That depends on who is willing to come all the way here to pick me up, then bring me back too.

1) 480 W
2) Turns into 10
3) Turns into 20
4) Take a left just before getting to the racetrack.

Taking 90 means you have to take the 80/90 toll road...and who wants to pay tolls?


Besides how often is mapquest right?

well, maybe the people that are going to meet at quaker and the people that are going to meet at shearer could meet again, together, and a nuetral location that is on the way to norwalk? i dunno, just trying to compromise and try to get as many of us together as possible.

Yeah, I-90 keeps you too close to the north. You'll end up somewhere in Amhurst and still have to drive another half-hour going south. I-71/I-480/Rt-20 makes a diagonal route from downtown Cleveland.

That's not a half bad idea. We could meet a Shearer first beforehand and then meet the Subie guys at North Olsted afterwards.

That's fine, as long as thats on the way to Norwalk, i'm not sure if it is becuase i have no idea how to get to norwalk. But if you guys think thats a good idea, we can do that, people meeting and shearer can just go and meet in a neutral place on the way. I'd really like to have us together and show some unity.

Whatever you guys decide just let me know via PM or E-Mail please. I thought it would be a nice central spot for people to meet at since it is downtown. Regardless it's no big deal.

For those that wanted to see the shop, you aren't missing anything special by not coming. And we'll be having a Car-B-Que, as they have been dubbed, as soon as the warm weather becomes more stable.

You are right about that Matt. I would prefer meeting off of I480 but if the majority vote is to meet downtown then I'll go with the flow.

Thanks for the tip on the the fuel pump btw .

Maybe we ought to think about it as a "driving event"? where efficiency is not the only goal... Driving clubs occasionally take convoluted routes just because the scenerey is nice, or because a long parade of similar vehicles is a nice statement. This is a *club* and we should do things together, no?

May I make a suggestion that we *all* meet downtown. It is a central place, even though some of us may be backtracking to Norwalk.

Deetz.

I don't want to consider it a driving event, simply because it starts @ 8:30. I don't know when we plan on arriving (racing begins at 11), but I don't think I want to leave my house at 4am to cruise. I'd be up for some roaming on the way home, however.

Mr. Shearer - some of us will be there, I should think. I know Matt and I plan on it.
