OK, everybody is bitchin and moaning about going so early.
I agree, 6:00 is freakin early.
The only reason that I wanted to go at that time is because there has alway's been a large group of guy's that leave at that time, and I just thought "how cool would it be to get a HUGE group together, like 70 or so stangs".
Since that group is usually good for about 50.
The reason they go at that time is because they pull their cars inside the show.
I don't even know most of those guy's, and I am not pulling my car inside so........................................

Between the S.C.U.M.'s, the SVTOA, Vicious Stangs and others, we could get quite a large group together and leave later at a reasonable hour, say 9 am?
I will be up in L.A. the night before so I'd be down with that myself.
So if you guy's want to get a "late crew" together, I'm into it.

What do ya say?

Well I can't be there for this. I am in the show...

Who can I talk to about the group that is going up early?

The last thread before the fiasco said 6:30 then someone changed to 7 am. I wanted to verify before my SVTOA meeting this Thursday...

The original time to meet there is 6 am and they usually pull out by 6:30 or so. This will be a large group.
I believe they open the gates for show participants at 7:30.
I really wanted to join the early crew but it is my wifes B-day and she wants me to take her to a Padre game (they are playing the Dodgers in L.A.) and then out after, so I will be staying up in L.A. Saturday night.
So, for me to make it back down here by 6 am isn't too realistic.

If I hadn't sold the Stang I'd be there early for ya, Bill. That ride a couple years ago with the "pack" was a blast. Better than a double expresso.
It was more fun than the show itself.

Where in Carlsbad do you guys meet exactly? I'd like to get in on it. I just moved here a few months ago and don't really know many people or what and where the event is held. Can anybody kick some details down my way?
Thanx,
Phil
