When he gets back we can hook up at his place, do some mods on the FD (Or your car?) and figure a route down...

it'd be cool to go but first i need to get my car in better shape. i don't think it would make the 5K drive there and back with such bad seals. maybe in a few years when the car goes like a champ.

Awesome find. We really need to sit down and plan this route. Also need to post when we are leaving so we can all meet up.

Buggy you can stay at my place the day before as you will have a long drive. I'm assuming we will leave rather early tuesday morning.

I cannot wait. The drive through the blueridge parkway will just be as good as the DGRR!

Yup. That is the way we should go. For sure will have to leave very early to miss the whole traffic thing. So we can leave tuesday? We should have a meeting spot maybe in the states?

I got your pm but as I said earlier in the thread I'm broke for a bit. I had two weeks without work and that's about $1400 that I'm out and I'm only just getting mu first paycheck of the year tomorrow. Until I'm sure I dont need the money I cant spend anything on the trip.

I don't think I'll be able to make it this year.
Gonna need some time to recover from the Florida trip.

I think some of us might do 7stock this year... depending on budget and time.

Have fun guys! Take lots of pics.

Booked the time off work. I booked the whole week off before the event and monday, tuesday of the next week. My plans may change though if my girlfriend decides to come with. Then we will drive down separate and take I75. She can't spare that much time off of work.

^Cool! I would assume that if Joe makes it last minute he'll be taking that route as well. Might get a small caravan together yet.

Well this sucks but I just recently started a new job so I will not have any vacation time accrued to take this trip. Sucks to miss it twice in a row.
