Meet in Raleigh/Garner area for cruise to Vintage?
My wife and I plan to drop the kids off with my sister in law in Garner, NC around noonish on the Vintage Firday. We estimate to possibly head out by 1. Is there a place that you Raleigh guys wanna meet at for the cruise to Vintage? What are your plans for Friday?

I'd be down, but that may be a little late for us to join in. I need to take a look at the schedule of events again and see what all is happenin' on Friday. My pop and bro are coming in on Thursday night and we were all gonna roll (e28, e30, and e10) out in the morning some time.
I'll catch back up with you on it Matt, thanks for putting this out there.

I'd love to be attending (and doing the Raleigh meet up as my In-Laws are there), but this is always my Wife's birthday weekend, and she already gives in to my infantile needs the rest of the year.shagrath wrote:I figured it may be a little late. I think my wife and I can adjust our departure time a little. Maybe leave VB by 6 to be there around 9:30 or 10. That may be doable.
With that said, why not head down Thursday night, since your Sis-In-Law is there, and head to the Vintage earlier on Friday?
Hmm... I would and I might consider it... the wife gets home from school at 10pm, putting us in at around 2am. 5 hour energy time!desmofan wrote:I'd love to be attending (and doing the Raleigh meet up as my In-Laws are there), but this is always my Wife's birthday weekend, and she already gives in to my infantile needs the rest of the year.shagrath wrote:I figured it may be a little late.

no biggie! She can sleep while you man up and drive the fam down...better than getting up at 6 to make the tripdesmofan wrote:Youch, didn't realize it would be a late night departure!shagrath wrote:Hmm...

I'd still be down for it. We've done it plenty of times before. (Except I was driving Lindsey's e28 with a busted catalytic converter and stock radio. )desmofan wrote:Youch, didn't realize it would be a late night departure!shagrath wrote:Hmm...

This time I'll be driving my loud 88 while she drives the van. Tim, what time were y'all looking at for departure?

No particular time really, I just know it's hard to slow the old man down who is used to getting up early and getting down the road! I think I can hold him off a bit by taking him out to breakfast. We are planning to head to the Coliseum directly to watch some of the Auto-X and hang out. Let me know what might work and I'll try to get Chris to buy in as well.
Thinking meet up around 10 or so. Maybe even up around Chris's house to keep it easy.

Did you enter Broham? You SURE you're gonna get up that earlyclongo wrote:Lindsay and I are leaving really early Friday morning to be at the autox by 9am. I'm down for cruising together but we need to leave around 7am to make it there in time.
Just giving you a hard time. We'll figure something out. I don't car when we go as long as we get there by noon.

While I can neither confirm nor deny that you are in fact a loser, it does suck a tailpipe that you can't join the caravan! On the other hand, I am proposing a rally point of:shagrath wrote:Well this entire thread just became useless. I thought my site in law would have the day off... but she doesn't. So I won't be able to head till probably 6 pm. Dammitall!!
I'm a loser.
McDonalds off exit 287 I-40 in North Cary
on N Harrison Ave. just south of the Interstate
I'll send this through to Scott to send out for anyone else in the central or eastern NC area that want to meet. I'm thinking meet by 7 and roll out by 7:30 in hopes the Longo's can make that work!
Let's do this
