Lame excuse TTT, if the GF isn't ready to go you go solo or drag her along caveman style whether she's ready or not.

Well, she's graduating law school in May, and skipping an entire day of classes is possible and likely, but there is the chance that she may need to attend, in which case we'll just leave ~11 that night.

It's not... we've come home that way (Front Royal, Woodbridge, and Culpeper respectively).

We've made this trip 5-6 times over the years and the easiest/fastest route is usually 81 to 23 torwards Asheville... we've also gone 81 to 77 to 40 which wasn't bad...

If you were leaving earlier, you could follow down... we'll see you there though. I'm shocked at the lack of NOVA representing at this event. There are a ton of local guys, but maybe they're falling off these days... who knows (I don't even attend events like I used to locally)...

First off - I had no idea Chris and Kyle were brothers, lol...

Secondly.. Mazda6??? Where did this come from? They do make good DDs though, but not as good as an '04 RX8 with over 190WHP reliably...

we are leaving out of Mytle Beach Thursday morning will be going thrugh ashville area not sure what time we will have two or three cars, this is our fith year for DGRR and the first time leaving from here last year we car up with the Atlanta caravan We were living Florida and have driven from Ohio you never know where we will be. but hope to meet up with some of you on the way

Fendamonky · 03-24-2012, 04:08 PM

I've got some people flying in for this (from England) on Thursday. I think they should be arriving at Dulles around 10-11am.

If possible I'd love to catch the Caravan down with them!

I'm also going to see if I can't round up some more of the Northern Va guys to come down for this!

JL1RX7 · 03-24-2012, 06:24 PM

Levi let me know when its closer and I can get you back to the gate. I am switching to graveyard but normally I am out at Dulles.

Fendamonky · 03-25-2012, 06:47 PM

^ Dude, that would be awesome!

Depending on what time the convoy passes through our area I think I may try to link up with it and travel down en masse.

I think by around 10-11 we'd want to be more out to the Front Royal area...

JL1RX7 · 03-26-2012, 04:01 PM

I am going to put in for a day off on that Friday. Unless the project is behind it shouldn't be a problem. I might split with you guys and head straight to Knoxville. If I don't stop and say hi to mom she might kill me.

Yeah, we're going to miss the convoy down. I misunderstood what their flight schedule looked like, it turns out that they won't be landing at Dulles until 1pm. So yeah, we'll be several hours behind you guys =(

When were you planning on leaving the area?

you working on the space shuttle transport project?

JL1RX7 · 03-29-2012, 04:36 PM

Levi, it depends if I take friday off or not. I always have a place to stay at mom's which is about 30 or 45 minutes from the dragon so getting in crazy late isn't too much of an issue. Plus I better go spend at least lunch with her otherwise I might lose that free place.

We3rx7, no not working on the shuttle project. I work on the building controls out at the airport. But I do plan on being out at the end of the runway in the company truck with my camera when the shuttle comes in on the 17th. One of the perks is all access pass to the property.
