Topic: VW's on the Green, 1st show of the year!!! DRIVE PLANS (Read 830 times)

Scott · « **on:** April 30, 2005, 06:27:58 AM »

Ok, the Denver guys are all meeting up at Krispy Kreme just off C-470, and the plan is for us to link up with them and have a GINORMOUS drive up to the show. The gates to the show open at 7:30, and we are leaving from Krispy Kreme up there at 7. What that means to you guys is that we need to meet at the Wal-Mart on 83 (north academy by Chapel Hills Mall) at about 5:30am.

We will leave at 5:45 and head up there, that should give you guys enough time to grab some grub at KK if you want to.

From what I understand the show is being held at a touristy kind of shopping area and they have an alpine slide too. So make sure you bring bit of cash with you to enjoy the area. I would suggest NOT bringing any canopies though as they are going to be sticklers about space and parking this year.... that kinda sucks, but oh well!

I plan on bringing the club banner, we just need a way to hang it up! thoughts?

Pat, what is your plan with the R32 geeks, can you hook up with us at KK??

I dunno for certain on that just yet. All depends on if they buy off on the early wake up call. The majority of them will be staying in hotels near the show site as there are a lot of out of staters coming...as well as several Denver guys.

My plan is to get up early :shock:, drive up there, and round everyone up at a pre-designated meeting spot. Still working the specifics on that.

well, there are three reasons for doing this...

1. So we can all park together (Audi's are not allowed in by the way)
2. So we can avoid wandering all over the place looking for people!
3. The drive will be very fun, and adding another 20 cars to it at Kripsy Kreme will make it just that much more fun!

So set your alarm and get your ass out of bed early!

There is not going to be room for it, I asked specifically about these and I was told that unless you are putting you car under it they will not leave any space for them.

That made me wonder how close together we will be parking???

That is a good question

Scott · « **Reply #10 on:** April 30, 2005, 09:52:52 AM »

oh yeah and they are going to require anchors, and if they feel your anchors are not adequate then you have to take it down... still wanna bring it Greg?

I am not happy about it, but I am going to deal with it.... I have a hat just for this occasion!

Greg337 · « **Reply #11 on:** April 30, 2005, 09:54:25 AM »

Yeah I am worrying about door dings now. WTF, if the cars are to close together it is just gonna look like a parking lot, not a car show :mad: :mad: :mad: . I dunno about you other whitey's, but I can't sit in the sun all day without turning into a lobster. So there is no room for discussion, I need shade and Lance can kiss my ass.

Jesus · « **Reply #12 on:** April 30, 2005, 10:01:12 AM »

How big is this venue? It sure the hell doesn't sound like there's much room.

Scott · « **Reply #13 on:** April 30, 2005, 10:11:21 AM »

well supposedly there is room for 600 cars....

Scott · « **Reply #14 on:** April 30, 2005, 10:12:02 AM »

and if you park with us why would you be worried about door dings?

Greg337 · « **Reply #15 on:** April 30, 2005, 10:13:46 AM »

If ANY car is within door's reach, I am worried about door dings, accidents happen.

Scott · « **Reply #16 on:** April 30, 2005, 10:15:41 AM »

call them and voice your concern... it has never been a problem in the past, but who the hell knows!

well, considering i can't even participate in the show, i was just gonna go to check out the rides. i have no problem with going in late and just parking somewhere. we'll see though, it depends on how much energy i have after finishing my last classes

By the way, that photo was taken in 2002 so there may be a few changes!

Here is an overview to give youan idea of where it is located:

I have hands too... what needs to happen?

djsatan · « **Reply #36 on:** May 04, 2005, 03:07:42 AM »

just need to pull the engine and check a few things do the timing belt and what not....

untill I do this I'm afrid to take such a long trip

Scott · « **Reply #37 on:** May 04, 2005, 04:43:50 AM »

pull the engine and check a few things?

?

give me some details here man, that is prety general!

as for the timing belt, that is a quick job... I'll make you a deal... you help me wax the crap out of my car and I help you fix yours...

djsatan · « **Reply #38 on:** May 04, 2005, 06:17:08 AM »

need to check make sure the block isn't cracked change the seals new water pump plugs timing belt.... no worries but if you still need a hand with the wax let me know and I can give you a hand with that anyway.

Scott · « **Reply #39 on:** May 04, 2005, 07:31:51 AM »

Why are you assuming the block is cracked, that is crazy! What led you guys to that conclusion and how can you not tell that with the motor mounted?

It just seems to me like you are planning extra work (and possibly extra parts when you break them by pulling the motor) that does not need to happen here... do not get me wrong, I am just trying to figure out what you are working with here! The water pump is simple... we can do that shit Saturday, i will bring over a canopy and we can knock that shit out in your driveway even if it is raining! Or we can go to the craft shop on post and do it there.... your choice!

djsatan · « **Reply #40 on:** May 04, 2005, 07:41:29 AM »

the block may or may not be cracked just need to check it... getting fluid in oil cap but nothing bleeding back to reservoir so it's a double check is all to be sure that it's not....
