It does eventually have to end; however, you can pack a lot of fun into the week-end. Cars and racers are at the barbecue most of the day on Friday. The host motels have food and snacks in the evening and racers, car owners and builders are usually sitting around in the motel lobbies talking about "the old days" until really late on Friday and Saturday night. Just grab a seat and listen and join in the conversations. If you like the old stories you hear on MOPARTS you will have a good time until the wee hours of the morning. Sunday at the Hall of Fame induction is something that alot of people who go miss out on. There is a room set up with old scrap books. The cars are on display outside and the racers go inside and look through all of the scrap books. If you go, just go in and sit down with the Ramchargers and listen to the stories. Lunch is after the awards ceremony before everyone says their good-bys before loading up and leaving for home. If you don't already know, Hemifred is one of the inductees this year. If MOPARTS members go maybe we could all meet at some location. Not a much better place than the Reunion to get to put a face with a name.
