I might get my helmet but if I can't Rob can I just borrow yours for my few runs?

I hate using the rentals, its just way too dirty...
Yeah AJ you can use my helmet. I'll even bring a helmet sock too.

As for Caravanning, you can if you want to drive down to 94 and 275 (Cuz I just take 94 all the way down). But it may be easier for you to take 96 down or something.

I'll call you tmrw.

Current list:

Rob
Jon
Deepu
AJ

Anybody else? I've also got co-workers going so I'll have a separate shoot-out going on as well

I actually hate the surface at CCM event , the only reason I am going is because all of you are attending.

Also CCM is FUN
Sorry but SCCA has too many rules...
I don't care about points, and having the "proper setup" and all that crap
I am going to have fun take people for rides, etc.
Also having to wait til everyone is done to see if there is time for fun runs is garbage

That is EXACTLY what CCM is for

Rob I'll prob just end up meeting you there.
P.S. Jess is coming, so now you guys might lose to a girl..hahah

Laright also the link does NOT work.
Whats the darn address so I can mapquest it..
Seriously have no idea where I am going

AJ: Use this link, and you will see the huge GM assembly plant north east of I-75 and I-94. You should be able to map to it that way.

Yeah, I'd like to know this one too. Someone remove the head shield between the driver's side header and the hard brakelines going down from the master cylinder?

uh oh Did you trade in the Z? Nice Jeep tho!

and Bart - yep.. I guess that would do it. You are still alive - so I assume you managed to get out of that situation safely..? Well, I hope no lives or cars were lost.
