thats sounds like a great day.
and with the majority of the activities ending around 4 or so, i will have plenty of time to get home, shower, change, and head out to work.

I'm sure there will be enough tourist activity to slow us to the proper speed limit that day, at least on 112. 113 is where the fun is going to be. wee!
no worries, I got my passport, we'll be invincible, just look out for a 5 0 signal from my car or just by seeing me freak out when the radar detector goes off, both ways you all will know

Depending on if I have new tires or not, I may be trailing at the end of the line since I won't be taking corners quite as much as the rest of you.  I wanted to take the Miata up, but it's having a few problems so my parents don't want it traveling so far.

Matty, is the problem with the Miata something I might be able to help with? I have been collecting the factory repair manuals on CD for the Miatas. I don't think I have their year specifically.
I think we'll be there in our car, it would be fun to have another red roadster for the drive. I'm still dying to see it.

Darn... even though I'm not technically in the CEG midst any more, if I was around, I would have thought about crashing this gig. I'll probably be on vacation and in Chicago/Michigan that weekend.
Nice job, Kim, glad the NE group is still active.

Thanks for doing all this organizational work, Kim. I think I'll head to the get-together. Not only do y'all seem like a fun group, but I'm also not on-call that weekend.  Quote:

My bone-stock '95 Mystique GS will be joining 98SE near the back of the pack... and I'll be bringing up the rear if I can't get my rear sway-bar fixed by then (busted left bushing).

Ryan - I'll e-mail my dad asking for the symptoms. Something about engine stuttering or bucking under acceleration, I think (not unlike the famous problem I had with the Probe that got misdiagnosed three times), but I'll get more details. I know you've been wanting to see it, we should meet sometime.
I don't think they were quite comfortable with me taking it on such a long trip North anyway so regardless of outcome it will be till another meet that I can bring it. (I can't even park it in Worcester  it's their baby, haha!)
Peter - would enjoy finally meeting you after all these years, please come!
