Oh come on, suck it up!

I did a CA to CT round trip in my miata two years in a row for an annual interweb forum bar-b-que! Eleven hours is hardly a warm up......

it's automatic.

As is SOP, I don't know what I'm doing two days from now nevermind in a few months but it does sound like a great time! It's officially pencilled in. With a 2 day event the chances are better that I'd be able to make at least one.

While I'm only 20 minutes away from Bradley I'd hate to volunteer to chauffeur Justin to or from and then not be able to make it but I'll throw it out there as a possibility. As we get closer and plans firm up I'll reassess the situation.

sounds like a good time.....I am in new fairfield(about 30 miles or so away) would be a good trip for the 500e

Well, I'm about 200 miles away in the coast of Maine, and am certainly considering it, depending on what I will have going on then (will know much better as the time gets closer).

Cheers,
Lui

i will be there if i still have my car....regretfully i need to sell it due to all the projects i have and i am moving into a new place with less garage space. Keep in mind anyone planning on coming up here to ct i have a 1993 500e for sale with 241,000 miles on it. I just had it in the shop where $3500 was put into it with out the cost of labor(friends shop)car runns real good. email if you have nay questions(gardner85@gmail.com)

Start time about 10ish.

The weather looks like its going to be good as well. Chance of T storms in the afternoon, but other than that good.

Does anyone have any of those collapsable canopy things? I have one thinking we could set a few up and set/stand under them to avoid the sun.
