Robert & Mary, this sounds interesting. Gary

[southwind25]

Gary, we will be driving right past your exit...come join us? we should be by sometime between 9:30 and 9:45 just join on up?

[gjslutz]

Bob, it sounds interesting, I sent a copy to Ron Schneider, and he would be interested in doing the drive in his new Elise also.

I just need to put mine back together again, and will be if all goes well.

[southwind25]

GREAT!! thanks Gary... all i have to do is get this starter problem solved.

We will take another car if it comes to it.

[gjslutz]

I just got mine running today. My mainshaft in the gearbox sheared on a 4th to 5th shift
@ max RPM. It then got a valve.

[gjslutz]

Just advise the exit, Bolivar? I'm about 15 min. from there.

[southwind25]

Gary yes...you should see us comming down 77, right now we have 2-7's, an esprit, an elise, and a 911 porsche.. might have a couple others as well, we wont know until that morning. We will stop at our jumping off point further down 77 and we can give you a directions packet. hope you have a navagator?

Due to the recent incident up in cleveland we will keeping things at a spirited but reasonable pace. We dont want any police roadblocks on this "tour"...

robert , unable to attend tour, but interested in hearing details about recent "incident" in cleveland area . thanks, glenn

[southwind25]

Glenn...sent private message.

[glenntwincam]

robert, thanks for info , again sorry we can't make the 400, much to do before trip to LOG , say HI to everyone and have a safe & sane event, glenn

[gjslutz]

Robert, can you give me a call as you get to Canton? cell: 704-5686.

It will be around 50' and I have no roof or heater.

Navagator? Mine is very weak, what kind of event is this a rally?

If it is wet down south, there is an aviation event I will likely do as I never miss it. My A/C has a heater & roof.

[southwind25]

We can call you as we get close.

Gary, we thought you had an awesome top custom made for the new rollbar?

The event is not a "ralley" that needs a navigator, it's a tour that a navigator would simply be helpful to follow along the route instructions, but is essentially a "follow the leader"

We put our windshield on and will have our top ready to put up in case of inclimate weather.
positive thoughts: it will be a dry day.

[gjslutz]

I have the top, but I hope for a few more warm days this year. If I go to a warm place this year, it will be topless there also.

[gjslutz]

Robert, the aviation event won out, with much help from the grandson.

Have a great safe drive.
