so anyone want to take part in a caravan up I-95 to the 2009 convention?

I'm probably one of the furthest south persons and its about a 1400 mile trip for me.... I plan on leaving saturday morning early or Friday night, still undecided....

I'm probably just gonna drive through, don't plan on any hotels on the way up there.... and arrive sometime middle day Sunday at the host hotel.....

Any other folks along the i-95 corridor plan on driving a SHO there on the weekend?

there might be a lot of SHO's going this route.... could make a nice caravan

Yes. Most definitely. I've been meaning to bring this up in the TSHOC forum. I'm thinking checkpoints along the way where people can make contact with the caravan and join in, say one or two in every state. Although all that stopping and waiting for people might make total trip time a little ridiculous for you deep south boys. Perhaps simplify the meet ups and have a mid-atlantic and a new yorkish area rendezvous. I already know the CapSHO folks are planning a caravan, perhaps the deep south caravan could get up with the TSHO/CapSHO group and 'van on up. As the SHO blob, or group of SHOs if you will, moves north it grows bigger and bigger as it heads further north. Just think, a train of about 50+ SHOs heading up 95, or two lanes of 25 each. Why go individually when there's safety (at least for my POS :naughty: ) in numbers plus itlll be more of a special adventure occaision.

If this caravan gets much bigger than about 30 cars I'm gonna contact Autoblog and have them cover it. Neff'll *** his pants.

if the SHO don't break majorly I'm goin......

I need a clutch disc, adj rear arms, alignment, probably tires by then and thats pretty much all the money Im gonna spend on it.....

I got so many new parts on this bitch I'm starting to run out of stuff to break......

If all else fails I'll probably rent a car... I been needing a vacation and never been to that area.... by then it'll be almost 2 years since Ive gone out of state....

I'd rather leave earlier and be there sunday mid day.... rather be there chilling then on the highway.... hopefully this works out for others..... would be pretty badass to have a good 20+ caravan going through NY......

I am pretty sure most of the MD,DE, NJ (me) are going up 95.

We should have a meeting point so their is a massive amount of SHO cruising 95 :rofl:

NJ, DE, MD, and everyone below you along the coast. VA, NC, SC, etc. We definitely need to set some meeting points :thumb:

My start point will be exit 89 (or mile marker) on I-95 in Maryland Sunday morning. (not sure of the time yet) There is a park-n-ride there but no gas or anything eles at that exit.

If the caravan is passing thru CT on I-95, Im literally like 5 mins. off the highway.... it could be a nice quick stop, bathroom break and beer stop...

Physical address for those mapping:
2051 East Main Street
Bridgeport, CT 06610

I-95 exit 27A(Route 8/25)
Exit 5, 2.5 miles off exit

Ill be driving up in late May. Ill be in RI/NY for the summer. I hope to make it for at least the track day. My son will only be a few months old so I doubt Ill be in for the whole shpeel.

It will be cool to take anther long roadtrip in a SHO. Good memories blasting up and down 95 in the ol SHO.

Chris I wanna leave like Friday night.... whats your plans

if we leave friday night and drive most of the time we can probably get there at a pretty decent time on Sunday

and I'll have to show you guys why my last name is Bender....... ha!

I wonder how many people we can get to puke throughout the week

that hotel will never let people from Florida with SHO's check in ever again
