    Meeting at Discovery Mills Mall outside the Bass Pro Shop at 8:30 AM. We will be leaving for Road Atlanta no later than 9:15.

    Post up if you plan on caravaning.

    If anyone has a tent or chairs, bring them. Also, coolers with Water, Soda, Beer, etc...

    If anyone has a portable grill, that would also be really good. Post up what you are bringing so we can try to arrange everything.

    Are you referring to Formula D Competition at Road Atlanta this weekend?

    Formula D - Round 2 <--link

    The actual drifting event isn't until 3pm and after, do you really wanna get there that early?

    ^^ this is for Saturday.

    We were wanting to get out there early enough to watch the other racing that's happening that morning and to be able to get a good parking spot. We did the same thing last year and had great parking.

    I'll be there.

    It is early, but it gets crowded pretty quick. The earlier we get there, the better chance of getting an ideal parking spot, and an Ideal place to set up tents and watch the events from.

    Also, last year was fun watching the Panoz and Formula Fords run before the drifting started.

    Sure, I'm a cheap bastard! I'd take a coupon if you still have one.

    My friends from work are going too, so I'm gonna see if I can get them to come too.
    Yeah, 8:30 is kinda early...considering where I live, I mean

    Talked to Alex and he said I can borrow the grill, so I will bring that, the banner, and a couple of chairs. I also have a small cooler that I can bring, and a large box of Bubba Burgers. I will go out tomorrow and get Hotdogs as well.

    Can someone bring Hamburger buns, and Hotdog buns and condiments?

    I work next to a Subway...I could just steal their condiment bottles. Anyone like chipotle ranch dressing?:naughty:

    Nah, but seriously...let me talk to "the wife" and ask her for some of our food money to spend on other people. (hmmmm, gotta figure out how to better phrase that)

    I was kidding about the ketchup, I don't want to take from your "food money". I can bring some brauts, hotdogs and buns. Do we need charcoal or is it propane? I will have plenty of beer for sure.

    LOL! Thanks for the compassion:wtc:

    But, I can go by Sam's and buy the jumbo-sized condiments, steal some chairs from my parents, and take a couple rolls of paper towels from the janitor's closet at work.:fawk:

    EDIT: I just found out that my job is a major sponsor for this event, so I volunteered and I'm getting in free! Gotta work 9-12 on Friday, then I'm all clear for the rest of the time!
    Sorry, had to brag for a sec

    Seriously, that is creepy from your avatar.


    Anyways, I bought about $40 of beer, some chips, two chairs, 1 tarp tent. Went to Wallymart and bought the chairs and tent and was charged for 1 chair and 1 tent. Sweet!!

    What's the plan for food? I got the beverages.
