You are an inspiration Ramzi, I like your style! FYI I have a shipping contact I can offer.

All credit goes to Koala Yummies, I will send it.

So my trip may adjust based on recent events with the R... Still working on a plan to make this trip, but I may have to spectate at Nationals vs. actually compete. A lot depends on what happens in the next month or so and the amount of time i have available to look at all of my options.

I offer help to anyone wishing to attend. Especially longtime Expo sponsors and attendees.

So this weekend will be the defining the solution for the remainder of the year... Or at least helping guide it. We shall see.

Depends on my car situation... My R definitely won't make this trip... Currently surveying the field for a suitable, temporary trackable replacement... Eyes are on my 94 LS since it already has the 5 lug, but needs to get a once over and possibly a roll bar, seat, harness, and steering wheel install... Might be too lazy for an engine/trans swap. We shall see.

I've also been toying with the idea of doing the cruise in an S2000 (that i don't own).

I love this group of people. They're what got me into tracking.

Currently investigating s2k convertibles suitable for the trek.
