I'm thinking about 11:00 and we are just driving from Santa Rosa, (east) on Chalk Hill Rd into Alexander Valley, Turn (right) onto Red Wine Rd. Turn (right) onto Geyers Rd and back to the Hwy 101 (south)
It'll take about 2 hours. I really just want to see how the car is holding up on the twisties before the biggy on the 17th& 18th.
Plus, something is creeking really bad towards the rear of the car. It's at it's worst when i'm on bumpy hills. I'm going to have to take it back to the shop to see "way is this happening"
As far as knowing the real time in which we are to meet. i couldn't get it. My friend from work never called me back today after i left him a message. But he is expecting me to call him tomorrow moring around 9am. So then i'll tell him i want to be in SR by 11:00. But i'll post more info in the morning.

wow, looks like this short run today (sunday) has got alot of intrest. It'll be fun and i'll see you out there.
Jeremy, i'm hoping to swing by early. but i'm still waiting on my friend. I called him last night and he had friends over and couldn't talk. So he asked if i could call him this morning as planned at 9am. Hopefully i can get him to come out earlier so i can make it to your place.

philioWRXman, i have all the pace notes right infront of me, but i don't have the time right now to right them all down. Jeremy's map is close but alittle off (just alittle) Plus my notes are of the old run in the different direction. So i'll have to do the math and figure out the mileage markers again. I'll post it later, probably Monday.

Rich,
Damn, I wanna go but I will have to see what kind of shape my car is in. Ive still got the missfire and all the damage from the last drive. Im trying to get the car at least drivable, things keep comming up. After this damn missfire is taken care of, Im just waiting to find out what is next. I think my car is getting back at me for driving her hard all those times in the past. Oh well. Ill keep you guys posted.

I think the start time was a bit confusing. I was at SRKK at 10:30 for a 11:00 start. I guess I missed all of you. So, I took off to the coast by myself.
