TwEaK

 

Sunday or Monday
Id prefer not driving at night

Simons plan sounds ideal since activites start Friday
I prefer cruising tho with a group esp with those with better lighting than mine

 

I will be driving up keep in mind were going to check into a hotel 6 or so hours into the trip. That will give the car & myself a break this is going to be sweet : )

 

my car would def make it and back.. i asked because i didnt know what other ppl were doing

Cuban time can be like 10 diff times lol

i light up the streets like xmas lol

 

Ill prob be right behind you then

 

I will make this trip Chris. I will drive my FC and Moose, My bright *** HID's will def illuminate the night

 

i'm driving mine too...

is there a deadline to register for this event?

 

I found a truck, I may get 9 mpg but i def got a truck (its my neighbors, he doesnt drive it), now i'm looking into a trailer.

 

whats everyone doing about rooms? i'm not so good looking stuff up on the internets.

everyone is staying there. lots of activites and plenty of rotorheads around

Uhaul rents single trailers for a decent price

BEWTEW are you going to caravan with us? if so can you round up the orlando crew and we can set a time and place to meet up? let me know

simon

ok so, still figuring out who's driving their FD up there from Miami?

 

I'll drive if we do 6hrs rest, then drive the other 6 & providing I wont be the only one.

 

Jose....you coming for sure right? Stop by ATL and rest, we can all caravan up from there!

 

Yeah man, most likely that's what we'll do, but only if my car can sleep in the garage lmao...
