**Buford®** · 10-13-2005, 08:12 PM

Not sure if I want to go now... Too big of a list. Also, not sure if I can get off of work.

**Jehu** · 10-13-2005, 09:22 PM

Well, we'll probably have a couple different groups going...like we'll all be driving at once but be grouped some what...

**ProjectWidow** · 10-14-2005, 12:49 AM

**TranceDJ06** · 10-14-2005, 01:20 AM

What are the couple different groups so far?? ya'll have them listed up yet?
I got 2-3 mile range walkie tallkies..

**Jehu** · 10-14-2005, 10:14 AM

I can get me a pair of 2-3 mile ones too.

Not sure about the groups...from what I've heard people from driftmechanics and team-integra are coming as well as ia.com but nothing about actual groups sticking together driving...

**Tiff-O-Bitties** · 10-14-2005, 01:23 PM

wha..?! Gonna miss my hamburgers for work?

**HiPSI** · 10-14-2005, 01:58 PM

if this many people actually show then the people that know the roads need to each take a group and possibly run different routes to keep things a little easier on the newer people and keep the group sizes down. 40 cars with each other is just bad news waiting to happen, 10 or less per group is hard enough to keep track of.

Since it's the day after all the halloween parties i'm gonna guess alot of people won't show..but we'll just have to see, i'm sure we can work something out to make everything go as smooth as possible.

**TranceDJ06** · 10-14-2005, 02:13 PM

ya ill probably have a big hang over..unless I decide not to do anything stupid =).

Ya..we seriously do gotta get couple groups and split up and meet at stops 2 avoid bad things from happenin, But Im sure we will all work things out n figure something out at Home Depot in the morning.

PST: IF I DONT SHOW UP THAT MEANS I HAD 2 MUCH FUN SATURDAY NIGHT

you better come! we were talking about going up there before the 30th so Adrienne can get a feel for what it's like to drive up there ... of course she's ridden with me many of times but never really drove. If you want to join us give me a call

**Buford®** · 10-15-2005, 10:20 PM

When are you planning on going?
Thursday sounds perfect. That's my next day off.

**HiPSI** · 10-16-2005, 09:41 PM

hit the loop today to check things out... lots of people up there, but early on it was nearly empty on 129. the store parking lot at the top of blood mtn was packed when i got up there, went down past vogel and hit 180, pretty empty. didn't catch any traffic until lake winfried scott and then a little more beyond Lenny's (food joint after you come out of the woods on 180). by that point it was ~1:30 when i hit Dale's, and caught a good bit of slow goers on 60 heading back toward the rock pile (under 35mph the whole way

).

BUT, i did not see a single Lumpkin/GSP officer anywhere up there today, which is generally a rare occurrence. and to top it all off i couldn't ask for better weather. can't wait for the 30th

**ProjectWidow** · 10-16-2005, 09:43 PM

yeh today was a great day.

Wish I still had my prelude to test it on the curves but if you guys dont mind a stock 98 accord going then Im still up for the 30th

**Buford®** · 10-16-2005, 10:05 PM

I just put my time in for the 30th. Hopefully I can get off. I seriously don't want to miss those hamburgers.

**drupason** · 10-16-2005, 10:07 PM

ill probably be coming with tiffany

well i think for sure ryan wants to go up there before the 30th ... There's a good chance we'll be cruising the same route as the 30th run ... maybe we'll stop at the waterfall and eat or something. we'll leave up 400 around 11:00 - 12:00. let us know if you want to meet up at the walmart or something

**Buford®** · 10-17-2005, 06:25 PM

Yes! I have that day off. I won't be missing the hamburgers!

exactly: tourists, bicycles, and cops. not saying it can't be done but normally alot better on sundays, the earlier the better.

**Nemesis** · 10-18-2005, 10:26 AM

Oh. lol. We're going on Thursday because we happen to all have that day off. And It's going to be like 0 traffic on Thursday. You're welcome to go if you'd like.

**XBLG20** · 10-19-2005, 09:39 AM

Yessir.

**Truegiant** · 10-19-2005, 09:07 PM

so the mini run is tomorrow at around 11 at the end of 400! Right?

**XBLG20** · 10-19-2005, 10:17 PM

Well now I don’t know if we’ll be going tomorrow … tonight my roommate’s car “F”ed up. We think it could be one of two problems. 1) one of his injectors is staying wide ass open OR 2) his MSD ignition isn’t firing right. Its either too much gas or not enough spark. Honestly we don’t know. So tomorrow I’m going to be driving him around and going to try and get this problem fixed

and the part I hate the most is he's only had this car for 6 months. I just hope Subaru Of Gwinnett will honor the warranty he bought and fix whatever is the problem. Who knows

**jskylinesx** · 10-19-2005, 11:24 PM

just found out today that i can have that sunday off. if ya'll got room for one more, i'd like to come too.

See if Scott can help you gus out.

**XBLG20** · 10-20-2005, 04:24 AM

I just want to give a big thank you out to Ryan, Jason and Adrian for coming out so late and then staying till 4am trying to get Matts car running. Hopfully we'll have everything fixed in the mourning so we can go on the run later in the day.

**speedminded** · 10-20-2005, 04:45 AM

Sweet, i will be in town next weekend....I thought I had royally screwed up on the mtn run scheduling! i'm not at VIR next weekend...even if i was then I would have put my car in the race trailer and pulled an all nighter driving back after the 13hr race, i think it was a 7 hr drive in the motor home last time so i can prolly do it under 6 in my car. Anyways, it is a green...whew, sigh.

Matts gotta save up for a distributor anyways but once i get the shop remodel done i'll be looking for a good deal on some speakers

...Rockin two huge Marantz 3 ways with a 12" driver up in the trusses on the garage side now and two big wall mounted bookshelf 2 ways with an 8 inch on the shop side...I'll keep the Marantz up top for bass but will be looking for a handful of cheap satellites to place all around...
