Caravan to UCONN car show - Sun. April, 9th

Posting this up here as well as on EPhatch.com in an attempt to get as many cars together as we can and arrive with a bang. They are awarding a winner to best team/participation and with the collection of cars we already have we should be a shoe-in. In order for us to park together and register as a team I got word that we'll need to be there between 9 and 9:30 that morning. Because so many of us are coming from different locations im going to setup two different meeting spots; one off of I91 north of Hartford in the Stop and Shop parking lot and one off of I84 east of Hartford exit 62 at the commuter lot.

8:15am - off I91 - 1095 Kennedy Road Windsor, CT 06095:
Best location for those coming from up north. This is literally less than a .10 of a mile off of I91. We'll need to depart from S&S by 8:30am at the latest to meet up with everyone else at the commuter lot.

8:45am - off I84 - exit 62 - Commuter lot - http://www.conndot.ct.gov/parkride/076-01pra.pdf
Best location for those coming from the east, west and south. The parking lot is right off the hwy and within 15 minutes of the meet. This will be the final stop and allow us all to get together and make a nice appearance at the show. We'll need to be out and on the road by 9:00am.

Id appreciate it if you could post up which spot you guys are going to be at so we dont leave without anyone. If you guys would like my number to get in touch with me if you're running late or for some help with directions feel free to shoot me a PM. For information about the show click on their website: http://www.uconncarclub.com/car/show.html. It's located off exit 68 of I84 onto rt 195 which takes you right into UCONN http://x12.putfile.com/1/2017443271.jpg. The show will be held in Lot W: http://x12.putfile.com/1/2017530958.jpg

There will be a nice collection of cars coming with us including some subys. Only thing id like to stay away from are a bunch of Hondas with fart cans.

I should be able to make it. Exit 62 off 84 for me. If anyone is coming from further West, we can always meet up earlier in the drive. Ill see if I can get DRAGIN and a few others to go too.

Good stuff!

So far we have:

3, possibly 4 Evos, an S2k, WRX, Volvo S60, Celica GTS, and a few Civic Si's
