OK - here is the call. We'll meet at the SC Welcome Center at mile marker 103 between at 8:00. Google has it at about 40 miles from Charlotte. At 8:15 we saddle up and head to the BMW plant, about 52 miles away. That way we get there shortly after 9:00. MoS - we need to figure out where you can meet up with us... Comments? Questions?  |

You're not coming? You mean I have to be the oldest guy in the group? |

Christopher, my friend, I don't think you and I will ever be the "oldest" guys in ANY group. Not in our minds anyway!  But to answer your question, No, I won't be making this trip. I've done enough car shows to last me 2 life times. I require speed for involvment  |

OK, Kevin from CAFE sent an email out to his group about the convoy and schedule, so hopefully we'll pick up some italian hardware at the rest stop.

Great show yesterday. I was stunned by some of the treasures on display there.
What about photos? Could a post be started on LotusTalk where they can be more easily posted and shared? Or is that sacrilede to refer to another forum?
Anyway, great to meet and share with other Lotus enthiusiasts.

I think I might put some of my pictures up there when I get home from work. Lotustalk is blocked at work now for me.
