Subject: Walnut Creek Swap & Show Caravan

Where do you wanna' meet up with us that are coming down 680-24 from Sacramento???

Give me a call (five one zero - five zero four - four zero four two) and I can call you when the group is coming into Concord on 680... like when we're passing by Sun Valley Mall.

We don't plan on stopping anywhere and waiting for stragglers, I would love it if people can be waiting near an on-ramp when we are passing by.

I expect the group to pass through Vacaville around 7:40 to 7:45 and to be hitting Concord around 8:30. I can never judge how fast BarryA feels like driving... sometimes 80+... :) so it may be earlier than I expect. They're gonna call me when they leave Sac and again when they hit Vacaville. I'll give whomever a ring when we're leaving Vacaville and again once we pass by the Willows exit at Sun Valley Mall.

car (or driver) with the lowest speed capability or comfort level - makes the whole process self-limiting. BTW, I'll bring along a pair of 5 mile range walkie-talkies so the lead and sweep cars can keep in touch if the group gets big enough.

1) hey guys, you're cutting it awful close on the time. I think the very latest we should leave that mall is 8:30. 8:15 was when I was going to leave the area. I'll be there with 2-02's. My buddies 02 is a stock 76 so he isn't going to be flying too fast

2) what channel you going to be on the walkie-talkies?

3) you guys got Fast-Trak?

Believe it or not... I'm the slowest on the freeway. 4:11 rear end and early Porsche-style-syncro 4 speed.

Someday, we should just bomb down the old river road (Hwy 160) through the delta. Very senic and just as fast!!! The old ferry boats are fun too.
