[MunsterZ28]

im in but we need a location, lol

[DETROITMUSCLE]

I'm in regardless of location :)

[white96TA]

we need more details, like a location and rsvp thread

but i'm in regardless of location

[c0ncEpT]

I'm in regardless of location :)
Same

[Schuby87]

I'm in regardless of location :)

Yup

[meissen]

Why don't you guys meet at M-53 and M-59 and that way you can take M-59/Hall Rd straight across to where the Northern Oakland guys are meeting up? ***DISCLAIMER THOUGH: NORTHERN OAKLAND GANG IS TALKING ABOUT LEAVING AT 8:15AM***

[Plum Nuts]

I would probably join up too.

[Z28ISGR8]

We could meet in that church/school parking lot on Van Dyke just north of Hall on the east side of the road. I'm in regardless but lets stop beating around the bush and call this what it is already.....A race to the M&G:-D

[Lucky SOB]

how are you guys getting down to 696/96? possible to swing through royal oak for about 4 more cars...? me, kyle, kolin and sam?

[JoeliusZ28]

Attending.... open headers.

[Z28ISGR8]

First we need to get a meeting spot and time, than determine a route. But I think we could all swing by that area to meet up. Have you guys determined a meeting place yet?

[MunsterZ28]

im in no matter where the spot is, but what about like the the best buy/sams club parking lot at m59 and m53 its a big lot we can all meet up at and theres a traffic light so when we leave no one gets stuck right off the get go.

[Schuby87]

how are you guys getting down to 696/96? possible to swing through royal oak for about 4 more cars...? me, kyle, kolin and sam?

Mound to 696 to Kensington wouldn't be a bad route.

[DETROITMUSCLE]

Thats the route we took last year and it was a good drive IMO thats what I figured we would do again but if were gonna stop along the way and pick up some more peeps lets do it then its a one day event better make it eventful :)

I also think that Lot at M-59 and M53 by the Salvation Army is a good place as well because we can fit all of us, there is a light, and also bathrooms and food if people need to grab anything.

bump: sounds good, anyone else have a opinion lol

[white96TA]

lets just set something.....that sounds like it will work just fine

[meissen]

You guys have 3 months to figure something out. :lol:

[Lucky SOB]

First we need to get a meeting spot and time, than determine a route. But I think we could all swing by that area to meet up. Have you guys determined a meeting place yet?

last year we all met at 12 and woodward in the shrine (big ass church) parking lot. but we could head down closer to 696 to meet you guys. mike cambell are you coming with this group? i know kolin has your number. but you could call us a few min before you get to woodward and we could just get on 696 and cruise slow until you guys get to us. could work. cause there's really no big parking lots down by 696 and traffic and the traffic routes down there would suck for trying to get a lot of people orgnaized.

[Z28ISGR8]

The Shelby Twp crew could meet up near Hall and Van Dyke at that church parking lot, get situated, and that cruise down to 12 and Woodward and meet up with you guys. Anybody have any objections to that????

[MunsterZ28]

lil bump so we can get back to agreeing a meeting spot lol. somebody take charge its not a big deal to me, just make sure we have a decent size lot to work with :lol:

[DETROITMUSCLE]

We are meeting in the Salvation Army parking lot on Hall Road and that is final. There are you happy now?

[meissen]

:lolup:

Good spot, though. Easy access to the expressways.

[MunsterZ28]

We are meeting in the Salvation Army parking lot on Hall Road and that is final. There are you happy now?

alright sounds good to me :lol:

[PWND3r]

I'm gonna try to meet you guys somewhere. But I'm in St. Clair Shores, so I'll be jumping right on 696. Maybe I'll jot down Meissen's number around that date and call him and see where you guys are lol.

[meissen]

Only problem is that I won't be caravaning with them. The night before the M&G I spend at Angie's house in Livonia and then I get up at like 5:30/6 and drive out to Kensington to be there when the gates open.

[Z28ISGR8]

Finally we have a place. Only 101 more days to go.:-D

[white96TA]

good we are actually making progress, i will go with the flow whatever it ends up being

[PWND3r]

Alright, looks like I'll be waiting on Van Dyke somewhere for you guys.

[JoeliusZ28]

whereabouts is this?

[DETROITMUSCLE]

http://www.mapquest.com/maps?city=Utica+&state=MI&address=45250+Northpointe+Blvd

This is the one.

[Plum Nuts]

whereabouts is this?
this is on the north side of M59 between M53 eway and schoenherr. Mead Lexus dealer on one side of street off m59 and and Pet Smart on other side. there is a light there to get on or cross m59.
NOW THE BIG QUESTION: What time are we meeting up?

[Z28ISGR8]

What time does the park open and what time does the M&G officially start at? Also how long does it take to get there from our starting point???

[LS1Phoenix]

Yes

[MunsterZ28]

Yes


??? lol uhh :lol::?:

[meissen]

What time does the park open and what time does the M&G officially start at? Also how long does it take to get there from our starting point???

Park opens earlier than you guys will be there :nana: Like 6am or 7am. I usually get there around 7-7:30 so I always tell everyone anytime after 8am is fine for starting to arrive. Most people usually start arriving between 9am and 10:30am.

From my house, it normally takes me about an hour to get to Angie's house. Kensington is about 20 minutes further west.

[DETROITMUSCLE]

What do you say we meet at 8 guys? If not would you preferr earlier or later?

[meissen]

Let's try to firm up the meeting time - I plan to post the caravan links on all the sites I have the M&G info posted on so people from other sites can caravan in with others if they would like.

[DETROITMUSCLE]

is 8am ok with everyone or is it too early for the lazy ones :)

[Schuby87]

I'm in.

[twoolley08]

I'm gonna try to meet you guys somewhere. But I'm in St. Clair Shores, so I'll be jumping right on 696. Maybe I'll jot down Meissen's number around that date and call him and see where you guys are lol.

im with this guy, im also in st clair shores....if you guys are stopping anywhere along 696 before maybe to meet up with ppl on this side of town let us know

[Plum Nuts]

Well I'm in. 8:00 AM at salvation army lot.

[Schuby87]

8:00 arrival, 8:15 (sharp) departure?

[Plum Nuts]

now that we have a place and time. What is the route? I was thinking we could go M59 to mound then mound straight down to 696. We could meet up with people at mound and 696. or get on 696 to woodward and meet up with Royal Oak group then to kensington.
What does everyone think?

I'm not registered 'YET', but Regal Lanes at 696 & Mound might be a good meeting/tie up place for the SCS peeps.

What does everyone think?

The times I could find mentioned in the Royal Oak thread were to be there at 8 or leave at 8. Both of which wouldn't allow us to meet up.

[JoeliusZ28]

Im in for 8am.

The earlier I leave the more people I get to wake up with open headers :)

[PWND3r]

im with this guy, im also in st clair shores....if you guys are stopping anywhere along 696 before maybe to meet up with ppl on this side of town let us know


Haven't seen you around. Maybe because it's winter and I just moved to the Shores lol. Nice car though, hopefully I'll see it around while I'm driving in mine.

I definately think we should meet up somewhere, or I could just fly down 696 and catch up :driving:

Last year we took M53 to Mound and rode that down to 696 and it worked out very well.

[Plum Nuts]

I couldn't remember the name but Regal Lanes would be perfect.

[Z28ISGR8]

is 8am ok with everyone or is it too early for the lazy ones :)

Your killing me Jeff. That's about three hours earlier than I normally get up. Looks like I'll have to stock up on Monsters for that morning.:-D

[meissen]

Don't worry, Mike, you won't be the only one. Last year I had two BFC (Big F***in Can) Monsters before Noon. :D

[Z28ISGR8]

It'll be worth it though. I can't wait for this man. I should also have a couple little surprises on my car since Jasen sold it to me so it'll be cool for everyone to see it. I don' think too many people have seen my car since then.

[DETROITMUSCLE]

Sounds like a plan so far guys, Mound to 696 is definatly the best way.

[Z28ISGR8]

Sounds like a plan so far guys, Mound to 696 is definatly the best way.

I don't know about that Jeff. 696 is going to be completely torn up starting next month through the fall. Just read this article on it today at work.

http://www.freep.com/article/20090223/COL12/902230337/0/COL12

[MunsterZ28]

ill b there at 8am sharp lol and idc about the route ill just follow the herd :lol:

[PWND3r]

If they're doing major construction I'm gonna pass on 696, We'll see what it's like around then though.

[meissen]

including a $60-million widening of M-59 between Crooks and Ryan roads in Oakland and Macomb counties.
:woot:

[MunsterZ28]

thatd be sweet if they widened m59 :-D

[Plum Nuts]

Hey Twoolley08, Tom the regal Lanes bowling alley is just north of 696 on the west side of mound. So the SCS group can meet us there at 8:30 - 9:00. then right on to 696 to kensington.

[MunsterZ28]

sounds good. i cant wait all this talk is making me anxious

[twoolley08]

Haven't seen you around. Maybe because it's winter and I just moved to the Shores lol. Nice car though, hopefully I'll see it around while I'm driving in mine.

I definately think we should meet up somewhere, or I could just fly down 696 and catch up :driving:

lol thanks, i only took it out once this year and it was only for bout 15min, what part of shores r u in?

[twoolley08]

if 696 is going to be all acked up i think i might just take 59 out and around

[Z28ISGR8]

Yea 696 and M53 from 18-27 mile are going to be completely torn up until November of this year. Gonna be a huge pain in the ass for a lot of people, especially ME :evil:

[MiDi_2001]

Here's the lowdown on 696. . .

15133

[Plum Nuts]

if 696 is going to be all acked up i think i might just take 59 out and around

HaHa the state figured youd do that so they are tearing it up too. from ryan to crooks.

[Z28ISGR8]

I heard that Michigan is officially going to change from four seasons to two: Winter and Road construction season to fix what happened that winter. When did they pave and widen Hall road??? 10 years ago??? Now it's almost impossible to drive it's getting that bad already. I hate it here.

[PWND3r]

Looks like I won't be taking 696, I don't want to get sprayed with cement and crap. I'm at 11 and Jefferson. You probably won't see mine around all that much either. I just looked at a 110 pump today and it ws towards $9.00 a gallon. :o Maybe I'll take the service drive or someother way out there.

[DETROITMUSCLE]

I'm fine with taking M59 out as well if the construction is gonna be like this.

[Schuby87]

I'm fine with taking M59 out as well if the construction is gonna be like this.

M59 to US23 and a little backtracking on 696 wouldn't be too bad.

[jgardner]

In for sure. Nothin beats a caravan of pure muscle! Can't wait guys! It's been a while

[Schuby87]

Anyone going to have someone else in the car and a camera for some rolling shots?

[white96TA]

rsvp thread?

[MunsterZ28]

ill have my girlfriend with me most likly she has a camera. its prob not the greatest for moving shots but we will try :-D

[Camaroe3]

I want to come !

[DETROITMUSCLE]

Come on out then we don't mind.

[qwicklt1ws6]

Im in

[erk2581]

instead of arguing over routes and construction info why don't we just do a Bullrun inspired caravan...pick your own route...race to the finish... :-) winner gets a case of beer?

[Plum Nuts]

Sunday we took M59 to milford road then down to bakers. no construction at this time.

[erk2581]

I know Mr. Meissen...or Larry as he insisted I call him the other day likes my idea...

[meissen]

Yeah guys, meant to post - M59 across through Pontiac all the way to Milford Rd and then down Milford Rd to Bakers is a great route. It will take about an hour from 24 and Hayes to get there but there's no construction and traffic is relatively mild.

[Z28ISGR8]

I need more freeway driving Brian.

[meissen]

You're not going to get much freeway driving either way, Mike. If you take I-696 it's down to one lane (and might even be entirely closed at an exit like they've been doing lately) so you're not gaining much freeway time by going I-696.

[qwicklt1ws6]

sounds like a nice cruise

[meissen]

Have you guys firmed up what time you're leaving the Salvation Army meetup spot? 8am?

[Z28ISGR8]

No I don't think we've got a time yet Brian. I doubt I'll have my car to come in anyways.

[MunsterZ28]

ill be there around 7:30 so if were leaving at 8 thats great :P

[meissen]

No I don't think we've got a time yet Brian. I doubt I'll have my car to come in anyways.
Whaaaaaaaaat? Why not?

[DETROITMUSCLE]

Leaving at 8am sounds great to me I'll see you guys there.

[meissen]

Have you guys decided on a route for sure yet? Like I said earlier, if you take I-696, you're likely to encounter sections that might be down to one lane due to the construction - but I'm not sure on that. I've taken the M-59 route twice and it's actually a pretty nice route.

Basically, if you go 696 you're going all the way down then west and then back up a few miles. If you take M-59 you're pretty much going directly west and then a few miles down. Either way will work, just trying to let you guys know the options available to get there since I know it's not the most "conveniently direct" place to get to.

[DETROITMUSCLE]

I thought we were gonna take M-59 to avoid traffic backups because those are an easy way to seperate a group of cars. Either way we will still get there so its not a big deal to me.

[Plum Nuts]

No I don't think we've got a time yet Brian. I doubt I'll have my car to come in anyways.
How come I thought you got everything fixed?

[MunsterZ28]

im not leading the pack, ill follow whoever which ever route, it doesnt matter to me :lol:

[DETROITMUSCLE]

How come I thought you got everything fixed?

His trans took a shit AGAIN yesterday.

[Schuby87]

Does this sound good for everyone?

Updated the first post with info. If you guys change your mind I'll update it again.

[Schuby87]

How many should we expect?

[MIWS62001]

I will shoot for that.

[MiDi_2001]

Well, we're less than a week away. Shall we take a head count on the Shelby Township Caravan?

I'm going to do my best to make it.

Out of curiosity and just for the hell of it, if replying, change the total as you reply.

1 Firebird/Trans Am
0 Camaro

To all of the folks that participated in the Shelby ride to Milford....that was really special. My 12 year old son was really getting into it. I may have started something bad here....not sure yet. Everyone got there, no tickets, life is good. We even had time for a stop at a church to get some early morning religion... ( that just made the ride a little longer and better!!)

Thanks!!

Chuck and CJ

Hell ya i had a great time, thanks for waiting up while i got gas in the morning.

[DETROITMUSCLE]

I wish I wouldn't have fallen behind and had to run back home :(

[Schuby87]

It was a cool sight seeing the line of car behind me! Sorry about the little detour, next time I will make sure my navigator is more prepared! lol She did make up for it by taking some pics at the stop light and through the rear view mirror going around some curves. I don't have the cable with me to hook up my camera at home, so I will post them when I get back up to school tomorrow.

I was looking forward to the caravan to the show, but brian needed help early for set up. That is one of the highlights to the day!:grin:

[Darth 93]

Hey Mike (QuickLT1WS6),

I may have given you some bad info on how to get back to 696. Going south from Bakers takes you to 96.. you have to go east to find 696. If it caused you any grief I am really sorry. Since you posted , I assume you did get home...;-)

Chuck

[white96TA]

thanks for taking some pictures and getting them posted up on here Mike.

i would like to have some of those pics, pm sent

Did you guys pass over the dirt section on Milford rd? Kinda noticed when I was turned the wrong way and saw you guys, then found another 4th gen and followed him over pavement and still got there like 10mins before you guys. Guessing you took it slow over the dirt.

Anybody else enjoy that chicane under the bridge?

No we didn't. As soon as our point man saw the dirt and hit the skidders there was an accordion effect; no casualties.

How was the cruise over using M59? Was it alright or were there any issues? What dirt section are you guys referring to?

The cruise over M-59 was OK except for all of the traffic lights; but that was expected. It's as if they intentionally time them that way, so you can soak up all of the surrounding business and possibly patronize them.

We missed the right turn at West Huron Street and if you continue on, it turns into a dirt road.

[meissen]

Ohhh - yeah the jog isn't well pointed out. Our first time we turned from the lane to go straight at the last minute when we realized we were suppose to turn.

On my map it was called GM Road, not Huron Street, so we missed that turn. Then shortly after that the road was going to turn to dirt so I had a WTF moment and pulled in to the church right before. Just a minor detour, but Mike still managed to get some pics of it! lol
