My SSR: Silver with Pink Ghost Flames, Pink Lettering & Flares with PINK Bow Ties on Rims!
Use of radios with the NW SSRs - very seldom
If at all !!
I've tried over the years, but our only connection is by detailed printouts of destination, and cell phone numbers. Other than that, it is a VISUAL count of noses, and that's why I urge everyone to put their FOG LIGHTS ON so they are quickly identified on the road !!! It is virtually impossible for a solo driver to DRIVE PROPERLY and handle anything else (my opinion).
Personally, I don't ever turn my cell phone on unless I have a Co-Pilot riding with me who knows how to use a cell phone !

I am going to try 4/0 anyway. FRS is better than Cell because you can talk to everyone at the same time.........Convoy Control, Potti Break, etc.......

What a Fantastic Day we had!!
I really enjoyed myself and it was great meeting all the new friends with a common interest. I'm looking forward to the next time.
Here are a couple of pics and a short movie for your enjoyment. I didn't cut anything and a couple are a little out of focus and there are some dupes, but.............
Enjoy................. Griots garage may 2011 - a set on Flickr

The weather was nothing short of a asked for miracle that blessed us with mostly sunshine and clean ssr's! Yep the weathermen were all wet instead of us fanatics!!
The folks at Griott's Garage were gracious towards us as always,and of course we recipricated by purchasing all sorts of Griott's goodies for the care and well being of our precious "R"s. After we spent a few hours at Griott's,we all sped off to a wonderful Italian restaurant,"Sortini's, in Sumner Washington,fantastic food enjoyed by all and a surprise raffle with fun gifts for everybody,yep,everybody was a winner,in all respects!!!
It's always fun meeting our fanatic friends,but what is really cool,is the newbies come as strangers and leave our group great friends,just another continuing example how these crazy unique corvette pickup's called SSR's,"R"s keep bringing more and more friends together,really cool!!
I really enjoyed talking with the new fanatics and appreciate their fresh enthusiasum for their "R"s and love of cars in general,it refreshes us all I think.
Well that's about it for now fanatics,so until we meet again,happy trails and God bless!! Hal & Toni
