Your all welcome, now if it goes smoothly I'll be happy. A couple of you sharp fellas asked about the previously mentioned Saturday 13WW lot pass/sticker. I didn't get them yet, will do and get it to you Friday or Sat. If you are one of the 30 parking there, no one will prevent you from driving into the lot, find us and park. It should be easy to find us, we will be with all the Crossfires, couldn't resist
Anyway, Sat parking is not the big deal that Friday was, in Royal Oak they would be looking to tow our cars, Sat we paid for the spots.
I'm posting some pictures we took tonight on Woodward, it's already packed with cars and cruisers:

Wow, looks like the cars will have a good spot, but we may have to fight for one near the street to watch the cars going by, lol!
We're going to cruise in the Red Magnum tonight (Tues.)
Wednesday is supposed to be Corvette night, according to the Corvette forum. We'll be in the new blue Z06 (there may be a few of those). I heard Wednesday is the only day it may rain. Good for Friday & Saturday I guess!
Tom, I think the packet was sent to people who are going to Woody's on Friday. It's a parking tag for the window and directions to the lot and resturaunt.

I've got 16 discount coupons for the Friday Museum group and plan on meeting you there around 12:30ish.

Driveway car wash offer still stands anytime Fri for out-of-towners needing to freshen up their rides. Drive can fit 8 to 10 X-Fires and garage 'fridge is stocked. PM me if you want to wash your car, and I'll give you directions - approx 10 minutes from hotel / museum.

Ann - Got my stuff yesterday also. Thanks

Harbor, originally I thought we were meeting at the hotel at 12 noon, then going over to the Museum. Either way is fine, I would just like to see everyone on the same page.

Thanks, James

Someone please decide what channel to use the FRS radios on please! Just say a number!

James, If I understand correctly, Harbor is working at Chrysler HQ that day and he has arranged for group coupons when we get there about 12:30.

We are still meeting at the hotel Marriott at 12:00noon for anyone who wants to go to the museum as a group. See you at the hotel at 12noon.

Please assign a channel number that would be best in the Detroit area............I'm bringing two radios and would like to use them, certainly if we get off the beaten path.

This will be password protected so your information will only be available to members attending WDC.
ATTENTION........
RPM Has sent a PM to everyone on the spreadsheet along with a password to access it.
Open it and print it and keep it with you from the moment you leave your home.

Gonna be a busy weekend!

On top of what we have going on, I just found out that the Challenger crew is going to converge upon Woodward Thursday night, starting from the museum around 5 P.M.


This just keeps getting better and better!

Find the radio station Oldies WOMC (FM) 104.9 on the Internet. You can start your weekend early.

Update on weekend:
Didn't read over to see if what's posted, Oldedoc2u is attending, but his wife is getting over a bug, she and the wife of their friends (who are joining us) won't. Rickz can't attend, family/grandchildren come ahead of a XF. Rapps yellow CF (me) had to give up our hotel room. The teenager's plans fell through.
The weather looks GOOD.

I believe that myself, KcKey12, and cabinisle are planning to meet you folks at the hotel ~12pm and then head to the museum.

Ann, I canceled my hotel reservation as well. I will not be needing it Friday night and will be heading home Saturday night.
