Exclamation SSX Bay Area People

Alright, Let's all get together and make the trip. I've never been to one of this, but it would be great if we can get together and hang out as a group. So, start making plans and let's make it happen, C'mon Bay Area Represent....(got a little carried away)

I'm in... I might leave a day early since I volunteered to help out and they need us to show up early for setup/prep.

I normally run the Late Bay Area Caravan for the NorCal7 group that includes rotaries from almost every gen. And this year I will be driving the '8 instead of a 7. I start in the North Bay, but we have two stops to pick up people from South bay and Sac.

09/21/2007: The Nor Cal Rotary Pilgrimage for the 5th year to Seven Stock10
Details:http://www.rx7club.com/showthread.php?t=677298

Last year we had over 50 cars in the Caravan at one point, but with personal radios (tuned to Channel 7) and multiple stops it seems to work out okay.

Already planned on going, was just looking for the thread I'm down if you guys want to do just an 8 caravan, otherwise we should just join up with the others.

Sounds like there will be a few more 8s this year. I think I'll be joining the late caravan.

Yeah, last year we only had two '8s but since I generally lead the Caravan and will be driving my '8 instead of my old vert I was hoping that we will have a more balanced contingent.

We even had a couple of 2's last year.

We generally don't open it up too fast, trying to keep the speed under the attention of the law enforcement.

We tried doing the return caravan a couple of times, but most people seem to just want to drive back at odd times.
