Hello Jay, Great to hear from you! Thank you very much for enlightening all of us about where the rest area is - I don't know the road THAT well, and the maps won't tell me, no matter how many times I ask them...! Don't worry, my car only has 116k and isn't meet quality compared to these other ones. If only I wasn't on such a budget... The route we'll take will be decided when we get there. The first post outlines the options. Personally, I want to do the long one... The radio's are a nice sentiment, and you should probably bring them just in case. But so far we've communicated via phone if theres an emergency or the like, and its worked well. I prefer the "follow the leader" method, and we pick a time frame to stop for whatever it is that is needed, and just trust person in front to pick a good stop. If there's mutiny and someone or multiple people have a reason to disagree, we hop back in the car and try again - probably with a new leader! Let me know if your friend from Exeter is coming when you find out, so I can post up an updated list of who's coming. Craig

Yeah, his is wingless. I'm not sure exactly where in Exeter he works though. He's got black 17" wheels for the summer and snows on his stock wheels in the winter. I think we'll both be able to make it.

I may be screwed for this now. I changed my oil this evening after my dyno pulls today. Also decided to put the bigger pulley on at the same time. When I was swapping the belts I noticed my alternator bracket was cracked. Loosening the assembly made it crack further and fall off. I now have no alternator on my car. I have spent the last 6 hours now trying to fab a new one but to no avail. I am getting up very early and taking the cracked bracket to a garage and I am going to have them weld it back. Then Reinstall my alternator shower and leave. So, I may be late but I will be there if I can get this fixed.

Do get there as soon as you can... I need ample time to drool over your engine bay and think about how to swipe that compressor on top of your intake without you noticing... >.>

Got a place to weit for me but they cant't do it till between 8 and 8:30. I am going to sleep for a few minutes until then then go have them do it. The garage is only about 10 minutes away so I should be back by 8:30 and should be able to leave around 9-915. That would put me at the rest stop at about 10:30-10:40

You sure? We waited till quarter after 12, at which point everyone was getting restless for having been at a reststop for 2 hrs with nothing to do... sorry. We hoped you would call Gaddis to let us know if something was up (or something to that affect), but to no avail. Well that being said, it was a pretty successful cruise - even though only 2/3's of the people made it. I got a TON of pictures, mainly all of the same thing, the cars on the Kangamangus taking turns with the foliage. I'll do an initial dump of the ones that are horrible/out of focus, put the rest on simplepic.net and get the linky up here as well as in Huck's calender page for everyone to look at. Had a great time guys, hope to do it again, with less tiredness from working 11pm-5am two nights and no sleep for many many moons. My thoughts for the next trip would be early November, Rt. 100 into VT. When I start getting details hammered out I'll start a new thread. Craig

Wish I read this sooner.
I've been at the garage all day, we got the keys at about noon, but it still wasn't much help. We were gonna start dragging it, but I had a hard time scratching up the underside of someone elses car. ...even if it was already a mess. I got most of it back together, just need a tie rod and a wheel&tire (you should see this thing)... it's enough to move it around now. I took the exhaust off the SVX and tweaked with it a bit. Sits in the car a little better now, but the driver tail pipe now is cocked to the side I can't win today. I'm gonna go back to mess with the trim/sound system in a bit. Gonna rip out the old legacy head unit that i was using on the "temp"... and install the carputer i had in my other legacy. I hope sicksubie is okay. Given my situation, I would have gladly thrown my welder in the leg and helped him out in exchange for riding shotgun. I should have read this thread before heading over to the shop this morning
