Attn Caravan Leaders!!!

Yo guys.


We need to time this accordingly. We can't have everyone just run up the mountain all at once.

So, there is no official start time... I'll just say the event starts somewhere between 11:45am and 12:45pm


It'd be great if some people could take charge at each caravan spot (like Dave and Busters) and send groups of 15 cars ever 10 mins or so... That way the entry wont be nearly as bad.


Who is down to do this? 15 car caravans lead by someone responsible. This is the only logical way to do this.

I need some leaders!

there is going to be a backup either way, but I would do like 15-25 cars every 10-15 minutes.
This way you can get all cars there within a couple hours.

For those that've been in the past, how long does it take to get in when you're at the end of the line?

I am glad I have never had the experience of waiting in line. The benefits of setting up every year.

That's a pretty good idea. I guess most people will be meeting up at the Great Mall. I guess we could do something like... all the GC's leave at one time, then all the bugeye's, then all the wagon's or something like that. I think that would be cool.

Ok,
everyone that is leading the main groups
1.) Northbay- bushido (rich..me) ..................about 20 cars

2.) Eastbay- slvrsubywgn (smitty)

3.) Fairfield- maddhatteroo7 (ricky)

4.) UCKK- A.V.E (ave)

5.) Salinas- (leader?) (name?)

6.) SF/Peninsula- rau (wally)............................about 17 cars

7.) Santa Clara- Wally407 (name?)

8.) Sacramento- Rivers (name?)

if there's any other groups not posted please post your "user name" and "real name"

i'm planning on having all the leaders meet in front of my car @ 11:00 am where we'll draw cards to found the order. (if your caravan has more than 15 cars send a different leader for every 15 cars in your group)

My car is easy to spot.
2003 WRB WRX with a Window Banner that reads "BUSHIDO" i'll be waiting for everyone. If i can get a loud speaker i'll bring it.
