All of those who missed it, well, you missed it!

Great seeing all of the guys and cars, especially the honored guest, Doc! Hope your trip back was OK!

There were about 6 or 7 X's that weren't Wayne's, 2 Scorpions, a 3P, the 'budget Zagato' and a couple other 'non Italian' cars - you know who you are

Let's see if I can remember how many X's Wayne had.... the V6 (one), the 2 from Mac/Holly (two, three), the free '74 and '75 (four, five), the '86 (six) and the 2 ready for the crusher (seven, eight!!). Did I miss any? Oh ya, the remainder of my third Scorpion! Whew!

I'll see if I can post the pictures soon, I don't have access to a server that will allow outside access. Anyone out there from the party what to show these for me?

I also got a request from Mac, "let everone know I'm still alive!"

Hope to have another one of these real soon!<!-- google_ad_section_end -->

[FONT=Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Tahoma, Arial]<!-- google_ad_section_start -->I second this! Wayne and his wife deserve great accolades for hosting the party and bbq. While eating burgers and dogs hot off the grill, we were surrounded with all the rolling stock mentioned by John, as well as engine sounds from the nearby racetrack. And thanks to Doc for being willing to experience one of those mythical summer days in the Pacific Northwest.

It was an incredible day, including the drive up and back to Portland. Mike Mittlestead and I were a bit late, resulting from a stop at a parts yard to liberate a few parts that were slowly being covered by thistles and wasp nests. A decent score, but the prices were a bit higher than expected, so it may have been the last trip to that particular yard.

Once we rolled into Wayne's yard, we were immediately welcomed by the participants who drooled over Mike's Daytonas and sharp black X. Others commented how much my 128 3P had changed from last year, wearing it's new coat of paint. Of course, all the cars there were impressive, each with its own story. Then it was into the garage where we watched the tech session to lower Mac's rear struts. Meanwhile others feasted on potato salad, brownies, and northwest microbrews.

It was an incredible day, and it looked like everyone had a wonderful time. Thanks again to the Wrights for their hospitality!<!-- google_ad_section_end -->

[FONT=Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Tahoma, Arial]<!-- google_ad_section_start -->My thanks also to Wayne and Sandy. Glad I finally had a running Fiat to bring. My only regret is that I have not resolved all the names to faces yet!

I should be able to put the photos on my MSN pages. Plenty of capacity and speed is good too. E-mail me and we'll get them up for all to see.

[FONT=Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Tahoma, Arial]<!-- google_ad_section_start -->Wayne and Sandy are fantastic hosts and the setting was just right! And oh so much eye candy - wait til the car pics are up! This is going to become an annual (or even more often?) event. We'll work those details out but the bottom line is that this was the most fun I have had in a good while, and then there's that STASH man!! You name it, Wayne has it. Thanks again Wayne for your effort on the tech sessions, the springs are great!

[FONT=Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Tahoma, Arial]<!-- google_ad_section_start -->Wayne's place is impressive, the kind with excess garage space, parts storage and oh yeah a very nice home.

I arrived late, since I didn't remeber the event until 1:30pm, but better late than never. It was good to see some familiar faces and the new ones too. Any more X's and we would have been shut down by the local vice squad!

Thanks to Wayne also for letting me clear the throat of the Budget Zagato's fuel pump in his driveway. Didn't plan on that, no siree.

Until next time, Ciao!

[FONT=Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Tahoma, Arial]<!-- google_ad_section_start -->Wayne, you are truly a gentleman! Thank you so much for everything (and yes, I did get the envelope).

I had a great time, and it was such a pleasure to finally put faces to the names and voices to the typing!

I also came to the realization that you guys are light years ahead of us in terms of organization and collective fiat knowledge... you have really set the bar for the rest of us to match!

I'll post pictures as soon as I can!

Cheers,
