I am planning on reuniting with ASC and the LCC Staff coinciding with Woodward Dream Cruise Weekend the third week of August, 2011. Plans are now underway and the location will most likely be Lansing. More information will follow in the months to come. I am currently working with Sue Figel (LCC) and waiting on confirmation for an ASC employee to join in.
In order to reach as many as we can, 2011 will be the best for planning stages plus marks the 5 year end of production of the SSR.
This is in no way an attempt to take away from the Flagstaff National Rally that is already in place for September of 2011.
10 years is to long so a 5 year reunion is best! With the recent development of the SSR Heritage Forum it has made it possible for me to reconnect with many LCC/ASC staff the passion is till there and many are wondering how we are all doing as well.
Thank You,

Thanks Doug that's a relief!! I've been working behind the scene here and things are unfolding quickly.
I've stated many times that I was planning on re-uniting and the 5 year mark is "right" to do just that. Looks like 2011 will be a busy year ....I'd better start saving now as I don't want to miss the Flagstaff Rally either!

I knew you'd jump in with both feet .....we've shared many chats about just this topic in the past and present. Your passion for all runs as deep as mine does... it's evident in your above post!! Yes Chuck our goal is to re-unite with the "Core Team" Engineer's, Designers, Quality and hourly workers ....etc. I too am confident that they are looking forward to this reunite....it's evident in current e-mails and phone calls shared.
If there is anything I can have you do from there....you can be sure that I'll contact you. I appreciate the willingness to step forward!
Rick Wagner..........ya never know but I'll do my best he seems to have a lot of time on his hands these days.

How about settling for the Lansing, Detroit, GM Locals news?
A 5 year reunion with the SSR owners, Core Team, Workers ...... as word gets out I am sure it will stir up some sort of TV, News interviews and articles. I have a few e-mails that can stir up just that type of exposure
I gotta make this one so count me in.The Woodward Dream Cruise is something I've always wanted to do. And your plan of reuniting with ASC and the LCC Staff just made it better.
Then an added bonus for me is to visit Hamtramck,where my mothers side of the family is from. Better start saving for this....

I lived in Hamtramck when we first moved here......parents moved us out just after the riots occurred in 67-68.....gosh I haven't been back there in a long time. Still remember the house as vividly as yesterday!
Woodward Dream Cruise is a must see......Tommy you'll love it!!

This sounds like it is a definite stop "On the Road to Flagstaff" so you can make me a attendee.

Deb, Bob and I are going to join you again for the 2011 WDC. We loved our first one and it's time to return!
We will also be going to the Flagstaff National Rally. We will fly to Detroit in August and drive to Flagstaff in September. 2011 is shaping up to be a pretty "Fanatical" year!

My SSR: 06 SLINGSHOT 6 SPEED Born: 10/21/2005 Theme Song: RoadRunner by Aerosmith
Being a new member, I have a question. With all of the rallys and reunions that are coming up, I was wondering if most people drive or trailer their SSR's. My 06 is very low milage and I was wanting to keep it that way, but I would also like to attend some of the rallies. I know it was built to drive, but sense they are not in production any more I am trying to keep the miles down.
