I'm guessing we are planning dinner at the lodge again? I will make sure I make a reservation this time. Sucked waiting 45 minutes last time.

It is much better with the grill open......but, yeah, if you are eating at the lodge, reservations are a must.......especially this time with the crowd we are going to have. We try to make them in groups so be sure to speak up to join a group, or start another.

It might be nice to have a channel to monitor while we are on the way in case we run into other Crossfires.
Nothing specific already set for the channels on our radios.
I don't assign channels.
Each group will decide on a channel that works for them all and each group generally uses a different channel.

Most important thing is that almost everyone has a two way radio in their car all weekend and extra batteries as well.
We will most likely be in groups of 10 to 15 Crossfires while doing our runs on Saturday and Sunday.

I have not decided where I will be leaving from; its either Terre Haute or Columbus. We could possibly meet at the rest stop of 65 to meet, set a radio channel and set back out if you would be up for running in pair to Florence.

If there is someone with a room in the lodge that wants to switch (it's cheaper to split the cost of the cabin with 1-2 others) send me PM. It would make 2 more beds available for late attendees.

Yes, I know her pretty well since she is my wife of 37 years (sure hope I got that # right). Her name is Linda and her car is an ssb SRT roadster. My name is Jim and I have an ssb SRT coupe. Sorry for the confusion.

this sucks, looks like I may be having to cancel my plans to attend next weekend. had to have my car towed in today due to a possible faulty crank sensor, then noticed while it was on the roll back that I need new rear tires.

Hopefully you can still come, but if not I'm sure you can find someone to take your hotel room! You could probably start a bidding war for your room.

Where are you located? I've got a spare CPS, but you're on your own with the rear tires.

crank sensor is a 10 minute fix once you have the sensor, the rear tires....well, you have to replace them sometime, and BEFORE the Dragon would have been highly recommended anyway....lol
