Due to geoff bailing, I also won't be coming down. That's right it's all his fault.

I will still make sure knobs get down for the raffle. Anyone know who those need to get to? I don't remember off hand

Also, I'm going to cancel my room, does anyone want it?

Me for the knobs. Shoot me a pm when you get a chance. Thanks!

You guys should just fly down and rent a Prius.

I really want to come with my car, but driving the 8-9 hours alone would be no fun. Plus, I was actually skipping a family even with my wife to come down, so she isnt too upset about me skipping this.

There is a fall camp too right? If @HawkeyeGeoff and maybe @LynzeC (and any other nator MI people) are down, I would set up a trip.

I will send you the knobs as soon as I have them done. I will PM you shortly for your address as well.

Bummer :( but that's a long drive for sure

Fall camp should be sometime mid to late October.

8-9 hours by yourself, I wish. I'm looking at 15 hours from central Kansas. I'm tentatively planning on spending the night if the 20th in Nashville so my first day is only 9ish hours.

Ouch. But Im getting to old for this road warrior business. And I dont trust my car to go that long by itself without some sort of support crew. Its a finicky bitch and hasnt been more than 3 hours from home in years.

I have a metric ton of maintenance I need to do on my car before leaving, and I have no idea how I'm going to find time. May just drive it as is and park it for the weekend while I drink.

I drove from Colorado to Illinois then back to Colorado in 2 1/2 days. That's a 14 hour trip one way. I also stopped in Iowa on my way out and helped put together the bottom end of Deldrans motor.

tapatalk, it sucks

What I did last year, one trip to test new suspension in the 6 then parked it and hung out.
