I'm waiting on the DGRR schedule to be posted so I can figure out our departure time. But yes, it'll be sometime Friday morning. I would like to get there a few hours before everything gets started so we can get settled in and such before things get started. I'll keep everyone posted.

As before, I would like for everyone who'll be caravaning with us to PM me their info (Name, Forum Name, and Phone #) so we don't leave anyone behind due to car problems, running a little behind schedule etc.


And no, I haven't gotten my car back yet. I went to pick it up yesterday but there were a few things I wasn't happy with so they are working to correct them. But if I don't have it in time, I'll still take my fiancé's RX-8.

Sounds good. Basically its going to be a meet/greet at Nantahala For dinner. (or somewhere close). Would like to get ther just after lunch friday to check in and unwind from all the highway pulls we will be doing on the way! (J/K) . G

Are the times still to be decided?

Lets figure out Where now.

Meet spot #1: I-26 exit 97 gas station "Exon/Evergreens"
Should take 2hr to 1hr an 30min. (if we go fast) to get to Spartanburg.

Meet spot #2: Spartanburg. Where, what exit, etc.???

Meet spot #3: Someplace in North Carolina???

Granted every place we stop we will pick up more ppl / sevens.

how bout we meet at 11 am at westgate mall in spartanburg off i-26? that should give us plenty of time to hang out and make it there around 4 ish. there is also supposed to be a group coming from other parts of NC and meeting in ashville. we could probably latch onto them and go.

Hey guys, sorry for the lack of replys here - I've been super busy at work.

Anyway, it looks like I'll get back car today!!! So,.. that's good news!

... anyway... Mason, did you want to take over and lead us up there? (I have no problems with it; just asking since you've posted about meeting up in Westgate, etc. I don't want to step on toes if you've already got things rolling.)

actually you are the first response i have gotten, but i have no problem leading. so im gonna go ahead and say 11 am at westgate mall(sears service center parking lot) and then we roll. lets get a list of people who are coming and will be showing up, so noone gets left behind.

also, i think we will probably stop in ashville to pick up a few more, but i guess we will wait and see.
