend.

Was mine, this was it's shakedown run so I didn't bring it out to play. And no, I didn't intentionally copy middtenn.

concealer404 08-09-2018 12:23 PM

I think we met in passing too. I'm actually just out of frame to the left of that picture. :P

I'm definitely getting smoked front markers to copy you.

on the way home, the county had big mowers being towed by big tractors in clayton, ga. the mower kicked out a log, probably 14" x 3" out and it hit my nose. left a mark that may or may not buff out. other than that, i'm now peeling like a banana from too much sun. but damn, that was fun.
