Rumors Posted April 17, 2013 Report Share Posted April 17, 2013 Same here. Pulled car out of garage and same things done...too funny (EVEN FOUND SHORTS) SEE YOU IN TWO DAYS SCOTT AND REST IN THREE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gt67 Posted April 17, 2013 Report Share Posted April 17, 2013 The I 75 route through Atlanta on Sat. has 0% chance of rain behind the cold front and the 95 route has 50-80% on the warm side. I don't care if the Boss gets wet, I 'm more concern about those other drivers on wet dangerous roads. It would be a lot nicer spending the day in the sun. I know it's a little early and the front could pass through quicker but something to think about. Don't forget the jackets like this little guy did.

Rumors Posted April 17, 2013 Report Share Posted April 17, 2013 Living in Michigan our summer stuff gets put away and the big flannels come out around October. Too damn old to wear shorts in the winter anymore. Yes Scott, remember to bring a jacket along with the badanna and glasses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SGT/SC2873 Posted April 19, 2013 Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 Scott, looks like a wash for me. I talked to Carl last night and to told him I needed to get back to work on the brakes. Got the rears done and started on the fronts....omg, I knew I beat the hell out of them, but not this bad. LF, one of the pistons is chipped/cracked, all 4 boots are toast...needless to say, I am online trying to find new calipers. Tracking is expensive! You guys have fun and above all, be safe!

Rumors Posted April 19, 2013 Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 I have come to the conclusion that Scott and I will be last to arrive, therefore I have purchased a 12 year aged bottle of Canadian Gibsons. :tequila: Even though right outside the parking lot entrance I will to make sure Scott is last.............LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stngfever Posted April 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 As long as I can get cliff moving early enough, we'll likely roll into boone between 6 & 7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gt67 Posted April 19, 2013 Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 See you at 830AM in Yulee.... As Vic would say, "Don't be late"..... 215 miles divided by 65 MPH = 3.3 hrs ( should average 75 -80 most of the way though) and one 5 minute get rid of coffee break should put me in Yulee by 8:15. That should make Vic happy. I will need to gas up in Yulee. Jim, we are in for one hell of a great ride up to Boone. :happy feet: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
07gt500conv Posted April 19, 2013 Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 I was figuring on "topping" off in Yulee as well.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rumors Posted April 19, 2013 Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 Too funny Scott. Depends on how many smoke breaks we take along the way and how many times Scott gets pulled over and ticketed since I always let him lead, because it makes him feel good......

gt67 Posted April 19, 2013 Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 As long as I can get cliff moving early enough, we'll likely roll into boone between 6 & 7. Us Florida guys won't fall for that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gt67 Posted April 19, 2013 Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 Good news... looks like we will be behind the squall line moving to the East. Might have a few showers early morning and then clear skies up to Boone (VFR). T- Storms just arrived here with strong wind and lighting and they should go through Jacksonville tonight.

2007_Shelby_GT Posted April 19, 2013 Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 I'll try and arrive at McDonald's early and talk to the manager - maybe block off some spaces for everyone. Including me and David as escorts, that makes 6 right? Sam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VNMSNK Posted April 19, 2013 Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 Jim & Vic, let me know when you expect to roll in through St. Aug and I'll try to catch you on 95 and follow you into Yulee. Debating if I am will drive the GT-H so you can see what she needs, but in all likelihood will drive the GT500. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
