Nice work on the thread Steven. And kudos to Sean for getting that form together!

[quote=McCollins23;14396567]Sean, I think what he was saying is that he doesnt mind paying so he can get the shirt,stickers, etc. So people would just pay the fee and click no on each of the categories?

Yes , this is what I meant. Will probably paypal entry fee in next few days. Probably should get a hotel room reserved too.

This is true! We are maybe thinking of coming down on Thursday morning because then we could potentially catch the Twins vs. Royals game on Thursday night!

You guys are slacking on signing up

Even if you are not intending on paying the registration fee, it is still a good idea to register for the meet for "head count" purposes. We need to have a good idea on who is doing what for the dinners/karts, and Jay Wolfe would probably like an accurate count on who is attending.

Sign up and claim your spot, only takes a couple of minutes. But keep in mind, don't register unless you are certain that you are attending.

Im waiting for the crank bearings. They are back ordered and Acura has no expected ship dates. The dealer was going to use a customers vin to help speed up the process(ie help move me to the front of the line). Painting wont take me long. A big caravan from WI/IL would be nice

Chicago usually rounds up just about 6 cars to take the trip... The we meet up with Brett, and head out there... We usually go out of our way to scoop up Brett at the Gas Station...

Its a lot of fun... Would be dope if we some how meet up with Minnesota crew too...

so im curious. you guys that have a long drive and are gonna be in a caravan, do you plan on staying together the whole trek? Or just start out hard and roll deep together at first, then kinda fizzle out? I mean bathroom breaks, food, gas etc... That would make it impossible to stay together right??? I ask because I have never taken part in anything like that, and I just don't see everybody making every pit stop together lol

Well, driving a TL you are only gonna make so far before needing fuel due to a small gas tank.

And the fun of a convoy is staying together. If its a big convoy some cars may make it to the back.

And question about the hotel, if you click the link on the first thread all the info is in there.

They all stay together and go back together. That is part of the fun.
