I went to thunderhill once on 0 sleep, bought 2 6 hour power, drank 1/2 of one and thought I was gonna have a heart attack, I started running laps around the pits and stuff!

Time to stock up on 5-hour energy shots. I'm gonna be pretty damn jittery the whole way down ROFL.

That sounds good to me.

For the Sac guys, would you all be willing to meet somewhere around the I5 and I80 interchange, some time around 5:30am, leave by 6:00am? Takes about 1.5 hours to get from the interchange to Chris' location.

No trouble at all. It was just a chill cruz to socal so as not to draw attention

Lets meet on the 5 some where by los banos,
according to themap it till take just shy of two hrs for you guys to get there, and for us hr and half.

so all of the south/ close east bay people,
we will meet at

Costco
2201 Senter Road
San Jose, CA 95112

@ 8am, and Leave no later than 830.
We will drive decent speed, nothing to attract attention, but keep up a decent pace in 152

Also costco is good so we all can fill up before.


We all maybe can stop at button willow which is just over half way there, and maybe refuel. I know I can make it to east LA on one tank and still have a extra 30-50 miles left, but I know for anyone that is supper modded may just not make it so a pit stop and fuel half way may not be a bad idea


anyone for south bay pm me your number and ill get it together

For the Sac guys, how about

Starbucks
1042 Florin Road
Sacramento, CA 95831

It's right off the 5 on the south end of Sac, so it should be convenient for everyone?

We should leave there around 6 to make it to Chris by 7:30

Yea its always good to just relax and stay in a nice caravan formation with this many cars. Prevents people from getting lost or missing an exit/transfer and it also draws less attention for us to get pulled over.

Unless your taking pics on the freeway or your planning on just mashing and ditching everyone there really is no need to speed up and do dumb **** lol
