There may also be a few folks from the Raleigh area and eastern NC driving up the Virginia Beach for the GWR attempt on 6/10... still confirming and then will figure out logistics...

I'm in for the Mt. Mitchell run! I'm hoping my dad's MINI gets here in time for him to go too. Can't wait to try out that racing harness on the twisties!

My vote would be to leave as planned, just take our time, stop when we want to stop. Just a nice leisurely pace, then we get all crazy later in the day.
Looks like it will be alot of fun...

I have to cancel on VIR, but I plan to make the Mt Mitchell run for sure.
Mooresville exit 36 or 33 what ever works better for Bill will work for me. IF exit 36 I would suggest the Walmart parking lot. That early on the weekend it should not be too much of a fight with traffic.

Bill and Daniel, are you reading this? Any ideas? I think we're picking you guys up near Mooresville right?

We can use cells and FRS to make sure we don't leave anybody behind, that's the main thing...

For the Charlotte group!
When we meet at the I-77 hwy 421 exchange, we will be making this a running join the group gathering. My suggestion is to park on the off ramp to 421 and when we get close you can exit and join the group. We will all be on channel 20/20 and announce when we are close. There is no real place to stop at that interchange. We will be stoping just a little further up in Wilkesboro at a gas station for a short break.
