Default Expo: Who's Going From MD/DC/VA Area?

I am planning my possible trip to the expo. Who else is going from my area, maybe we could caravan together on the trip?

Ed, are you driving out to the expo?

Email me at ginadunn@mindspring.com if you want to coordinate...

Yes, ... Dear!

It's a done deal for me.
... list of confirmed entrants for the Expo:

Name -- Honda-Tech Screen Name
Ken Sax - nsxtcjr
Wes Moore - White Dragon
Edward Sackley - sackdz
Jason Franza - Darth VadeR
Edward Pipala - zygspeed
Jeff Goodnow - Budman
Jim Lorenzetti - Batoutahell
Jim Sullivan - ?
Leo Kovok ? - ITRinEJ1

Though, I was considering going the "long way".
Depending on whether or not my turbo motor and accessories are going to be installed by then.

I am planning my trip now, so that I can go. When are you leaving for the expo? I cant take off too many days of work, so I am trying to plan everything out now.

Also there is camping alloud at the track. I think some of the FL/NC crew might end up doing that to save some cash and to keep the kegerator/tv/playstation company at night

Sounds good.
What might you be driving?

Also, ... which way is the NC crowd going?
Though, I was planning on stopping by my Mom's in Youngstown on the way out (or back).
Another thing? ... AVG anticipated SPEED?

Just thought of something.
The traffic situation that weekend (Memorial Day) is going to be Fukt up!
Especially leaving the DC area on Friday.

Friday berore Noon would be cool, though.
Now I remember why I hat caravans!

I don't see any point getting there before Saturday, sometime around check-in time.
That already leaves everyone a day or two to get acquainted and what not.
Then again, I've got Fridays off anyway.....

And, I forgot.
You drive pretty much the way I do!

I've got it down to a 4 hr drive to get to Youngstown from Old Town. ~305
That's not too bad an average for a holiday weekend drive, w/Troopers and fuel/rest stops.

Yeah, I think we can make it happen.
Anyone else?

Yeah we do drive similar

I would like to leave on Friday and take some time to get there.... maybe crash overnight somewhere on Friday on the way... I dont know.... what do you think? Or we could leave early Saturday morning to get there saturday night, but I prefer getting there a little earlier than that.... but it doesnt really matter to me... what do you think Ed?

Early is good!
I'd like to get to South Haven in the daylight.

Maybe stop somewhere interesting, half way on friday.

Gotta sign off for the day.
You have my e-mail addy, Gina.
Puts a smile on my face seeing that the "Type R Chick" is going to be making the show (and that you didn't sell the car).
