BC convoy to C5 Fest 2 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Merc · 09-22-2010, 02:19 PM

Firebird Raceway Pheonix AZ
April 14 -17

Who is up for a convoy?

Post in this thread and I will start a list and of course all western provinces and our neighbors to the south can join in along the way.

Time to get a list as who will be a part of Canada House 2.

The flag is ready to fly again.

Most of the BC convoy is booked into the Host Hotel. Better hurry and get er done.

Update: Convoy Departs early Tuesday Morning April 12th (Preposed Staging Area Costco Parking lot about 1 mile or so north of the Huntington Border crossing) Were thinking 7 am. Plan is to make it to Twin Falls the first day. We are now hooking up in Vegas with the Utah and Vegas group. So we will be staying in Vegas Wednesday night. (Orleans Casino most likely) Departing Thursday morning to hook up with the Cakifornia Convoy in Blithe and then on to Phoenix.

Subject to change due to road conditions. Road conditions will be monitored, starting a few days before departure.

Should road conditions not be favourable and we are forced over to the coastal I-5 route we could hook up the the very large California Convoy.

Vegas = 4200 KM =2590 Miles
Phoenix AZ = 4160 Km = 2590 Miles

Sorry to hear that. A bunch of the Florida boy's are filling Reliable carriers Trucks up for the trek west and flying in. The price was reasonable. Maybe an option for you guys. Were going to need a flag pole. Where did you get that one and how much?

Nitrosniffer · 09-24-2010, 10:30 AM

Hmmm, I could use my location as Fort McMurray and go for long haul :P
