Mid July to August sounds really good. But I've up for anything. Self-Employed!

I'm in the need for a break anyways, I'm sick of L.A., I need a break from the rat race.

caravan ( ) n. - A company of travelers journeying together, as across a desert or through hostile territory.

I just thought that was suitable for this, and very fitting since we will be 'journeying' through a desert

I'm just thinking how this will go without being pulled over...because if one of us happens to be pulled over we'd all have to stop too right? You pull over one of us you pull over all, and then we'll see what the cop has to say, LOL

Probably write a ticket for all of us huh?

i think we would have to set up some ground rules...like if someone gets pulled over, we should take the next exit and hang out at a gas station or something, that way we dont throw the driver getting the ticket under even more heat and save ourselves the possibilty of trouble as well.

Sounds good to me, otherwise we can make a list once we meet with some cell #'s or get some motorola walkie-talkie to. I have a set or two around my house. It'll also give us sometime to tell a story or two about the last time we all got a ticket... we can call it, "ticket time exit" stories...

Seriously, we'll be fine the CHP and NHP will be more focused on the following weekend...it will be a perfect run. I also have an idea for those who really want some activties and to do an event...

Got Skillz?! Let's check out Fast Kart Speedway, we could tell them we're having a birthday party and get a discount. Let's do a day at this place and then party afterwards.
Website Link and MySpace Profile...
Seriously though, this looks like a good time. This is the Las Vegas track at night... night time racing!!!
  • See who really has driving skillz!
  • No Cops!
  • I mean let's go to Las Vegas to blow money doing something fun!
Any takers...?
...ohh by the way..."The AirBags" are optional...

So when is the proposed date? Count me in if depending on date. SEMA run sounds cool as well.
