I won't be there. I've been in enough plants over the last few years, so it won't be anything new for me. Sorry.

 

HI!... As for the ones that showed up, we had a great time. We proceeded to the plant having a bit of sideways action due to the little bit of rain we got this morning. We had two tour guides, I can't remember the womans name but the guys name was CLAUDIO. They were very imformative and new their *****. They answered ALL our questions. The line was shut down today due to the holiday but that was even better. It wasn't too noisey and we got to go right up to the assembly line and see close up and touch things. We even got to go into the 5 cell dyno rooms and dyno tear down bays. We saw some great stuff. They even had two prototype 6.8L V-10 3-valve engines there. They were HUGE! Some of the new all aluminum 4.6 "05/06" engines. Tried to get some info on the new 6.2L *HURRICANE* engine but couldn't get much. All I was told is that it will be close to 400H.P (FLYWHEEL). After the tour we all went back to the HOT ROD CAFE and ate lunch. The service was a bit lacking, I apologise for that guys. Rain ended and it got hot and sunny out. Now I can clean my truck! LOL! On the way back from the tour, SVT STEVE and I went at it a few times. He beats me (Lightning engine) but not by as much as I thought he would. Pretty close race till he hits 3RD gear, lol! Pretty fast for N/A , STEVE? lol! Well it was good to meet you all and MABEY just mabey I'll do it again next year. Hope everyone had a same trip home.

 

Neal, I never got any more info from you? You can see on the first page ot this thread that I was interested.

HI!... Well did you ever think to look in the *CANADA* or the *EVENTS AND HAPPENINGS* section !!!!!!!!!!!!

It was also posted in the *ONTARIO CHAPTER* over at FORD TRUCK WORLD.

 

Hey Neal don't sweat it!

I didn't look over there I responded here where I read it!

Don't worry I'll be sure to let you know when we start building the New Lightning Engine here in my Plt.

HI NEAL!!

 

HI!... SUAVY : Well EVENTS AND HAPPENINGS is the proper spot to post a event. If you go there you will see it was posted there WAY before here. I figured I'd give you LIGHTNING guys a heads up on the tour and you guys turned the thread into a clusterphuk. Common sense would of looked there also. No problem. Now I know not to come here and post a really good event.

 

HI!... DEIMATT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :santa:

Neal, we Lightning Guy's as you called us appreciate a great event and are thankful.

Like I said you posted it here I answered it here.

I didn't think to look in the events and happenings I guess I slept through my 2 college degrees according to your lack of common sense comment!

Further, how did we make a clusterphuk of your thread?

To all the Lightning guy's as soon as we get the new Lightning engine launched I'll try to orcastrate a tour for us "Lightning guys."

looks to me like common sense would haved been to post a link to the events section. and you did state please post here if interested.

 

Thanks for the help Rob and congrads on the new baby!

 

 

 

I guess Neal is just mad because the Lightning community didn't show as much enthusiasm as he wanted us to.
