    I will have more details on the drive soon and post the ending points. We can work on a meet up point for the gang.

    Yeah, the insurance is giving me a few grand more than I paid for it, which is good. I'm not going to get another Lotus immediately, I have this itch to buy my first house that I may need to scratch first. Meanwhile, since the Lotus was the daily drive, I picked up a 2000 Passat for $1K. W00T! I'll see you at the next EuSu.

    It is the time to buy a house so go for it. The passat still can hang with a little love.

    Ahahaha! You don't have to worry about that ;-) Thanks for the shotgun offer, I'd be happy to take you (or anyone else going) up on that. I'll gladly film the drive, meet, etc, just need to get a hold of a tiny tripod so we can get some good dash views.

    Norcal Tahoe RUN 9/27/08

    Meeting point is:
    Nimbus Winery
    12401 Folsom Blvd
    Rancho Cordova, CA, 95742

    Meeting at 9:00AM (this is to meet everyone and to avoid traffic as best as possible)

    The 2 groups will be divided into the following:
    "Spirited" - for those who wish to run at posted speeds in twisty roads and a little above
    "Cruz" - For those who wish to open the throttle sparingly but prefer to see the scenery.

    On the road at 9:20am on the button.

    ****Please remember to bring 2 way radios if at all possible.***

    Lunch will be at the Forest Buffet at Harrah’s Casino Casio for those who are interested.
    The food is ok but the view is worth the price of admission.

    Spread the word as it is open to all.

    This is a day run so if you are in a time crunch know that the soonest you would be back is close to 3:00pm to Sacramento.

    Have you made arrangements for a "reserved" parking area at Harrah's or will it be every man for himself/herself? We'd like to drive over but if the cars are scattered all over it'll be hard to meet. Where to from there?

    I handle all the arrangements to let them know we are coming. As I never know acurate numbers it is hard to tell them a deffinate group size. So all numbers are best guess on my part.

    As for the parking we park in the farthest back lot near lake parkway. This is the official parking spot we have used for 6 years on each of these runs.

    If you are planning on meeting up with the group I would say we would be there between 11:30 and 12:00. Again I can't be more pressies as of traffic factors.

    Please feel ask any questions you may have about the drive or meeting up once we reach Tahoe.

    Hello Everyone.

    This is a quick update and reminder. I have spoken to Harish and everything is ready for our arrival on the 27th. Security is aware we will be there and be parking in the back lot around noon. They will have patrols of the lot to make sure all the cars are safe.

    I have also let the forest buffet know we will be eating at their facilities.

    Hope to see most of you on the 27th.

    Reminder for tomorrow.

    also PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE bring or purchase a 2 way radio. Motorola is the best brand. If you want to keep the cost down, split the costs with someone as there are 2 in a package.

    Thank you.

    Where are you going to leave I-80 to go to Tahoe. I am in Reno and would like to meet somewhere, maybe Truckee to finish the drive with you to Tahoe. I'll need to know an approximate time also.

    Thanks
    Randy
