locost7018 Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 I swore I would never put on another one of these but no one has stepped up to do this so I guess I will have to do it. 2018 Midwest Se7ens Gathering will be in NW Arkansas sometime in May 2018 (it will NOT be on the weekend of the third Sunday). So look at your calendars and see what Thurs- Sun you have available and let me know. I will go down in February or March and start scouting out roads, eateries, and lodging with Caterham driver John Styers. Russ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Currently we are looking at a Friday run of either 224 miles (long run) or 166 miles (short run) and a Saturday run of 273 miles (long run) or 174 miles (short run). With smaller runs on Thursday ans Sunday for those who want to go on those. Host motel will be the Ramada Mountain Home. I have not talked to them about group rates yet.

locost7018 Posted April 13, 2018 Author Share Posted April 13, 2018 Well folks it is less than a month until the gathering. I have had a few notes on people coming but would really like to see more.

locost7018 Posted April 18, 2018 Author Share Posted April 18, 2018 Well tomorrow marks three weeks to go until our Gathering. I know there are some fence post sitters out there so hurry up and make your decision. Right now we have 7 Se7ens, 2 Corvettes, 2 Goblins, 1 350zx, and an original Mini coming. Going to be quite a crowd. Russ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NVP66S Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 I had hoped to make it, but can't this year. Dang. It's a 12 hour drive each way, my GF can't get off work, and I just declared my Westfield not roadworthy. It's the first problem I've ever had, which is that the Brit rubber parts are dissolving into the DOT3 Castrol that I used to fill the system. I thought (wrong, it seems) that the days of brit rubber needing special brake fluid were over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xcarguy Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 Russ, I’ve held on to very last trying to align family commitments and work schedule for the Gathering. However, it’s just not meant to be this year. And it’s soooo close to me. Maybe next year. Shane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
