The Annual Bluegrass Fieros Group Cookout/Table Dancing and Lying Contest is on again this year, everyone is invited. We'll cook burgers, dogs and brats, have some fun, tell some stories and ooooh and awww over each other's car and the mods we've made.
BMWguru and anonymity are bringing the VR6 Fiero, there will be several conversion cars, to list a few, at least one NorthStar swap, several 4.9 swaps, one or two 3800SC swaps, one or two SBC swaps, a couple of rebodies have indicated they are coming. Should be a good time, always has been. I don't provide alcohol but don't have a problem if someone wants to bring their own.
If you commit to being there, I will have burgers, dogs or brats and soft drinks for you to enjoy if you give me a maybe, I might still have something for you to eat. There is no charge but I'd be lying if I said donations weren't welcome but, donations are not being solicited. Dave has indicted that he'll dance so, bring your dollar bills. He's aleady admitted he'll do almost anything for money.
Noon to ????? on 15 August, Frankfort, KY. My house. PM for directions or phone contact information.
Those that have fold up chairs might want to bring them along, seating might be limited. I will have the shop open and will make sure my lift is available for anyone that wants to change their oil or just look at the underside of their car. BTW, bring your own oil and filter. I've got a couple of barrels for used oil so you won't have to transport your old used oil away, I'll take care of it for you. This is an opportunity to see those folks and cars you don't see on a regular basis. It's not a show and shine though you're welcome to display your car. It not a car show, its a Fiero get together. Let's have some fun.
Edited: Forgot to mark this thread to notify me of when someone posts so I'll try to check it several times a day for those needing directions. Sorry about that. BTW, Cliff, you're welcome if you just happen to be in the area.

The 15th is Serena's birthday, so I will have to be home for a birthday party at some point that day. Sara is still in the planning stages of the birthday party and trying to get more family to come down, so I do not know if I can sneak away for a few hrs to attend. I will keep you posted.

Hope you can make it Paul. You were the featured dancer till Dave jumped up.
Last time I was in Frankfort was 1970? Back in my college days. There was an all girl college there that we visited a lot. My college had 2570 guys and 1 girl for students. And she still could not get a date. See if I can remember how to get there.

As we close in on the event date, I'll send directions to anyone requesting them. Don't forget to bring oil and filter if you want to change your oil on the lift. I'm probably wrong on this one, I just figured that some folks might want to take advantage of the lift and check out the underside of their obsession.
The car, not that other obsession. Jeeze.

Ron, I got your PMs. I am a maybe for now but should be able to let you know for sure about a week before time. If I can I will drive my GT up. I am interested in checking out your lift too.
Carefull there.....maybe thats part of the reason for all those kido's. J/K
Ron, we are planning on being there and I'll try to get those issues fixed with the convertible. Even if my D/D Fiero would make it, it would be outa place with all of those modified Fieros. Rest assured we'll bring something.

Howdy everyone, and thanks for the invite, I may take you up on that. I'll have to let you know the closer it gets. I may have to work that day.
Would love to have you come to the cook out. The Table Dancing is strictly optional, it is a family event you know.

If we have the regular group come, then there will be quite a few DDs that are stock and most needing paint.
There are no egos allowed at the BFG Cookout/Table Dancing and Lying Contest.

No excuses...lol. I am driving 12 hours each way with five kids and a whiney husband. Joey
I haven't begun with my excuses yet I have a broken foot and messed up ankle which will be getting another surgery the day before. I don't have a traveling companion this time 'round, so I will most likely fall asleep while driving. The kidneys aren't in the best of shape, I get car sick. And to top it all off, I will be driving my pos Land Rover needing a radiator and fan clutch, not including the random electrical issues, somethings burning Wife and step kids will be gone for a few weeks leaving me alone. I will see what I can do!

You are fooling no one. It is plainly evident, that you are honing your lying skills--and, I might add--you aren't very good at it.
Ron, I will not be there. As much as I would love to meet this inglorious bunch of Fiero (misfits?) at such a fine gathering, divorce or murder would follow close on it's heels. Prior diabolical plans--concocted by my better half. I am old, but not yet resigned to living alone, eating my own cooking or sleeping alone in my bed, so I must respectfully decline your kind invitation.

Debbie and I will be there as will Jeff from my work. He has a surprise for you. I will be Fieroless (unless you want to come over and pick up the work in progress and haul it back and forth )

Got your PM, Ron, and I'd love to come. Unfortunately, that's a bit far away for a one day drive, and more importantly, the funds just aren't there for a trip this year. But, I'd appreciate it if you'd consider giving me a raincheck....who knows, maybe next year....

Next year's theme will probably be different, the Table Dancing Contest hasn't gone over as well as hoped. We may have to introduce trampolines next year but, I'm afraid John will hurt himself. Regardless, your wife is always welcome. Tell her she can bring you along.

Glad you're gonna make it. I'll consider your suggestion on your Fiero.

I'm driving from Lakeland, FL to Allentown PA that weekend. For the few hours it will add to the trip, it might be worth it to see Dave table dance. Put my company Taurus and I down as maybes.
Cheers, Rich

Rich, Would love to have you visit with us. I'm told for an extra buck or two, Dave puts on a really good show (if you know what I mean).

Those that haven't been to my place before will probably want/need directions. I can assure you, if you're using a GPS, you won't find my home. This is a relatively new sub-division and the streets to the first phase are shown but, the streets for the second and third phases are not. I'm almost to the back of the sub-division. So, if'n you're need'n directions, send me a PM or email.
