to add more food to the buffet.

Personally I don't care how many cars come on the run. we have enough Road Captains to handle about 60 cars.....

but when we go to dinner only those pre-paid get a "bracelet" for the buffet

Gunny I appreciate your concerns

NEO Kappa club may not run with military precision...but we do have our ducks lined up.

No worries and I am by no means trying to get into your pudding. I had no doubt you have everything under control.

My posting has nothing to do with military precision or trying to influence that type of methodology on anyone. My input was soley based on our runs and coordination effort with the West Coast Kappa Car Club. I assist when asked, plan, and participate in these type of events to escape my military work environment, to spend time getting to know and enjoy the company of other Kappa owners, and have a great time. being out in my car on the open road is how I wind down from work stress.

Running it like a military operation would be outright BORING for everyone...

I track 71 government vehicles that are scattered and driving across the entire state of Michigan on a daily basis and that is only a small part of my job. I sure as heck don't want to do it on a weekend I have off.

I know I am new to this side of the country and no one over here has any clue about me as a person, but give it time and you'll quickly realize I am just a happy, easy going guy who just loves to get together, drive with friends, and help out where I can.

Simply, please don't take me or what I say the wrong way and I apologize if I came across that way.

Keep up the great job and I look forward to shaking your hand when I get there.

Not to worry all! The Great Sol Commander may have all the bases covered! He's in full on "run" mode! Or at least run planning mode right now! I'm not sure he does anything besides T2TR right now. Heck, I bet he's got a task list all set up either on a spreadsheet or in some sort of project management software!! With a critical path and all the possible scenarios of things that could happen (good and bad) and not 1, not 2, but at least 3 contingency plans for everything!!!

And that be why we nicknamed him The Sol Commandor (SC)!!

I could post the Real Men of Genius song again and the video clip AR made, but then his foot will be up my backside!!!

Ok.. I see my screen name all over this page!

Yes.. I booked at the Hampton. I called them, the NEO CAR SHOW rate had expired (makes sense, I'm in late here as it is). They had open rooms, I booked one... not the same discount rate, but only $5 more with my AAA card (not AARP, totally different and I'm NO WHERE near that time yet).

As for money... well, I don't have checks, so I had to have my bank send one. If I could have used PayPal you'd have the money already! It should be there by the overly extended deadline, as it usually gets printed and mailed the following day (which should be today).

Think that's all that addressed me. Glad to see there are folks I know (yeah Joe's Crab Shack!), and looking forward to meeting all of those I don't know yet.

I'll just post it over there. He won't care. And if he does, he'll enjoy taking it out on me!

BTW, PM me your # over on the Sky Forum. I have inbox issues over here right now! Yeah...It's full again! Sorry Dashark! Chat or e-mail me til I get it freed up. Prolly sometime this weekend. And no...I really don't get a lot of PM's, just have a lot of old stuff that needs to get exported.

Thanks boys! Trying to work on Darkwing to join you guys in St. Louis. Did you see he's driving up from Texas and is looking for a caravan! He found one if the timing works!

Wow, that's a long way. We'll be happy to have another to roll with. I believe thursday will be an early morning. I can't wait.

Yup...I believe it will be about a 7:00 am departure time. SV1 has a shorter ride to Champaign to meet me so he may get to sleep in a few minutes more than the rest of us!

I'm allowing an hour in Indy. We'll leave Indy at 1:00 pm Eastern. If we all make it there on time, we'll leave as soon as we're finished eating and the tanks are full!

I always forget about the time zone change. I rarely have to deal with that.

Same here. I had to double check that Indy was an hour ahead this year! Doesn't matter, though. We know we're losing an hour somewhere along the way. Gotta plan for it. I'm allowing 8 hrs total and I think that's going to be about on the money. Mapquest says 7 hrs and 40 minutes for me. By the time I meet SV1 and get back on the road...it'll be 8 hrs.
