SilverEIGHT

OK, for those that want to meet up and form a caravan over. I will update the first post of this thread with an eta of meeting places on the way to Barber. Some of you may not want to leave this early. I will start a second list if you like. L8 and I want to get there early to watch the Go Karts practice.

First Post

.

SilverEIGHT

L8, where do you want to meet at Jimmy Carter?

L8APEX

I will just hang out on the shoulder, and catch you as you go by. Cell phone communication before that will be a must, since I don't feel like sitting on the shoulder for a long time, crazy things happen on the shoulder of 85.
But we have a ouple weeks to work that out. I don't know if anyone else will be leaving that early or not.

L-Co

Hey guys! Can I come too?! I have a friend giving me paddock passes and I just ordered a car corral pass. Add me and Mr. L-Co to the list please! Yay! I cant wait!!!! I went to Barbers for the superbike races a couple of months ago and had a blast. (Of course the free drinks in the paddock helped immensely.)

SilverEIGHT

Sure, welcome aboard!

Anyone else up for a caravan a bit later in the morning, say somewhere off I20 around 8ish - 9ish? Qualifying starts just after 11 with practice prior to. I like the carts, but dayum thats a bit early for me to get up on a Sat.

SilverEIGHT

Gimlet, yall get another caravan together and I'll put it in the first post.

SilverEIGHT

If you are interested in purchasing GA RX-8 Club labels for your car or neighbors Porsche, please go to our order thread at our website garx8club.com and follow the directions. If you are not registered, you will need to before you can access.

I will be placing the order TOMORROW (THURSDAY) so your prompt response is very important if you want them for the Barber event.

jdeberhart

If they'll be on sale at Barber, I'll buy a sheet then. Got the engine back in the car, now i just need it to run for more than just a few seconds at a time.

Phlash

I'm in for the second, later caravan.....

SilverEIGHT

Please see post 1 for details on Caravans.

Anyone interested in adding to the list?
======================================
FOOD & GOODIES
======================================

SilverEIGHT: ICE Cold Watermelon
jdeberhart: Cookies
rxeightr: Chicken Wings (ummmm yummy!)
L8APEX: couple coolers, put some beers, cokes, and stuff
chrisg: cooler with beer, soda, water, etc.

chrisg

I will join the 8ish-9ish caravan. I vote for an I-20 exit just outside 285 - maybe the Thornton Rd exit? But then I would vote that way given I live in Marietta....

Phlash

lets plan on a 7:30 to 8:00ish group for the second batch..lets just figure out where to meet.

Gimlet

Sounds good Phlash - Do we make it official? The group leaves @ 8?

As for location - Thorton Rd. Exit looks pretty good, as anyone near Metro ATL will have to pass by there heading West. Is there a large parking lot there abouts to meet up at (I'm kinda new)?

SilverEIGHT

OK, I'll put it on the first post.

Is there a spot you guys will meet at like a waffle house or something?

whenson417

Thornton road works for me. There is a Walmart on that exit if you take a left off the ramp from I-20 heading west. Or if you take a right off the exit there will be an IHOP where some of us could meet early and catch some early morning grub before we head out.

Gimlet

Thanks for finalizing Silver - looking forward to next weekend!

chrisg

I'm up for grabbing food at IHOP before we leave at 8am.

ScreaminRX8

If anyone is coming over early (i.e. Friday) and are staying close to Oxford or Lincoln let me know, we can meet up or something.


I have a question since lil screaminrx8 gets in free does that mean he will get in the paddock for free also?

whenson417

what time do you want to meet up at IHOP then?? 7ish? Some reason I always think it takes aleast an hour to eat there cause they are so slow.

chrisg

Yeah they can definitely be slow. For those that want to eat at IHOP let's meet at 7am.

SilverEIGHT

Dang guys, group #1 will be passing by there about that time. Guess we will wave as we go by or just stop in for a egg and a juice!
