Righteous. Tim, if you wanted to make the trip up that would be awesome. Where are you coming from?

Yes, Porky's and University Ave. are both big car guy spots, but with any amount of people thinking their car is the shit there is a lot of racing that goes on there too, so yes, its pretty heavily partolled. We'll keep it at a creep though, and we shouldnt have any problems. Once I can get a camp ground for sure (in like 3 weeks) I can post the addresses of Porky's, E85 fill up spots, the campground, and whatever else people want to know so you can mapquest or whatever. I think any out of towners should maybe invest $4 in a map of the twin cities, hell even I will.

I'm looking forward to this guys, I just hope I have DSMlink and the 1000's for E85 before then, Premium is $4.11 per gallon up here compared to $2.96 per gallon E85. Sure the milage once on E85 will drop some, but I'm ok with that if I only have to pay $35 to fill up compared to $50, especially if I can lean burn on the highway.

Western NY. Should take the same time to get there as the time it would have taken to get to the South meet.

Sounds like you'll have a few more hours than me. Where abouts in Western New York you coming from?

tfoti · #**124** 05-26-2008, 09:09 PM

Jamestown. About 70 miles south of Buffalo.

Oh shit, your only about 30 miles away from me. lol... That being the case, if your headed to the meet for sure, we could caravan together up that way if you want to. 2 DSM's on the highway are more fun than just one. lol

Bri you still stopping up here along the way? 3 DSMs are even more fun together then.

Of course. I'm already off of work that Friday, Saturday and Sunday as my normal days off. I'm going to also request off Thursday, Monday and Tuesday and that gives me 7 days off so I'm not rushed to get there and I'm not rushed to get home either. What day is everyone heading up there? I will probably leave here Thursday afternoon to avoid traffic or Friday mid-morning... Haven't decided yet. I figure Chicago will have a lot less traffic if I'm coming into it at night.

Ah ok... Well then I guess that means I'll be leaving here Thursday sometime so I can be there by Thursday night sometime to get a little bit of sleep before we head up the rest of the way from there. Will that work? It's about a 7 hour drive to Chicago from here and I don't wanna have to go much further than that in just one straight stretch. lol

david-b · #**131** 05-28-2008, 12:14 AM

Dude that's fine. I'll be home from work at like 6:30 or so Thursday night, so whenever you get here you get here. We can chill out here, maybe BBQ for a lil or do something Chicago. Then Friday morn or whenever we can head out.

Tim you're more than welcome to crash at my place too. Only got 1 bed and a futon, but my pizza carpet is VERY comfortable. I got a lot of quilts to sleep on too.

And you guys know with 3 of us, drafting will work great on the expressway, especially with switching off. Save us all some gas.

Thanks man. Sounds like a plan if all is well and I can go. I will know for sure as we get a little closer to the actual weekend.

david-b · #**135** 06-10-2008, 01:30 PM
