Hey my Canuck Brothers and Sisters,

Several of us Bullrun fans plan to be at the starting line to see the beginning of the Bullrun rally July 10th-11th.  

Anyone from Windsor to Halifax should make the drive.

After the rally starts, we plan to do our own 'Superfan Cruise'.  We would leave New York after the start on July 11th and drive (along with the Bullrun cars depending on thier route) together down to Ocean City.  There we will be two pit stops and/or pick up points along the way.  These will serve as places for us all to catch up again on the road, and others to come and go from the cruise.  The first stop will be along the New Jersey Turnpike at a rest stop (yet to be determined).  The second checkpoint will be at Dover International Raceway Casino.  There is a ton of places to park here and it is a nice casino we can take a 'breather' at.  From Dover we will continue down to Ocean City MD to party it up BIGTIME and stay overnight.  Then on Sunday July 12th everyone can leave for thier respective homes.

Matthew - If you can fly your ass out to New York I am sure you can ride with us.  Maybe even me if I am solo.

I will be up to convoy with anyone from the Toronto/Buffalo area to and from the cruise.

Some lucky people will be at the Bullrun pre-party on July 10th.  the rest of us will filter into New York that day and can meet up ourselves that night.

So who's in?

-Rotary Mike w/ Hen depending on work

-Racertci

-Liberty Speed (in until Philly)

-Team Pontiac (most likely)

-IonRedline (most likely)

-Team GTO (probably)

-Aaron (checking on flights)

-Matthew (checking on flights)

-Escalade007 (may trek up from Texas)
