Sweet! Glad you guys are gonna make it. If Jordon comes, I'll have to figure out a way to switch cars with him

Please reassure Julie that despite any....unfortunate photography....I have no interest in observing your peenie for any reason whatsoever. Though I'm sure with you being in the adult movie business, you're used to it.

About finished up with the route now. Gonna be a fun one. We're Maryland bound!

Has anyone else noticed that there's a 30% chance of rain on Sun. Doesn't sound like much, but it's something to keep our eyes on as the weekend nears.

Sorry for the delay here guys. I guess it's time to take one last poll before we commit to this drive and announce the route and start/stop times and locations. The weather between now and Saturday is looking pretty good. Sunny and dry and mostly above freezing during the daytime. I believe this will lead to roads that are snow/slush/ice free enough for the drive.

Actually it's two polls...Here goes...

Poll 1: Are you ok with the fact that there will be a fair amount of sand and salt on the roads we'll be driving? Keep in mind that we'll be "formation flying" so the odds of getting the front end of your car sand-blasted by the car in front of you are
fairly high.

Poll 2: If your answer to Poll 1 is "I'm fine with it, LET'S DRIVE!!!", then do you want to have the drive regardless of what other folks say and/or how many people commit to showing up, or do we want to postpone the drive as a group and wait for cleaner conditions.

To sum it up:

Poll 1:

A) I'm ok with the conditions, Let's Drive

B) I'm not ok with the conditions and would prefer to wait for cleaner roads.

Poll 2:

A) Doesn't matter to me how other people answer Poll 1, whoever wants to show up should show up and drive.

B) If enough people are hesitant to go, let's wait until conditions are good so that everyone can enjoy.


Knowing the quality Nissan paint we're all sporting (NOT!!!) I'll cast my vote to wait until some of the grit is off the roads, but since I'm responsible for the route, if you guys wanna go, I'm in.

We'll make the call on Wednesday, so try and cast your vote soon.

Hope everyone is safe and well, and we'll see you soon!

I would prefer cleaner roads as well, but we could always have a "beeter meet" so we can see Mike's turbonetics-equipped pickup!

Im fine with this saturday, as long as Im in the front . I think it would be a good idea to wait til wednesday or thursday to see how its looking out there. The temperatures supposedly going go up over the course of the week. Hopefully the Z gods will cast a rainstorm sometime this week to wash away the salt and sand so we'll have nice roads. Anyways, whats the route and how are those roads looking?

The route is up in Western Maryland(-ish), and I'm sure those roads will be the same as the rest in the area. Sanded or salted for sure.

I'm with those who would defer this drive for cleaner roads and a little bit better weather. Plus, I don't know about you guys but my car is a mess, and the next time I can clean it is Sat. That'll be about a 3-4 hour job.

if the weather is somewhat decent, we could just have a little afternoon meet and put the cruise on hold until next month.

hahahaha! Too funny.. beeter meet!

I diverge.....

I think I would still be up for meeting up on saturday with my Z.. the drive concerns me as well... I dont think that the roads will be free of sand/salt .. and I'd hate to see our babies get thier paint messed up.

Soooo.. maybe we can all meet at say... evolution.. and then go for lunch/ coctails at a local pub? I'm willing to drive the Z a little bit.. just not on a long haul

Just a suggestion.. I would love to still hang out with my Z brethren .. its gonna be .."warm-ish" on Saturday..
