When Exttreme was MNE he said he had pics of his TT with BBS LMs posted on the Yahoo TT owners club
...site. I had not seen LMs on a TT at that point (maybe 20 months ago) so I tried finding the pictures in question, I couldn't. So I thought they might be on the Southern Cal Club's site so I joined that club, still no luck. So then I joined the Mexico TT Owners Club (no it was not logical) to see if maybe they were there, not. This club was started by a guy in Mexico City with a Blue FWD TT. So I'm a member, since the FW gig is the 1st 'Nortn American' meet I will need to represent Mexico to make it official, it's thin but some one has to do it. JIM

YA I e-mailed you but just in case see inside BTW you could drive straight down 131 and meet us at
Elkart ?? let me know. JIM
Robby, Aaron & Rodney...here is the plan...
JimTT, RobbyTT & MisterPTT will meet at 7:00 AM central time at the Hinsdale Oasis south bound side of I294 just past Ogden Ave exit heading south. The plan is to leave as near 7:00am as possible. If you are late call and give your ETA: we will wait. If at 7:20 you have not arrived and we have not heard from you we are going. You then will need to call (numbers below) and we will plan to meet based on mile marker locations. The drive to the meeting point with Rodney will take 4 to 4 1/2 hours depending on stops, traffic and what speed we travel. I would recommend 75 to 80 mph as a good starting speed. The only tricky connection of the whole trip is 94 to 80/90, and it's not that bad but I have been part of group drives that did not all make that turn off. Rarely do you see Indiana State Police on I80/90 however Ohio is the worst for police and there are known speed traps, somewhat less in PA but again speed traps are often in the same places. Our game plan is to link up with Rodney around 12:00 noon (we lose and hour right off the bat). We will call Rodney around 10:00 eastern time and give him a progress report, we will call him again about 20 minutes from the meeting place. We will meet at the I80/90 service area/rest stop 7 miles east of where 280 meets I80/90 (aprox 17 miles east of Toledo). I drove the route last about six months ago and some service areas were closed for reconstruction, if for some odd reason ours is closed we will just meet at the next service area down the road. As you many know Indiana, Ohio and PA are all toll roads so there are service areas thus you don't have to get off the toll road for whatever. Rodney can of course call us and if he is way ahead of us or vise versa, we can adjust accordingly.IMO the food on all these roads SUCKs big time, so I would bring food and drink with. I find it is ok to make a lot of short stops but not fewer long ones, we will make better time that way. We should roll into Somerset around 4:30pm at the latest, we may well arrive a lot sooner.
