Both Tony and I are deadly busy, but I tried to organize as much as I can. Because the distance from CarLab to driving route is about 20 miles, I need to find out if how we want to proceed. Here are the following choices:
1. Meet at CarLab at 9am, leave at 10-10:15am, get to driving route at 10:40am, finish at Santana Row, lunch => Club/home. Please note that after 10am, resident traffic will increase and fun factor will be dramatically reduced and will be there.
2. Meet at location nearby driving route at 9am, start driving at 10, finish at Santana row, lunch, Carlab => club/home
3. Meet at Santana Row at 9am, start driving at 10, finish at Santana Row, lunch, CarLab => club/home

Please let me know.
Below is the updated driving route. Please note when driving, let's keep it below 45 mph because speed limit is about 35 to 40mph.

Hey Fred,

Thanks to you and Tony for putting something together.
Busy? Yeah, no kidding. I unfortunately have a business trip that will require me to fly out early Saturday. Now with the recent terrorism attempt I'll now have to show up at least two hours before my flight

I like the 9AM start time. Gives me at least a couple of hours to say "hello" to everyone. I'll leave the starting point up to the rest of the group.

Cheers,
-CoolTones (The "other Tony")

Okay guys, Fred and I finally touched base and agreed to have the meeting place be at CarLab at 9am sharp. That way jiio can get his V1 hardwire before the drive. I think CoolTones and Freed0m are doing something to their cars also.

CarLab's address is 670 Nuttman St #101-102, Santa Clara, CA 95054.

We'll then take the drive around 10-10:30 and end up at Santana Row. For lunch, I'd like your vote on either Asian-Fusion, Mexican, Italian, or Pizza (in decending price from the restaurants I have in mind). Let me know by noon tomorrow if possible so I can make reservations.

Thanks.

Tony
