Lunch tour by the river

Today 6 club guys in 5 T's met up with 2 others plus a guest at this neat riverside Pub/Restaurant in Fremont Ohio. Tackle Box 2 it's called. Ya have to drive down (and back up of course) a steep 15% grade to get to it but our cars handled it easily. Great lunch with great view and great comraderie. Then we toured around a large country side area some adjacent to the Sandusky River and adjacent swamp area. A good ride. I had 54 miles door to door, couple guys had 80 miles as they live further away.

Great to see everyone out and about! Looks like a great drive.
Also, thanks for posting clearly who is who. Too may times pics are posted with the assumption that everyone on the forum knows everyone and every car owned.

Hi Kurt, I "caint remember" what Mike has in it other than a Ruxtell. I know he can clip along at 35 but I think that's about tops and seems even WOT to boot. Def not an overdrive tranny I know that for sure. I think it has the faster rear end. Gawd I wish my former '26 TT chemical truck did cause if so I'd still have it! I got tired of everyone complaining that by the time I got to the fire at 18 mph the place burnt to the ground!! :lol: :lol:

Mike's truck definitely has the faster truck rear axle gear ratio. He told me that about 10 years ago when I drove it a short distance.

After we left the restaurant on the tour, we stopped at the Smiling Fox Forge for a very interesting 1 hour visit.
