It's on the original post of the thread . It's the Friendly's on Madison Ave in Morristown, check the 1st page for the address

 

Great question. No we don't have that mapped out and will not mainly (correct me if I am wrong but) b/c that will be hard to find and won't make sense to set us back just for one car (sorry man). On top of the fact that you'll be in the middle of nowhere at the DGRR and I doubt you'll find E85. So I would suggest mapping it out yourself and see what you find on the way down or running a map that will allow for 93 octane.

Either way, let us know what you find b/c we would still love to have you on the caravan.


The location that we are meeting at has 3 gas stations, so we'll make sure everyone is topped off before we hit the road. We will play it by year (depending on how much spirited driving will take place ) which we will try to keep to a minimum to conserve gas, so we'll shoot to stop roughly every 300-400 miles to fill up.

 

Dennis already mentioned the schedule, but for more detail:

I've found it's best arrive sometime Thursday. We get in late that night, there is nothing going on that day.

Friday is a prep/meet and greet day. You also can get acquainted with the Dragon at a leisurely place to minimize your chances of going off the side of the mountain on Saturday

The main day of the event is Saturday. Car show, Dragon runs, Fontana Dam photo shoot, etc.
Saturday night is the awards banquet and beer drinkin'

Sunday usually people have breakfast and head out. There is the skyway run for those interested, usually the more local guys do that.

 

Ill be riding down with Scrubby taking pics the whole way, so whoever ends up joining our caravan is guaranteed some nice shots of their car

 

I heard road head was on the menu, so how will you have time to take pics ?

Dan offered that job to me, but his seats are designed for hobbits and I don't fit

 

Actually he said he was gonna be switching with you Rich.... Careful John, Rich has dangerous hands!

 

To all those coming down from up North, got one word for ya...............

So who else is coming with us? Post up if you're 100% in for caravan (meaning you already registered).

Ryan

 

Allen, 13BRX3 will be riding down with me

 

I'm 100% for the caravan, but I'm having a few minor scheduling issues; I'm trying to get Ray Wilson to tune my car since I'm going to be passing right by PFS, I don't know if I should go early and meet you guys in Maryland or if I should ride down for a bit with you guys and just split off at my exit. I'd like the first option better because I would be riding with the caravan for much longer, but I think it would be difficult to coordinate what time I'm going to be finished and where we could meet.

 

Im in for the caravan...Im Rolling with 2rotorsnadream

 

ill have to meet up with you boys... should be a fun little stroll lol

 

This is what worked for us last year on the caravan:

We only made stops for fuel and for a quick bite to eat. We didn't speed like idiots, but kept to a nice consistent 70 to 75 mph the entire way.

The intent is to get there late thursday nite, have a decent nights sleep, and relax friday. We can check out all the rotaries as they arrive, enjoy the surroundings, and maybe make a Dragon run or two. It helps to take a breath and get ready for Saturday, which is the big day

I have received speeding tickets on the way down there, especially in VA where radar detectors are illegal and the cops are sneaky. Racing and swerving in and out of lanes are kept to a strict minimum (ie none), I didn't get a ticket last year and hope for the same this year.

In order to leave thursday morning and arrive that night, we'll have to spend the majority of the day on the road..... no time for scenic detours, hanging out at random rest stops etc.

So--- road warriors only need apply

 

you're lucky Rich dosen't want to atract any law enforcement attention, cause you might need a 4th rotor to keep up with me on this particular stroll LOL

 

Im definately going .


John

 

Where I'm from those are fighting words.

 

nah, Tom knows I'm just messing with him. i would need another 250-300hp to make that statement a reality

 

LOL i didnt even see these posts lol..... nah,, im just going to cruise on down.. i cant afford tickets either. No body provoke me....aka a white fd driven by a big *** dude named Roan You must fold in and out of that thing lol

 

I registered on the 14th, and they told me I get 1 night free. If we get 2 nights, I'll do the caravan down with you guys, then branch off to PFS to get tuned on Monday.

Right now consider me 100% in.

Yeah, cops suck! lol
