I'm in for the BBQ plus one, I plan on leaving VA by 8:00 AM. The car has been acting up the past several weeks. I hope to do a shake down drive all week. Thermostat cable broke and I need to get it sorted out. Valves adjusted, timing set, vaccumm lines updated. I have a small flat spot at 3500. Like someone jammed on the brakes. Fingers crossed that it works out I can drive it up. Anyone else coming from the South? We could drive in together..

Jon

Jon - I'm coming up from Loudoun County (Sterling). Was probably going to leave my place around 8:30 or 9:00 am and head up RT 15 through Frederick. If that's on your way and you want a "wingman," let me know.

I will also be looking for a 914er to drive me around

I'll have an empty seat. You're welcome to ride with me.

I will take it, Thanks Mark!

I'm afraid I'm out on Friday. Too many setbacks in assembly. Don't want to rush the final details. Really wanted have the car ready. Will be there Saturday to see everyone. Finally have to admit defeat.

Afraid so. If things go well it will on be a couple weeks late. Have you hit Bucks County Exotics yet? 1st and 3rd Saturday 8-10 at the Starbucks by the Movie theatre on 611 just south of Doylestown. Planning to go to Carlisle in May for the import show..
We'll have to get together for a drive.

Sorry to hear Dave!

I missed several events that I planned on driving the 914 to. I think you are wise for taking your time during this critical final phase. You'll still have plenty of driving time this year. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

Thanks. This definitely puts Okteenerfest on my calendar this year. Hershey would have been cool.

Here is our Friday Drive:

91.7 miles, 2 hours, 22 minutes driving time. Please print copies of the maps & directions. I'll have cheat sheets for everyone with the checkpoint addresses the day of the drive, but not full directions. A GPS would be helpful to have in case you get separated from the group.

1st leg:

https://goo.gl/maps/58qFqChudyA2

1st leg notes:

- At the very end of this leg, it may get a little dicey trying to keep the group together due to traffic lights, roundabouts, etc. through Gettysburg. But the first checkpoint is very close.

- When entering the Gettysburg National Military Park, follow signs for bus/RV parking. We will regroup in that parking lot. Restrooms and vending machines available.

2nd leg:

https://goo.gl/maps/fNRJu9XahRL2

2nd leg notes:

- This leg of the drive will end at Aircooled Racing. We will hang out for a while with Steve Limbert at his shop.

3rd leg:

https://goo.gl/maps/aihAsMb9MZz

3rd leg notes:

- We'll leave Aircooled Racing and take a scenic route to our dinner destination.

- There is no left turn from Route 322 into Hoss's parking lot, so we'll have to go to the next exit and turn around.

I'm looking forward to next weekend. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

It's official. Mid-Engine Invasion is on. Here are the plans:
<snip>

SATURDAY:
Saturday morning, we will meet at the Dunkin Donutes near the swap meet to caravan to the People's Choice show.

Someone asked about doing a t-shirt again this year. So, I will put a design together, and post details soon.

Unfortunately, I have to work on Friday, so I can't come up for the barbecue or the drive. However, I'd like to meet y'all at the Dunkin Donuts for the caravan to the swap meet. What time are you planning to arrive at the DD, or at least to leave from it?

Also, at which DD are y'all meeting? According to the DD web site, there are two DD's in Hershey. The first one is at 100 West Hershey Park Dr, Hershey, PA 17033. The other is at 605 Park Ave, Hershey, PA 17033. With my luck, if I just pick, I'll end up at the wrong one.

Pretty sure that's it, Len. Remember last year when we were leaving that farmer and his dog walked out right in front of you (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pinch.gif)

Scott and I will arrive late Thursday Night. Would love to be able to ride along for the drive but will take the rental car for the drive if none are available. Looking forward to the event.
