(grand rod run!) pigeon forge TN. updated (pics)

Post by td »

Im headed out to the fall grand rod run on sept 11th-14th. the rod run is a twice a year 4 day event held in pigeon forge TN in the (Great Smoky Mountains) my wife, son and myself go to both spring and fall every year. they have a big car show hosted by Grand hotel and convention center, and also the whole weekend is a big cruise. 427blackpearl (Brad) and i have arranged to meet in person while we're there. we are going to park the 68's together and take some pics and hopefully have some time to shoot the breeze and get to know each other a little. we'll post some pics when we get home. if anybody else plans to attend this event please let us know in this thread so we might also have a chance to meet you. :thup:

I may show up. Hopefully I won't miss everyone like I did at the f100 nationals in knoxville. What das is everyone planning to go? I'd like to see pearl and td's truck in person. Don't know yet if the ol 72 will get to go or not though. Depends on work and home schedules.

Cool guys. I'll have to make it Saturday myself. Hopefully we can name a time and place to meet up and see the bumps. Hope to get off work to come.
