Thanks! I hate putting it off but with school and everything I can't plan until I have full details. Thanks for the info! I'll be looking!

I'm going to see if he is willing to join our caravan for a little while as we roll through Little Rock to get some good footage.

If he does this, though, I want to make sure everyone is aware that he is actually trying to get footage for us, and NOT that he's trying to race anyone. He would be zipping between cars to get footage. So, I want to make sure his and everyone else's safety is taken care of first.

What are y'alls thoughts?

Alright, I talked to my friend today and he's a go for meeting up with us to get some more video of the caravan for me.

It turns out the Wal-Mart Superstore we're stopping at in Little Rock to top off the tanks is only about 5 minutes from his place. He'll meet us there, and I will introduce him to all the drivers so everyone knows what he looks like and tell everyone that he's not just some shmuck on a sport bike trying to race us.

It's a SUPER STORE ..... they have a Gas Station there..... so everyone can fill up.

And I always swore I would never let my car anywhere near a wal-mart parking lot

Oh well, I guess as long as we're surrounded by 100 of our closest friends' Camaros, we should be okay, Mike

We did the Wallmart Lot on the way to Fest I and got some great pics.

Only problem was we couldn't get out of the lot and back on the road. I thing the stop light let 2 cars out at a time.

The Wallmart shoppers were pissed...

[TAG UR IT]

OMG that was horrible. I have pix of that line too....moving /..... NOWHERE.

Whosever idea it was to go into that lot...well, damnit man!

[Happy Pappy]

The Wal Mart lot is just a place to meet up with Justin's Bud. There is a good size Shell gas station across the street from the Wal Mart to get gas. If we can all fit in the Shell station this would be best and getting back on the freeway will be easy......

[Sir Nuke]

Sam, jsut point the lead car in teh direction you need ior want us to go....and we will be right behind them.....we are pretty good at "follow the learder"!!
