hey sorry I'm about to go into class so i didnt really read the thread

myself and another guy (v8 1st gen race car with miata irs= bad ***) are planning on leaving the clemson area around 7am saturday

 

hmmm, good point. Last time I drove up there we made it in a full tank of gas, on a miata... Thanks for the heads up! We'll definatly make a stop or two for those who need. We can aim for just outside of Ashville, or Waynesville or when ever someone is running low... which ever comes first.

 

Is this time and place still valid? I would like to join the caravan. I have not made any arrangements for staying up there yet, if anyone else is in the same boat then I am up for throwing in on a room or something.

 

yep its still on, i have a room at fontana reserved, but me, toby, and alan are staying there so far, im not sure how big it is, but if we have room, youre welcome to stay with us

 

Ok, so the Denny's on Broad River Rd. at 11am then. I appreciate the offer to crash in y'alls room, I will look for other options too though and that will be a last resort. We will def. have to stop after Spartanburg for gas, at least for me! I just got the DCOE 45 installed on my car and its running pig rich! I'm probably getting 10-15 mpg at best, but I've got some new jets on their way to me in the mail so hopefully I can tune it again before we leave. I look forward to meeting you guys, my name is DJ and I'll see ya Sat!

 

Umm ^Thats -- Denny's on Reidville Rd. Exit 22 on I-26. -- Upstate.

 

Ok so where on Broad River Rd. then?

 

columbia/charleston folks will meet at 11Am friday at exit 97 (I-26) which happens to be broad river rd too, there is a gas station there with a big parking lot. we will leave at 11:15 so dont be late!!

heres a map i just made so noone gets confused



then we will head up to the previously posted spartanburg meeting spot

 

Yeah, I knew it was Broad River Rd. from the exit #, I didn't think that was in the upstate. I was just a little confused by the earlier posts but thanks for clarifying it!. I will see you guys then. Any other 1st gens coming along for the caravan?

 

I live in Canton NC, And I am beside myself with antisipation of the DGRR.
Me and 2 of my friends are going, 3 2nd gens total. Im only about an 25 miles
west of asheville NC.

 

I cant wait too, ive never been before. i just hope my tii can hold together for the whole trip lol

 

LOL I bet we'll have at least 5 sets of metric tools with us! My concern is the freakin' gas prices and my mpg. Hopefully she will cruise and get decent mileage but I really wouldn't know. My first tank after installing the DCOE, I got about 80 miles off of it lol. Most of that was burnt up tuning it in the driveway though. The rest was on some high spirited, heavy footed "test runs"

Anyone driving behind me better have AC because my exhaust fumes will bring tears to your eyes LOL

 

I feel fortunate that it is this close to me, cause my car has a tenatious fuel appetite.
anyway Im putting my last check back,so I know ill have enough gas money. anyone
driving behind me better have ear plugs because ive blown the guts out of my Ractive exhaust GRRRRRRRRRR BLUM BLUM BLUM LOL

 

mazda.junkie, you want to meet up with us near Waynesville?

 

Hell yeah

 

There's a Shell gas station in Waynesville. On 843 Russ Ave. We can meet up there.

 

Remember, no drinking and driving, boys! You might hit a pothole and spill it all over the 7!

 

Yeah, I work like 1/4 mile from there. What time yall comin through? FRI?

 

That's an hour and a half away from Spartanburg, so let's aim for 1:30pm. I'll PM you my phone number so we can keep in touch and I'll let you know if we are running on time, etc.

 

Sounds great, It will be me and two other friend 3 cars total

 

^^ Don't forget, we're supposed to leave the Denny's in Spartanburg @ 12:30 so that would put us up there at 2, unless we're hauling some serious ***!

 

Ack! We wont have any of that now will we! Be sides... a beer is such a bad thing to waste!


<--- needs to go to bed, 12:30 + 1.5 hours != 1:30 LOL Yes your right djjr42. Thanks for checking my math lol
