25 years old next year! :cake: Any ideas? Thoughts? Comments? The BPG (Buick Performance Group) always welcomes us in Ohio. I'm sure I could have them make up some awards for us as well. It's up to you guys and gals if you want to maybe meet up somewhere. I have reached out to Scott Kelly as well. So let's toss it around and see where (if anywhere) it goes! :beach:
 
I say we just celebrate the entire year! Something would be cool and I am thinking of doing something in Chicago this summer maybe since there seem to be many TTA's here.
 
Chicago would be cool.

Indy would be great but I think cost will be an issue ..

Detroit? Visit the old sites of PAS (not much there) and I'm sure we could get many more of the GM and PAS engineers attending? I can get Bill Owen and a few other guys presenting / attending.

City of Industry? But not much there for an event :-(

Pheasant run in St Charles Illinois would be nice. Pontiac Nationals there and other Pontiac show across the street at dupage grounds. In Chicago way too expensive...

They had the Fiero club show up this year, maybe we can talk them into the TTA club being featured at the show. Maybe we can start asking.
 
Last time I was in detroit to pick up a TA
1) the owner wanted to know if I wanted to gas up down the block...he had a shotgun in the house
2) in the middle of the day there were stuctures on fire....fire

Sure everybody would like to leave with their TTA and life for that matter

The Woodward Dream cruise doesn't actually take place in the City of Detroit. Everywhere but actually!

wow talk about all over the place! lol Well that's why I posted to see what you guys and gals come up with. The TA nats look at the TTA's like the bastard step child. I had reached out to them for the last event and got the cold shoulder so someone else would have to try and deal with them. The reason I suggested BPG in Ohio is because I know they will make some awards for us for stock and modified cars and it's at a race track with other turbo Buick's racing. They would even make a race class if enough interest. Keep posting! :)
 
BPG at National Trail works for me!! I would most likely attend the event elsewhere, but probably the TTA would stay home.

Doesn't surprise me the TA Nats gave you the cold shoulder. That is a strange clicky show. I heard that 2014 may be their last year as the current organizer(s) wants to basically retire from it.
 
The Pontiac Nats is held at Summit Motorsport park in Norwalk OH every August. Ames Performance is a big sponsor and Pete Woodruff is the organizer. They are very good people and love all Pontiacs. The Firehawk people hold a rally there every year and at one time the Fiero club had a sub-show there. They would welcome the TTA there I am guessing. Also the drag strip there is tops. NHRA holds finals there.
 
If you guys want BPG nationals in Ohio I just need to know by the first of the year. I make the official fliers for them so I would add on a TTA 25th reunion to it to promote it. Like I said I can have them give us some awards and judge our cars for a car show on Saturday. I'm on the board of directors with them so we have some inside control as well. ;) I'm up for anything anywhere I just thing that venue will have the most it can offer us. Keep the ideas coming!

I'm in wherever, I had a blast in Hebron,OH. It was great meeting Jim, Jason and his dad, Jan and Fred, Rich, Rob, Phil, Mike, Kymmee...................and many more.
.
I will make the trek to whatever place we decide to go.

If its close, I'll drive. If it's out there enclosed trailer.

It sure seems like we need to go to Indy. We need to make a few laps.

i tend to agree. logistically the POCI event in Wichita is ideal. it could be another co-vention event like Dayton.... but i like kymmee's idea of Norwalk. its nothing but Pontiac!.....
