And I also got a squeeling tires $69.
I just called to see how much my "unsafe lane change" ticket is and all I can say is holy sh!t. 136.50 to the fort wayne PD What a fricken joke. Next time i will just have to go up and turn around a few blocks up.

Where was this? near halls diner?
Me, Stu, steve, and alex all did the mad illegal ubanger right next to halls. Kingpin was saying the cops were pointing at us!
Fort wayne deserves a kick in the freaking balls, WHAT THE [censored] IS UP WITH ALL YOUR DAMN CENTER DIVIDERS!?!?!
At least make the [censored] a little easier to turn around on. everytime i managed to find a ubang spot i felt like i was going to scrape the bumper on the opposite curb trying to turn.
It ends up being easier to use a parking lot!

Yeah the cops were in the right lane following car lengths behind. When I saw them accellerating I brought it up to everyone. They would have nailed someone I'm 100% sure, but then you guys came around with a U-ey. I had to get used to the design of the town as well. I think the layout is the new standard for road design, though. At least it wasnt as bad as the interior of Buffalo still is. There are far too many one way roads that AREN'T labelled

I did the same thing going in to Hals.
Wasn't sure the M was going to cut it before the curb.
Duke and Fabian (in the Sho) were right behind me too.
All of us were greeted by the site of a squad car right at the entrance.

sack up!
my total drive was ~2200 miles (just a tad shy according to mapquest). i drove 1022 miles yesterday with 3 stops by myself to get home, so 700 is an easy days drive. other CEGers were pushing (the NE ones) dang near to what i did. VERY MUCH worth the drive. if SZ is in ft wayne again next year im going to do the drive again, without thinking twice. JUST DO IT!
You know what....I friggin sacked up for Uncle Sam and have done many difficult things because of it. ONE OF THEM was to give up some personal freedoms such as being able to cruise 750 miles away without getting a pass or permission, such as taking leave. It isn't that I wouldn't want to, I am NOT ALLOWED to.
I've also got kids that I don't need to subject that sh|t to all the time. We just did over 5K miles in a car in a very short time(TX-AL, AL-TX, TX-AZ-CA, CA-AZ-TX; TX-AL-MD, MD-AL) because we moved AND went on vacation.
Therefore I feel perfectly justified in asking other people to compromise and make a partial sacrifice by having it in a central location.
Now I'm not saying I won't go or that I don't want to. I will have to plan it in and decide whether it is worth dragging my family and burning up my hard earned leave. If I were going by myself it'd be a no-brainer.

NO This was thursday right when all the midwest guys got there. I saw them pulling into the hotel and I was across the street so I pulled out and zoomed across three lane of trafic to get into the left turn lane and in the process I cut off an unmarked police car.
