Btw I believe it would be a good idea to take uncivil (Brian Sims) off of the list thats attending the event considering: 1) His car got flipped on its side, 2) I dont think he has reserved a room yet... I hope he gets his car back but since we have heard nothing from him I think its safe to assume he wont be making it.

Yeah, I talked with Brian and he won't be making it. He's pretty sure they're going to total out the car

Actually, we were already sharing a room, so no, no roommate needed, but glad to hear your nephew may be able to join us.

Since we are getting close to the meet I would like everyone to remember the following:

Check List:

1. Walky Talky (cell phones are literally worthless where we will be driving)

2. Cash (the Three Sister's route is located in the country and very few dining options allow you to use checks or credit/debit cards)

3. Deer Whistle (if you want to drive at night, these roads are country roads and deer hits are not uncommon)

4. Check tire pressure.

5. Check Oil

6. Snacks/drinks (rest stops can be few and far in-between)

7. Consider bringing painter's tape to protect any part of frontend of car as you WILL get rock chips from the run.

When you told him to "pound your ****" cause you were wearing the same underwear, I had no clue you meant women's underwear!

jigga, aren't you worried about the actual three sisters run throwing rock chips at your car? Not just the drive there?
