    That would be wonderful!

    We should be done by 8:00am latest, so he can jet back in time to give her that wonderful birthday breakfast I'm sure he planned on preparing - :)

    Let us know.

    So far its: Sunday 10/10/04 6:00am to 8:00am EST. Where do we meet? On the square or on a side street?

    This might give me an excuse to get to my mechanic.

    I'll put NayNay down once he confirms - I spoke with him this morning, and he said he'd let me know.

    None of us have front plates, and we go in and out of the Midtown Tunnel routinely without problem. Once in a while they'll flag you -- Buttuz has had some particularly bad luck -- but on the whole I've never had a problem with the Midtown.

    If you've got an EZ Pass, that's even better!

    As with most things in life, yes. But again, given the 'superpower' status of the Enzo, I'd be shocked if anything happened. The odds are in your (dad's) favor here.

    But wasn't your Dad bringing her in the Enzo for breakfast in Manhatten? It just so happens that there is a photo anyway that he's helping fellow Tifosi out with ;)

    ur very much likely to get nailed if u go through alone. they got me twice. once right before i enter. once they radio to toll booth and i got stopped at toll booth.
    last sunday we went throught with about 8 cars, then no problem. alone is tough.

    I guess I was lucky, then, 'cause last weekend I didn't have a single problem going out to meet you guys, although admittedly, I was with Clyde coming back in.

    pchop's used the Midtown Tunnel many times too, hasn't he - has he had equally bad luck?

    Guess they may be getting stricter. In any event, Michael, Buttuz and the rest of the gang are coming down from the East, so there should be a caravan. Oh wait, do any of them have plates either? - :D

    Maybe its because your exhaust makes the tunnel shake and they are afraid it is going to cause a leak....
