OHIO CAMARO ENTHUSIASTS/OWNERS REPORT HERE - Page 237 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

IROCanSS · 06-03-2010, 05:05 PM

I googled the KMart and the Kroger. This is the route that SilverIceMan was talking about. You can also see the faster way... 75 south to 275 if you want to run that. From the KMart to Kroger is 1 hour 10 minutes going to surface streets. Now you can figure out where you want to meet up and caravan down. I know people are coming from different areas so this gives the basic route. We can talk more throughout the week.

Emma... 2 hours isnt bad, Drew and I are about 1:30 from KMart.

Sounds like fun! I should be able to make it on the 11th, assuming I can line up someone for kid taxiing. I usually head east to Bellbrook, then take US 42 down to Lebanon, where I get on Rt. 48. 42 is a nice cruise, not too much traffic, and much of it is 4-lane. I would like to meet up with other Dayton folks for the drive down! The Lebanon Wal-mart Lowbubba mentioned is right on the way.

This is AWESOME! I am so glad you all are coming down! Lets pray for nice weather!

JEWL - Since you have both the Hawk ceramic brake pads and aftermarket rotors, do you have any rust colored dust on your wheels? Do your aftermarket brake rotors show rust when wet?

No rust colors, actually charcoal looking. The rotors do not rust, but they look like a form of corrosion after I use the wheel cleaner until the first run. The OEM rotors did do the rust thing.

I am getting ready to switch my rotors around this weekend to see if it helps with the squeal.

** did you get your mirrors. I plan to wire mine to be markers too. Should be easy since I have almost everything wired. We need to shoot video when we do it so just shoot me a PM.

Just got the nod from Gin on the trip. 11th is on unless bad weather or if my flight is delayed for some reason. Should be easy from Mint, ND to Minneapolis to Dayton.

Just happy to help and see the results. Took us a bit to think through and try a few different things but we got it after 6 hrs or so. most likely down to 3-5 hrs. Next full install will tell.

I got contacted a few on facebook so there may be some others there. One car you all want to see... It is a black L99 with LOTS of mods. The other guy is another car thats cammed but a different exhaust so sounds totally different than Drew's... not as good as Drews IMO, but it sounds good!

We do need to get the wives up to KMart though. More for the "afterparty"!

Great can't wait to see their mods. I think Long Tube headers are coming and a tune in the VERY near future at Cincy Speed.

Unless you have any mods, then hail damage is probably voided by using Zaino. 99% of you are out. Merlin has definitely voided his warranty with the dozens of coats he has...

Truly sorry about the hail damage though... :(

Absolutely for the caravan down. I think I get into Dayton at 1-2 PM then a quick clean up and we will be ready to hit the road.

Maybe I'll have to get rotors too to cut down on the dust even more. I don't use any wheel cleaners, just car soap/water. My wheels have a pretty good wax coat on them inside & out.

I haven't got the LED mirrors yet.

I did receive my Gilmour Foam Gun today. I will try it out when I wash my daily driver soon.

Looks like we have a really good group already!

me
Drew
heinz
1RJ
bubba
SIM
EM
BBA
LIB
maybe DE
plus the other guys I invited. This is sweet! OH COME ON SUNSHINE!

Places to eat on Friday after the cruise in...

Texas Roadhouse
Ruby Tuesdays
Red Robin (YUM!)
Quaker Steak and Lube (YUM YUM!)
Greenies (a local bar/restaurant.... pretty good food)

Now we could head back up to Loveland and go to The Works. Its a pizza joint and damn is it good! Used to be the Loveland Public Works building... and you can tell. Really good food, worth the trip back to Loveland for me.

I think thats about all unless we went to 32 but thats the wrong way for most folks.

FenwickHockey65 · 06-03-2010, 08:05 PM

I should be there too.

tailspin · 06-03-2010, 08:48 PM

If the weather is good, I'll be there..

I'm thinking of taking 68 to 28 avoiding the interstate if you'd like to join me along the way.

Which restaurant has windows to let us keep an eye on our cars?

The Works Pizza works for me.

I can't make it that day, doing my hair.

tailspin · 06-03-2010, 10:53 PM

Darth Emma I bet you can't wait for those wheels. Seems like your not having the best of luck with them. I can't wait to see them when they are finally mounted.. Hopefully, this problem will be resolved soon.
