Pretty sure most of us have that one figured out :D

I may be in a rental car or with Treeman.  Turning my car over to the body shop on Tuesday, the 7th.
Ah, but now I REALLY miss the fact that I cannot make it. :)

Good luck with the body shop, 2k.

Not like I didn't make it obvious, Critter figured it out after my second post.

Chuckdoc knew too but decided to keep quiet.  Of course Joe always wishes I would keep quiet.

By the way, I am at koons of manassas getting pcv valve replaced.  If you want to play hooky, I was going over to manassas battlefield.

Sounds like fun. Unfortunately, I have to drive to Crystal City with my top down. :D

Have fun at Koons. The "home" of my Solstice! ;)

Work vs fun?  No way he would pick work.   If Earl does not change course, I will have an indoor swimming pool.  Bring suits and towels and drinks.

I will be there, look forward to meeting everyone, anyone coming in from the North (Rt 66), I can lead you on a fun road out to 17 then to the meeting spot, take about an hour or so, fun drive. From the east 95 is your easiest.

I am IN and looking forward to it.  Been getting the itch to do a run.  This will scratch it.  I'd also like to take the twisty rout from 66 to the meeting spot.  Please tell me where and when to meet.  Thanks.

I am on the far side of Manassas from Gilligan's, where are you coming from? There is a Bob Evans just off 66 that is a good spot to meet, it is on 234, easy to find, most GPS should find it

Found it.  10830 Promenade Ln.  That's perfect.  What time shall we meet up?

I'm game. Can you bring the laptop and try the new tune as well?


I like to do a Gilligan's Pier September 12th at 1100.

We would meet at the Wawa gas station (275 Butler Road, Fredericksburg, VA) and depart to ride the great twisty road 218 towards 301, cross into MD and over to the restaurant.

I know for some of you it may be an out of the way start, but to others it's an out of the way end.  It's about 1hr 45 to the meeting place for me.

Neat. We thought this was just a driving event. Is it also a mod meet?

Yeah.  Let's do a group brace and OCC install somewhere in MD.  Where could we do such a thing.....? :)

Sure Duck, we can put your tune back on.

Spartan, I'm not getting the brace.  Probably the OCC when it comes out for both cars though.

Sorry folks, I am not going to make it, offer to go to Myrtle Beach sounded a lot better.
