Okay, looks like Adam (Blkknight) came up with a good idea. He wanted to get a caravan going to the track and well...you know me and caravans....

Half the fun of going to car events are the caravans. Ooooh, the looks we get from everyone....especially those Stang owners.

So, what we'll work on doing is getting atleast two carvans together. One from the Pentagon and another one near the 495 for the folks West and South.

More details to come and as always...recommendation/suggestions are always welcome.

I'll probably be there but I won't have the IROC with me. Probably just coming along to spectate and to hang out with some fellow thirdgen freaks who I know are going
