Aug 27 fits me as I usually work days on Fri. and Sat.

Hey guys,
Love to be there, but I can't this time (business trip). Again, I am heading to the CART race at Laguna Seca on September 8th (Friday). It is a really nice day to be there. Lots of cars running but no crowds to get in your way. We could meet for breakfast in Seaside and then spend the day at the track. It would be just nice to all get a bunch of cars together.

Aug. 27 works for me too.

I'll try to make it myself on the 27th. If there's going to be a swapmeet there, I may want to go on the 26th to see what goodies I can pick up before everyone else snatches it up.

Guess we'll have to decide on a place to meet, like, next to the third tree on the right near the fence in the parking lot...or something like that.

I've never been to that place before, so it will be up to someone else to figure out where to meet.

Count me in for either the 26th or 27th, doesn't matter to me.
Are we gonna register? Do we need to register individually, or as a group?

Thanks,

We meeting somewhere? Or, do I need to get "Contour" tattooed on my forehead?

Even though I initiated this idea, I'm embarrassed to say that I don't know the area well enough to suggest a meeting place.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but it sounds like Sunday the 27th seems to be the best day for most people. How about agreeing on a set time to meet at the Gate 8 entrance (Valley Ave) to the parking lot. From there we can find a place to park all of our cars together inside (the parking lot). Either that or we can pick one of the nearby hotels as shown on the map (check the website I listed). If you want, I can email the map to you (wjang@earthlink.net).

The show hours for Sunday are 8am - 3pm. How does 9am sound? In case we decide on Saturday, the show hours are 8am - 6pm.

I don't think we need to register ahead of time.

Might we create a traffic jam trying to meet at the lot entrance? There is a quite large Mall, Stonestown, about a mile north that should be almost empty that time of a Sun. morning.

The mall The Of mentioned would probably be a good place. It's actually called Stoneridge, and there probably won't be anyone there Sunday morning. I work right outside the mall at Office Max, its always empty in the morning.
We could meet there, and then all drive down the freeway a mile or so to the fairgrounds.

From 680 North:
Get off at Stoneridge Drive, (right after the 580 interchange), turn right onto Stoneridge.
Go 2 stoplights, and turn right onto Springdale Drive, the next right is a mini-mall with a huge parking lot.

From 680 South:
Get off at Stoneridge Drive, turn left onto Stoneridge Drive, go over the overpass.
The fourth light should be Springdale Drive, turn right onto that, and make the next right into the mini-mall.

The mini-mall is pretty big, there's Office Max, Cost Plus, and a J.C. Penny's Home Store.

If anyone has any questions that are easy enough for me to answer, go right ahead and e-mail me them, stinger00@hotmail.com
I can run down to the fairgrounds and get any info, if we need to for any reason.

Thanks,

Perfect. I'll be there. Let's pick a store to meet by. How about in front of Macy's. I think it's on the far side of the parking garage. (btw, parking garages are great ways to show off exhaust and intake sounds!!!!)

Sun 8/27? Time? How about 9:30? I'm flexible.

wjang suggested 9:00. Sounds good to me since the show starts at 8:00 and ends early that day. (Sunday the 27th).

Sounds like a good meeting place to me.
Unless work prevents it, I'll be there.
Is everyone agreed on 8/27 (Sun) @9am?

Still on for this Sun? I get lonely just talking to myself.

I sure hope so, or the wife and I will be sitting in the Stoneridge mall wondering why everyone bailed.

Looking forward to it!

Are they installed now? Maybe I can compare them at the meet. How do you like your SCA sway bar?
