Guys,

I spent a few hours over at Rob and Anita’s house tonight spending some time with Anita and one of the things mentioned was that everyone is offering anything to help her out. I want to let everyone know her exact words to me were “If they could do anything, I would like ALL of his car buddies to attend my husband’s memorial service, because he would greatly want that". I know a lot of you already plan on it but it will be helled- Sat. March 26, 2011 at 2:00 pm at “Steward / Baxter Funeral Home on 1st Ave NE. I don't know if you guys wanted set up something to ALL meet up and go as one big racing Family i think that would be pretty awesome and Rob would really love that. If i Had it my way I would love to do a john force burnout in front of the place for a hour in my Camaro for Rob. Obviously that’s not going to happen with cars not finished or not tuned yet so anything we can do to come together and show a great man our support would be awesome!

Post away and let’s get something together to all meet up and go as one big enthusiast family

I'd really like to go, I didn't know him other than on here but I feel I should go. I don't have a cool car to show up in or do a burnout as A tribute in but I will definitely try to get a few hours off to get out there.

good idea, i think we should try to bring our sports cars if possible. otherwise if they are down just bring your daily.

I know a few of us are going to that wedding too, but we arent actually in it Eric, so idk what time you have to make it. I can show up late.

But we should meet up yea, I like that idea.

when my ex's brother in law passed away we did a line of hot rods from the service to the cemetary and then did burnouts leaving the cemetary

Yeah, same here..

If I could make it back home by 4 I'd probably be okay.. I'm going to keep looking for someone to cover for me, got a couple people to ask yet.

I am going to try to make it but being there by even 2 will be a challenge. If weather permits I want to make it out in the Cobra. Little tribute to Rob.

I'll hopefully be there in the truck if Trevor doesnt break the tranny again!

Typical attire is slacks, dress shirt, tie. You can't be over dressed.
