«OFFICIAL» Woodward Dream Cruise 2010, August 20th to 22nd

IM SORRY IM SO INDECISIVE!
my cousin is def out according to what he said
i on the other hand am still kinda up in the air and plan on deciding close to the last minute, just because thats how i am
if i do go i can always fend for myself and sleep wherever whether it be in a car or a floor or even a bathtub

So any of you guys taking pictures, can you upload them to RodandPiston.com too since I’m not going to have a chance to get out there this year :frowning:

Rolling up stateside on Thursday in the RV, bringing an extra set of tires for heaterzzzz!! Camping in LaPeer & hang’in around Pontiac w/the Yellow Bullet group, hope to see ya’ll there.

well unfortunately i will not be going to this. my front tires are corded and i wont be able to get new ones in time. Jack Roush wont be there for me to get my car signed, i have nothing to do there on Friday since everyone is coming later. so just a whole bunch of stuff just didn’t add up to make it worth it for me to go. and we’re currently 2nd in the points race at lake erie for the late model so ill be able to crew on Saturday now.

so that being said, my room is up for grabs if someone wants it or wants to split it whatever. let me know asap and we can set things up. thanks

how much are you paying for your room, id be happy to take it…

its $94 for the night of the 19th and $74 for the rest of the weekend. but i need your name so i can call and tell them if you dont want thursday night and so my card doesnt get charged.

Ill take it then man…John Platt

That’s a bummer.

yeah man i wish i could go and share some heaterz with you guys

do you want the room for thursday night or just friday-sunday? let me know asap please

That sucks Mike. We’ll be sure to let you know what you’ve missed :slight_smile:

Just friday through sunday please man, sorry forgot to include that before

ok ill call the hotel and let them know that you are taking the room and give them your name but you have to call and give them your credit card number and whatnot. i am calling in a minute

the number is 248-585-8881

I just called and transferred the reservation to your name. The confirmation # is 81498727. The rate is now $89 per night because of the shortened stay. This is the same rate Josh is paying though. Also, when I gave Taunya (reservation desk clerk) your name she informed me that you already had a reservation in your name. You need to call and give them a credit card number. I also asked her for a guaranteed late check in because you guys are getting there so late on Friday night. This is 02NismoSpecV’s mom by the way. If you have any problems or need anything else, let me know. Have fun!

How late do these meets go? We’ll be arriving later than we first thought on Friday. Oh, and check your PMs so I can get your number :tup:

PM’d.
How late a meet goes depends on how the police feel at the time. I expect that the roads up in Pontiac will still be pretty fun in the late hours.

ha. I wish I was bringing a fun car.
My mazda will have enough trouble hauling all that is man around.

Just made the trip from Buffalo to MI through CAN last Sunday night and here are things I ran into:
-Grand Island Bridge had 1 side down and caused a ~20 min delay
-Bridge construction (before Hamilton) ~20 min delay
-403 section closed after 10pm with a back road detour ~15 min delay

Also not sure where your entrance point into MI will be but there was a bunch of construction on the 402 near Sarina and on the 94 from Port Hurion down.
I decided to take the 401 to the tunnel and went smoothly, but if I was rocking a manual vehicle I would avoid the tunnel and probably take the Ambassador Bridge (they also have duty free gas on the bridge).

That’s our route. I’m sure we’ll hit some crap along the way.

Looks like you will miss 2 of the 4 problems I mentioned as long as you get past the 403 before 10pm.

I would check one of these before you hit the road. You could have an hour wait at Lewiston bridge and only 15 mins at Rainbow or vise versa

Yeah I usually call the automated bridge phone numer to get the wait times.
