Caravan to OGTA meet
I figured I'd start this thread to get everyone coordinated on driving down to the OGTA lakeside meet. See this thread for the details. Its Saturday June 7 at Crits lakeside house. I hope we get enough folks to out number the OGTA and their 12As
We need to decide:
1. The target arrival time and work backwards from that to determine meet up times along the way. I'm thinking show up no later than noon oclock at the lake.
2. What spots we will meet up to pickup the crew as we motor down there. So far we need a spot at I77/I85 thats easy to get into and back out onto I85. Down in Spartansburg if Mike (rxtasy3) is going there's a spot on I85 we can drop off easily. Remember a good spot needs to be somewhere that will allow us to all park easily together and get in and out together.
3. Parts swapping. What parts do folks have or need.
4. How to get there. Heres one way. This starts from Huntersville (of course ).
5. Who all can we expect to be going. Lets get a list going on this. So far its

If you guys want to make a longer day of it, you're welcome to. I'll have everything setup around 10am and just might take the boat out if nobody's shown up. If y'all want to get down before noon, you're more than welcome.

Crit, I'm down for that but some of these guys have a hard time getting up early I figured noon was a realistic goal for most of the group.
Like I said I have a lot of toon piloting experience, had one for 16 years right up until we moved down here last year. I'm looking forward to it. Thank your parents for letting us meet up there for us all.

Anyone going down in this caravan PM me with your cell number if I don't already have it. The night before we head out I'll PM the full list of numbers to everyone so we will all have each others cell numbers for the ride down.

So far we have 3 to 4 cars coming down. 1 SA, 2FB, and 1 FC or FD (Dave?) I need to go out and see around I77/I85 we can meet up. Not down there much but there should be something thats an easy in/out for us.

i'll be in the FC. The tires are not going to be here in time. i plan on taking the FD to Zoom-fest in July though.
The only place I can think of off I 85 is on Freedom Dr. Exit 34. Head towards Charlotte. At the first light on the right side there is a dollar general or everythings a dollar with a big lot. Acces to 85 re-entry is pretty straight forward as far as anything along 85 goes. Just a thought that i had.
Looking forward to the drive and day at the lake
