    Sounds good! I'll add you to the list. If you'd prefer to come down the night before and get a little rest and prep the car I'm sure we can arrange something.

    there is a campground at the venue for those who wish to enjoy the great outdoors!



    its a short haul from the rest of us ( you wont want to walk it - it will take a bit )- but next to the dam and pretty neat. I think they were like $20 a night for a spot. Its also right across from the sound off spot

    I'll try and get a list at the end of the week on who has registered so far from Kieran at LBR, I don't have direct access to the registration site but I will let you know, I'd imagine you're all set if the transaction went through.

    Could be a Volvo for all we know Looking forward to seeing the car. Let me know when you guys have registered as well.

    Just my 2 cents as a concerned citizen. I used to drive from Frederick/ Hagerstown MD off 70 and 81 up threw PA or NJ on my way to Connecticut. U will really thank me if you take the Tappan Zee as apposed to the GWB not only for the amount of traffic but the roads are UTTER DISASTER on 95, N or S.

    Althoguth u will be leaving on a Thursday, I warn you that traffic is a SOB around 4-6 coming from BMORE West towards Frederick when everyone gets back out of work.

    I would deff be dialed in to the Traffic channell and keep an eye out. Once yur on 81 it should be smooth sailing, haha

    Yeah I hear ya, I've done the GWB and Tappan Zee quite a bit, sat in traffic for 3 hours one night around 7pm to get back over the GWB

    In fact, the fuel pump in my R decided to fail in traffic about 1 mile before the GWB on my drive to Chicago, so I especially hate that bridge. Took 9 hours just to be towed over the bridge as the nearest dealer was on the Jersey side, and AAA cannot legally operate on that stretch of I-95, but they are the only ones that will go across

    We will probably take the GWB down, it will be relatively smooth sailing on a thursday at like 530-600am, and will monitor on Sunday night on the way home. Probably won't hit the bridge until 9-10pm coming back but that could be terrible timing as well.
