I'm only in NJ on the weekends, and I wasn't expecting to have the car together so soon. Although now I'm thinking I should've just driven there.

I guess that's a good thing to have it together earlier than expected even though I can't drive it.

I would go but I'm heading to Etown for the last EFI race event of the season. Sounds like a good show.

Mud, you are south of me, aren't you? If it is just you & me, if you want we could take rt1 all the way up. That would help with your highway speed issues, albeit slow our progress down - matters not to me. Else we take the NJT and I could follow you letting you set the pace.

We can meet at my house right off 295 in Hamilton. It starts at 10, so we could leave my house at 9.

I was hoping BTK was going since he knows the area (I really don't), but he may still be down with his Dad.

Jeff??

There is also a slight chance I would have to bail on Saturday. My Mom is having surgery on Friday. But we expect no issues.

Yes we are south of you, I'll plan on being at your house around 830-845. We can go either way. I don't mind the highway, I just try not to push it past 3100 RPM when cruising, I'm guessing around 50-55. The speedometer isn't hooked up. 410 rear and 28" tire if anyone wants to do the math. People are usually flying past us so its hard to judge, not like anyone in NJ drives the speed limit. I'll send you a PM with my number.

When you said you had 28" tires, I knew we'd be close.

I'm still hoping to go but the car started acting up again yesterday. It appears to be electrical related so I'm not sure what I'll be doing yet.

I'm still not sure what I'm doing tomorrow at this point. I guess I'll make a decision in the morning.
