Did someone say stuff for sale? NIFE will have most of our merchandise available for purchase at The Dells Run. Including the limited edition Fiero Playing Cards and FIERORAMA 20 T-shirts. Fierorama T-Shirts tend to sell out quick in sizes besides L and XL, so if you want one, Dells Run is a good time to buy.
Washing, polishing, and waxing my Fiero today getting it ready. Cleaning the interior tomorrow. Packing up Tuesday. Loading up and leaving on Wednesday. Can't wait. Had a real good time last year. Looking like it's calling for rain. Hope it stops for the show on Sunday but what the hell.
I assembled mine for appearances, and went for a drive. My Fiero is having the predictable TCC lockup. I was hoping to wait until next year to deal with that, but I guess the car has other plans. It's been a year since my Fiero has was this assembled. I'm using a borrowed dash, until I fix mine.
Want to be there, Took the car for a shake down run in Friday, and ran like crap by the end. Car won't be looked at till Tuesday night or Wednesday... Crossing our fingers something small that I missed our broke when I had things apart this winter.
Really hoping I can have it for power tour the following weekend. Have ave a plan b for power tour work the wrangler, but dells run won't be the same without the Fiero
If no car we might still make a appearance. Would come up Saturday and might stay night, nothing booked as of yet just found out I can get Sunday of work today.. What timing huh?

Did it have a service engine light? Hope you guys make it either way.
If anyone is going to be leaving from or heading thru the rockford area around 11am Thursday, we have a small caravan of 3 that will be meeting there. Hit me up if you want details.
Spent the last four days getting 2 cars ready to go! One of them we have only owned for 7 days and it hasn't been at the Dells Run since 1998. Had to put about 40 hours of work into it to make it road worthy. Leaving tomorrow as soon as we get Alex out of school.

Got my special yellow one off the wheel carts and road tested for any issues. Wasn't expecting any coming out of storage but after sitting for 6 months.
Also bringing one of my red ones. Care to guess which one?
Well, I was set for a nice 4 day weekend. Car decided to eat the selector cable stranding me for 2 days. Was able to get it lubed up to the point I could limp back home.
It was great to see some familiar faces and meet some new people.
I never got to speak with the guy with the blue Fiero above, either. Very nice car. If you are on here and would PM me, that'd be great. There were some really nice cars there, but good people, too.
Now, except for the guy from Ontario, and the guy from Nebraska, everyone should be home by now. Did everyone make it home OK? The guy from Florida flew in, so should be back by now. Did I hear some people were staying in Madison?
Mrfred8, I'm curious what the problem was. Will the computer tell you?
Mark, I'm guessing you got back OK, because I saw your alternate ride on the back of the trailer through Springfield. And no, my Fiero didn't break down...my wife stopped to change her eyes.
One other thing. I think I passed Mr 84 Indy on the way up, but was following him for the first part of the cruise. Shortly before he stopped, I noticed that the fuel door was open, and then the reverse lights came on while he was driving forward. I stopped with him, and he fixed his fuel door, but I never spoke with hime after. If you are he or know him, you may want to mention this to him.

Had a great weekend. Cruises and events and hanging out. The only day it rained was show day, at least the last half of the show was dry. Also I didnt have to go re-wash my car show day, just towel dry it.
A fun show even for me without my Fiero. I was able to chauffeur some people around to the cruises and dining events. Tom needs to do a better job at controlling the weather. There were many really nice cars at the Dells.
I blame the weather on the Prezzz. Apparen'ly, he wasn't good this year. He admitted it on Sunday. Hopefully, his new ”deal” works for next year.
Really, the rain was an annoyance. I wasn't thrilled. I can't say it was a show stopper, though. I can't think of anything I didn't get to do, as a result.
