What is going to be the official departure time from Walnut Creek . I ave heard 9:30am to 11:00am. I think we need around 45 minutes from the bay area to get there and fueled.

[John Place]

The plan we discussed was same as last year plan to meet at 9am
Plan to leave about 9.45am and latest 10am.
You know how there are always delays!!!

We will plan a lunch stop and fuel and then arrive in good time in Reno as they only register from 3pm.

Ok, let me get the facts summarized so everyone is on the same page (I hate that phrase ).

What: Caravan to Reno.

Who: Bay Area Cobras.

Where: Kohl's parking lot in Pleasant Hill (not Walnut Creek). Take Monument Blvd. exit off of 680, look for a lot of little cars that are blue with white stripes.

When: Caravan will leave at 10:00am Thursday morning (5/17).

Is this correct Tom, Scott, and John?

Last year we met at Starbuks around 9 then met the larger group in Walnut Creek at 10. I am going with this plan so far.

Scott, check out the thread in my last post.

I'll be there as soon as I can. I pick up my co-pilot at the Oakland Airport at 8:45 am Thursday. Barring no flight delays, we should be at Kohl's by 9:30 or so. Leave anytime after that. I recommend leaving at 10:30 sharp.

If I were you guys and had the luxury to do so, and wasn't hauling a bunch of stuff and a trailer to the Bash, here is what I would do:


First, - Take the pressure off about being on time. Meet somewhere for a nice breakfast for an hour or more; gather up, have some fun just getting together. Let others flow in so you can achieve a larger caravan, depart by 11 or so.

Second - Pick a nice scenic route driving up, enjoy, take your time getting there. Smell the roses on the way up.

Third - Not be in a hurry, arrive whenever but not much later than 6pm as things start to buzz around 6pm there in the Corral and the Track Meeting is at 8pm.

Fourth - Take some pictures along the way. Stop a few times just for the heck of it. Make a scene somewhere. Last year, some of the best photos were taken by people getting to WSCB.


Remember, Thursday is casual arrivals and nothing is scheduled. Have fun, good luck, and we'll see you guys there!
