I'm coming from State College, PA via I-80 to I-76.  Just booked a room at the Kent Econo Lodge for Thursday night so I'll be in a great position to meet you at Summit's in the morning and head to join the Caravan.  I'm stoked!!!

I am looking forward to seeing everyone this year.  We may even see another 76 50th in our group caravan this year.  It's possible and I hope he can make it.  



There will indeed be another 76 50th in the caravan this year (barring any unforseen automotive disaster).  Will meet you at the Lodi Exit.

Anyone from points east want to meet up along 76?  I was thinking perhaps the Summit racing parking lot.

Unless I'm reading it wrong, Hitman's original posting indicated that the contact for the Lodi exit stop was Brian Miller (Gold78Spc).

Not sure how it's going to work for me yet but the plan is to return from canada and spend a couple of days to finish the Y88 so i can trailer it down then headed back to PA and drive the 79SE back to ohio then try to find someone I trust to drive the 79 down with you all. I'll meet the group on rt 30 somewhere. If that don't work out then I may just go to PA and drive the one car from there. I haven't registered yet cause I don't know what will happen.

Where is the Summit racing parking lot?  Can you give me a landmark I can Google?

Hey hammer, Just wanted to let you know that I may not be jointing the gang, But I may take a ride to the rt 18 I-71 exit and ride down to the 209 with ya all, Maybe with the ta or could be my big black ford, so if you see a big lifted black ford f250 chasing you guy's don't get scared it's just me. But I will be down on sat.

Got it.  Now I have to sort out all the offers of assistance.  Thank you Hammer and everyone associated with the Ohio TA Club.

I'll be joining the group in lodi, I'm trailering my car so I plan on bringing some tools like a floor jack, torque wrench and some assorted tools, maybe a full size spare tire should anyone unfortunately need one. I believe some friends from canfield will be with me in their '00 t/a.

Unfortunately I just found out today that I have to work on that Friday, so I will not be a part of the Caravan (first time in 10 years).  Hammer will be in charge of the caravan so make sure you all contact him regarding who is going and who is not going so that no one gets left behind.  Also, make sure no one gets lost.....

Now, since I am not leading the caravan, if anyone wants to have the orange lights on top of their car to lead the group, you can use them.  Just let me know ahead of time so I can get the lights to Hammer.


Hope you guys have a good time and I will be down Friday night about 8:00 or so to Dayton when I get off of work.  Kinda stinks that I will miss the caravan, but hey.... we will still party Friday and Saturday night.

Sorry to hear that Bret! But - since Hammer is really taking his car this year I vote that he wears the LIGHTS>>>>

It's only right....

Hammer! Be careful where you run the wire for the lights, not below the dash!  ;D
