ok, as for the 20th, I have work so I'll have to talk it out with my office. But if everyone agrees with that I'll try. PM me if you want to go for sure and either 20 or 27 will work best. I'll need some kind of an idea where everyone is meeting so let me know where your coming from and NoVa people can choose some kinda meting point.

because of work if I go (going north to south) I can get there as early as 3:45p, or (going south to north) I can get there as early as 5:45p >.< 3:45p should be ok though, so how about meeting at 4p on the northern section? I'll find a good parking lot or foo joint close to it. That cool? who all could make that?

I think the rest area of I-66 just after Route 29 Exit would be a good location.

I'd consider it if it's the 20th, but Skyline is not my favorite drive - sure the scenery and all is great, but it's too slow and boring and traffic sucks. Great for scoring points with the GF, though!
There's a MSCW HPDE at Summit on the weekend of the 27th that I'm considering. Anyone else doing this event?

I just looked up the exit in Waynesboro, Va. It's located right off I-64 & Rt 250 and is approx 105 miles from Front Royal. So when all the details are final I will pm you my info if you don't mind calling me when you guys get close. I am only 10 mins away from the exit.

ok, so I managed to get off of work so I am deff going and I've got all day. How about we meet up in front royal, somebody give a suggestion, I've never been, around 2p?I wanna meet up at like a restaurant with a good parking lot but not being there it's hard to tell. I found a subway off of 340 and E5th that should be a good spot and not too hard to find I hope.
So set time/dest is subway at route 340 and E 5th st, front royal at 2p? Everyone ok with that?

Since I live in Waynesboro I will get on at 2pm and head in your direction. I figured we can meet at Big Meadows (Byrd visitor center) which seems to be the half way point. I added a link that has a more detailed map.

I thought there would be more ppl. Someone needs to get an exact count on who's going. If there is only 2-3 cars maybe we need to postpone this trip until others can participate.
