Assuming i can make it, I would be coming down from the San Fransisco area. Pleasanton, to be more specific, at the intersection of 580 and 680 I live like right on it.

There will be an I-10 TX/NM caravan for sure. I would think that there will be a I-40 N. TX/NM caravan joining the I-10 at Phoenix as well.

naa... don't be lazy and just drive the Rx! just make sure you do have the peace of mind it will last the trip which isn't so rigorous if you think about it since most will be freeway miles. just cruise it on partial throttle and save yourself a lot of gas too.

You might not be. I know someone who's thinking of driving their Cosmo (the RX-5 variety) from Naples. I will be flying, however.

I have started the three major caravan threads for people driving in on the West Coast, Las Vegas and via I-10.

Please chime in on your respective thread. If there is need we can start some additional threads, but let's try to focus our resources into these three if possible.

We need people from each area to step up and take the helm for each of these drives.

I-10 Caravan - https://www.rx7club.com/showthread.p...90#post4475890

Now there's the SPIRIT! I can't believe their aren't more RX-8 owners driving out from the East Coast. I mean... come-on. Just set the cruise on 90 mph, stop every two hours to top off with gas and Starbucks, and you're there in 3 days.... 2 days if you have alternating drivers .

If I lived on the East Coast and drove an NA I wouldn't be worried about driving. Especially if I had the vacation time.

Oh yea.... before I forget. Coming from Phoenix with 20-30 of my closest rotary friends. Rolling two wide and 10 to 15 deep down I-10 into the LA Basin.

I'd love to drive one year, I just can't do it while I'm still in school. So, assuming there's a Sevenstock 10 in 2007, I might just drive.

I was thinking about driving out for this if I get the vert cleaned up and running. I might bring my GXL, but I don't know if I would trust it on that kind of a drive (coming from PA). I don't mind taking a week off of school and work but man, that's like 2600 miles or so.. ouch.

Sent to RCCAZ members earlier today:

Below you'll find a tentative schedule of events for Sevenstock weekend. I'll be assembling a caravan list, so please RSVP at your earliest convenience to tell me if you'll be joining the Caravan as we cruise to Sevenstock 8.

Friday, October 7th - Depart for SevenStock 8 by 7:00 a.m. from the Northeast corner of I-10 and Litchfield Road. Approximate drive time (with 2 stops) 6 to 7 hours. Arrive in Irvine between 3 and 4 p.m. (possibly at R&D... still TBD). Depart for Hotel check-in (approximately 5 p.m.). Head out for dinner and attend JDRF Sevenstock 8 fundraiser.

Saturday, October 8th - Head over to R&D facility EARLY (suggest you be there between 7 and 8 a.m. to line up). Gates open at 9 a.m. Attend SS-8 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Following event, head over to Hilton Hotel for RX-7 Forum and "Big List" Reception from 5 to 7 p.m. SevenStock 8 Dinner/Banquet from 7 to 10 p.m.

Sunday, October 9th - Attend Sunday TBD event. Following event, free time to hang out, head back to hotel, catch dinner, or whatever you desire (i.e., head to the beach, etc). Some will be heading back to Arizona following the Sunday event, so find out who's heading back when and pair up if possible.
