The cars will be inside the venue. You can't leave with them as it is an indoor show. It is also 45min from Charlotte.

Thanks Eric, it a whole lot better than my civic ex, just wished I could of afford the is350 not enough power for my taste. Took it to the blue ridge parkway this pass Sunday. Wished I had time for the tail of the dragon me n the wife was just enjoying the foliage and view and it was quiet a view, recommend it to any one. Gonna plan for grand father mountain in a few weeks hoping to try to make it to the tail of the dragon for some spirited driving.
What time are people going to tuner evo? Those who are not in the show? My in law only live like 20mins from there so didn't want to be the only one there early.

In all seriousness, I'll be hitting up C&C in the morning with Tyler. I'm not sure if Tyler wants to go to TE as well, but I'm game.

Not trying to hold you back. I was just trying to see how serious you were in your offer since it would then mean I would need the same return trip for the car as well.

If you do need someone to drive one of the cars, I'd be more than happy to help out though.

Just checked on the battery tender and the green light is flashing which means its at 80%.
And did anyone look at the new forecast for Saturday? rain and 55 for a high. -_-

Weird, Weather.com has an 80% chance of rain, Accuweather.com has 0% chance of rain.
Accuweather has the word Accurate in it, so I'm going with that one

Right now an idea I have is to take one car over Friday night. Then Saturday take the other and Megan's car. At like 12 leave and head back home and let the dogs out and have someone meet us there that is heading to the show later so we can get a ride back. Closest possible plan I can come up with so far.

Apparently two good minds think a like cause I posted that before I read your Facebook messenger post.
Except my plan was to take one of the cars down and put it inside the venue overnight. That way I didn't have any fear of anything being towed from the venue if it wasn't allowed to be parked outside.

I might be needing someone. Trying to figure out how I am getting both cars there and still making it back to my house during the day at some point to let the dogs out cause 12-13hrs in the crate is bad news.

I'll also be heading to the show Saturday a little later, so I'm fine with picking you up/dropping you off.

So the optima red top has a full charge. I then connected the battery tender to the braille and it already has a green flashing light which means its in decent shape. Once its fully charged I might try and run that for a while.

Just make sure both side of the front of the TL are in the air or you will have a struggle like I did when I installed the coilovers. I remember being very angry that day.

Looks that way - 50% chance 
But it's an indoor meet, so it'll be cool
