PGT Posted July 24, 2006 Author Share Posted July 24, 2006 no.....WRX is fine too. Heck, if I can't get the DP issues sorted on my LGT, I'll be driving the new Mini Cooper S. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P doesn't know I got them and with my job situation the way it is, I think I'll ease her into it. of course. there's only like two stacks of tires, one set of wheels, three boxes of suspension sets, LGT headers, a stack of Mini chassis bracing and who knows what else in the garage. M won't notice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rallispec Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 you know what sucks though --- i was really looking forward to your burgers. Those were pretty F'ing good. Maybe next time should be a fun ride though, i'm looking forward to it. Some of the guys I work with are thinking about doing almost the exact same run on the 6th or the following weekend on motorcycle, so i'll be getting my fill of the shenendoah region.

Grumpy wow... quite a trek to get up here. Pretty cool though. Dan, do you want to meet up at your place first thing in morning? I would think we'd need to be on the road by 9 or 10 at the latest?

PGT Posted July 30, 2006 Author Share Posted July 30, 2006 9 or 9:30am will be good. Looks like I'll be driving the new Mini....LGT is still at Steve's awaiting some direction from TDC and possibly a new turbo (if any local has a spare VF40, please PM me). I'm thinking we meet at the same Starbucks as last time....a big parking lot to get everything together and ready to roll. Bring radio's....I've got two Motorola's so I can let one person borrow one. 1011 Edwards Ferry Rd NE Leesburg, Virginia 20176 http://renderv306.bay.prod.mappoint.net/render-30/getmap.aspx?key=50BF4B49F1DA73C6264E Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grumpy Posted July 30, 2006 Share Posted July 30, 2006 Just to pinpoint it, lookin at a map, it looks like your Starbucks is off of 7. I'll be comming up 81 to 7 out of Winchester. Looks like Edward Ferry Rd branches off of 7. Correct? Grumpy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PGT Posted July 30, 2006 Author Share Posted July 30, 2006 no. coming from the west, take the Rt 7 Bypass around Leesburg. It loops around to the south and then turns north on the east side. go past the Rt 7 east exit (Tyson's Corner) and take a right at the second stoplight - Edward's Ferry Rd. The Starbucks is in the plaza on the right, by the gas station. Google Maps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rallispec Posted July 30, 2006 Share Posted July 30, 2006 Grumpy - i'd suggest taking 81 to 66 - and then taking 15 north from haymarket... If you have an idea of when you'd be getting up here - I can meet up with you right off that exit and we can drive up to leeseburg together. - i live just outside of haymarket.
