Hey -

Any idea what time we are thinking about here for the meet? I already have a couple of commitments that day which can't be avoided, but I would like to drop by. Once you guys have an idea could you let me know - Haze

Hey Howard - 2.30 I believe, theres some info on the site with links to the 7 guys thread. They are going back and forth with location now, but I think they are sticking with FDR in Phila. I'll be there for a few hours probably...you will have a shorter commute this time!

Dragon - will be great to see you there!

Wayne

Yeah, it's kind of on the way out of town for me, but that's only going to leave me about a half hour to hang out. Oh well, I'll pop in if I can. - H

Its time for me to start asking for actual RSVP's here. I need a number of 8 drivers and guests who will be riding along for this little shindig. Please start letting me know if you will be attending. You can PM me or just respond in this thread (method I prefer). Thanks in advance for giving us a little notice, I am supposed to report #'s to the 7 guys. Howard, hope you can make it, even if for only a little bit.
BTW, if you don't respond you can still show up, it just helps us organize a bit and is appreciated.

So what time are you guys going to leave Yardley? We are starting the caravan in Lawrenceville and taking 95/295 over to you guys then down to Philly. Just need to know what time we are getting this all started.

Count me in. I will be coming in from Westchester County in NY so it will be a bit of a hike. But hey, I figure more seat time in my 8. Be nice to meet you guys.

BTW is there anyone else coming from NY, if so, do you want to meet up somewhere (around George Washington Bridge) and ride down together? Let me know.

Thanks

I'll be there :-) I will update the website today with alist of names and send out an email for those that might not see this thread. That should help Travis!

Anyone want to meet in my area (Morrisville/Langhorne) for a cruise to the meet?

We appreciate you coming down Anthony! Perhaps in the near future we could plan a NY meet closer to you - that might attract more Newyorkers!

Ok, looks like the primary locations for caravans that are north of Philly are the Yardley and Lawrenceville locations. If your interested in the Lawrenceville location, we are leaving Lawrence High School at 1:00pm and we will be over to the Yardley location to meet up with you rx8 guys who are meeting there already. Then from there i'm guessing we are all taking 95 down to Philly. Irish, are you leading up the rx-8/yardley caravan meeting? If so, maybe we could swap cell phone numbers so we can call up each other if anything is changing?

Here is the thread in the rx-7 club about the Lawrenceville meet in case its a better location to start out from for you guys. We are all meeting in Yardley anyways, so whatever works best for you:

Ocelot, at the moment I am unsure who will be leaving/meeting in my neighborhood, but I should have a fair idea next week. I'll email you my info.

I think I am going to be there. Actually, if you let me come along even if I don't have my car out of the body shop and have to drive the stupid SUV then I will say I am defintely attending...
I hope I have it - I was supposed to get it back this week.... but no, it has to go to week 7...
so Senseny.. yes.. I think I will attend. Sorry for the rambling, just I am still so mad...

If you cant bring your car and your bringing the SUV, maybe you could bring the grill everyone has been looking for?

I only have a charcoal grill - but if you find someone nearby (Delaware or Westchester for instance) that has a gas grill and AND I take the SUV I would be glad to help. (but I really hope to be driving the 8 and will be really bummed, grill or no grill, to be driving the SUV)

I am planning on attending with my other half. The Lawrenceville HS location sounds like a great place to meet at 1:00 PM assuming I can find it. I used to work on Lenox Drive in Lawrenceville so it shouldn't be too hard to find. I trust the 7's won't mind an 8 tagging along for the caravan.

No problem at all, as long as you can find the road, you can find the high school, its not hidden at all. If you need some good directions, or if you want my cell # in case you get lost, send me a PM. Is Lenox Drive the one thats off of Princeton Pike? They used to have street racing set up there, lol. Anyways, if its the place i'm thinking of, just keep going down princeton pike and eventually you'll run into the high school.

Sue, of course we would love for you to attend regardless of whether your 8 has been returned to you. I would be mad as well. I remember the times my cars have been in for paint or body work--sooo frustrating. So I can relate.

Senseny I will be there and I might bring a friend (he love Rx-7's). Leave me a message if we are having BBQ, I'll bring some supplies. Buns, hot dogs, I can get the buns part for cheap from were I work, just let me know how many you want. TPNova 1 that would be fine just let me know where you want to meet. See all of you there.

I'll be driving down to Senseny's place before hand to caravan down with him. Wayne, I'll be bringing some sketchy plans for that spoiler too, I've made a couple decisions on how I want it to look, and soon enough I'm just gonna go for it and then put pics up. Anyway, I'll be looking forward to meeting all of you guys and seeing all those 7s and 8s.

Eric

Great Eric!!. Sounds Excellent...really sounds promising!

Travis if you want me to post more names on the site just let me know - or any other info for that matter!

Also, I should have a set of BYLAWS drawn up for this sunday to go over. I'll probably email them first.

All the best
Wayne

Wayne, I will work a list up on Wednesday. Is there anyone who has contacted you through the website who I need to add to the list? Also thanks for the bump on my caravan thread.
Eric, I emailed you about catching up this week to coordinate Sunday. It'll be cool to meet a fellow Pitt Pi Kapp with a winning blue 8, you have good tastes my brother.
I can't wait to see everyone (and your cars).
Travis
