Caravan drive to Est Fest

Thought it would be timely to open up a Caravan thread so people can gather for a group drive up. I would suggest the service station along the 400 just north of Teston Road:

Service Station (with Tim's)
12001 Hwy 400 North
King City, Ontario

To minimize the impact of cottage traffic, our preference would be to gather at 1030am on Friday May 25 and depart by 11am. Understand many of us may not be available to depart that early, other time can be proposed. As organizers, a few of us will have to head up early and setup. This thread is to assist others who would like to gather and depart for a group drive.

Go ahead and respond, and advise what time you plan to leave and whether the suggested gather point is agreeable.

I can meet at this location for 12:00 Noon...it's a two hr drive from this location.

I'm leaving my house when I wake up on Friday morning. It's about 12 hours. I'll see everyone when I get there :biggrin:

I believe John S, Bhash and Danny M are going up Hwy 12 across 169. All three are from the east end (Pickering, Whitby, Port Perry) so if anyone wants to joint them, do post here and suggest a meeting time. I believe their preference is to leave by 1030am.

Personally I am leaving Richmond Hill by 1030-11 also and would be prepare to meet for the group drive, assuming we have enough interest.

Getting close!

@ bjmills - Brad, are you and "Player 2" still planning on arriving at Windermere Thursday? If so, any time estimate?

Anyone else there Thursday?

TIA.

Neal, something came up, so Brad is not attending Est Fest this year.

Everyone else is coming up on Friday, so you can enjoy the Hot pool all by yourself...

Bram

Owen, I can be at the meeting place off the 400 for 11:00 AM

'Preciate your update, and bjmills + we'll miss you.

Friday PM you may find me shivering in Lake Rosseau. I'll tell the hotel staff you are the one that tips for all attendees :tongue:

To make up for your loss...I'll buy you a Beer when I get up on Friday afternoon.

eddy

Ed, I believe that Daria is leaving around that time, perhaps you may want to drop him a PM.

Bram

I'm going to see if I can make it up there by 11am... It's 8 hours away so I'd need to leave by 3am.

Take your time and drive carefully....You can text anyone of the Exe with your ETA, our contact info is on the package that was sent out, we can adjust our time departure if required.

All you long-timers making this drive, here's what I need.
We made NSXPO Toronto 2009. Two NSX's there, actually.

The NSXCC/CA decal for that - need two! Someone filched them or I cannot find them. Want to strap them on. Help me out, please? :redface:

Neal, That is a rear item....We made just enough for the attendees at NSXPO in 2009...However you can have my sticker, as I will not put on my Car.

How about and NSXCC Club sticker?
