Oh, and if it matters, I'm bringing my father. We're probably going to make him drive the children up in the BSP while Cory and I hang out childless in the TCM. Yay!

Thanks...I just didn't know if I was missing something.

Today my body physically & mentally shut down...I realized...after stopping at a green light and not figuring out why people were honking. Got a ride home and then took a long nap to boost my head but still a little "slow".

I'll add 1 hour and call that people need to arrive at Smokey Point by 11:30 to head out by 11:45 am.

Everyone go to the meetup and post up your rsvps! We have people lurking there that are not SLers and they need to know that us cool folks are all going!!!

It only takes about an hour from Smokey Point to Concrete, unless you plan to go shopping in Burlington or something. Were people planning to arrive at 1 p.m.?? We were expecting everyone at 2 when we open. (although we could arrive an hour earlier if that is the plan.... since the plans are moving along.)

even the best laid plans get kicked back, and I'm sure somewhere along the way we will be delayed for a few mins. here or there, happens to the best of us, lol, and if we get there early then we will get the best parking, lol.

mocascion

I'm sure there will also be bathroom and gas stops...we plan to be there at 2 pm. If we get there early we'll all hang out and enjoy the scenery!

mattvs

haha how the hell do i end up on all of these lists?

I should be able to make it though.

mocascion

You better be there!!!

I want to see your Evo smoke the tCs that are going

Adorian

Hey now! thats not very nice

mattvs

haha. hopefully ill have time to get it washed saturday...and it better be nice on sunday, god help you if it isn't nice on sunday. :p

mocascion

Wait...I forgot...Allie's back in town...and Erik's coming up for this...we may just have a competition yet...but we'll keep it legal for this event because of the # of cars and the slow, casual drive nature of the thing.

But...we should find a track day coming up and talk Matt into taking the Evo out to race the tC crew.

Matt???

Adorian

Yes but Allie got her one and only speeding ticket ever so shes behaving herself now.

And Erik is riding in Allies car because Allie really wants to drive her car... and Natalie is riding with us too

mattvs

I might be up for something once I get myself tuned. Running untuned doesn't allow me the full potential of my mods.

I won't lie though, I'd probably suck at it the first couple of times, as I've never purposefully raced the car around a course or on the strip.

The potential is there though. I also won't lie there either. With the same exact modifications, there are drivers who've managed to trap low 12 second quarter miles at the strip.

I've been meaning to look up some performance driving courses, but I between work and, well, work related trips, I haven't been able to find the time.

If I do manage to pull myself out of bed on Sunday to make the drive, I'll keep it as sane as I can :p I do love how my car roars at WOT though...

I have a feeling that the Smokey Point rest stop crew are going to have a bit of quality time before any of the rest of you show up.

Heh, at least we'll have bathrooms and if we're lucky, free coffee, lol. Mattross, I still plan on bringing you a white coffee though so don't over do it on the cheap brown stuff.

mattross

10-4 jenna I look forward to the white coffee. I don't really like pizza, I'm just coming for the white coffee. J/k I love Pizza.

Ok, so just to make it clear, the meet-up time for the Smokey Point people has bumped up an hour from 12:30 to 11:30? Sounds fine to me.

Awsome! 11:30 then it is...BTW Erik isn't driving? Erik is riding B---? THATS AWSOME!!!!

BCS

40% chance of rain on Sunday. Booo. I really want to drive the S too. Maybe it'll clear up.

robbiej

gee Brian, didn't they give you a top for it, lol, j/k. There is one the same color as yours on a lot here in town, me likey.

Guest

all right so we bump it back to 11:30am at smokey point, that will give us plenty of time to get everyone there and have a great photo opp and bathroom breaks and the brown coffee swill they provide at the rest stop. Maybe i will stop by and get a couple of those Starbucks coffee carafts thingys to help stay offthe really awfull rest stop stuff.

Adorian

you stop your laughing right now! I had to nag forever to get him to cave on this!
