Red face Two in one weekend, a third? NOT!

We had two NELOCers in accidents this past weekend, Cathy and RockaLex.

And I'm not superstitious, but they say things happen in threes.

So this is a hope that we all drive safely in the next few weeks, especially in our caravans to Carlisle and when driving around Carlisle. I know we're all excited, but we're going to have to be EXTRA careful.

Please review the caravan suggestion thread. Remember, minimize the tailgating ...and if you ARE following someone closely, please be very attentive. Don't get distracted by the cellphone, the stereo, other modded cars, or a big behind (fellas know what I'm talkin' about ).

Just don't want any of us to be that third accident, if at all possible.

Happy travels!
------------

Calling all vidoecameras!

Speaking of spirited driving, we need to start collecting some more rolling footage (remember the vids from last year? ). So the next North meets South NELOC meet will incorporate some planned footage gathering...whether we're in Harrisburg or Atlantic City (late June? mid-July?). If we can do a group caravan right after the Carlisle meet, we might even capture a little on Saturday.

Stay tuned!

Sidenote: Is Ming coming to Carlisle? Good lawd he can take some nice pix.

oooh there will be a Drift Off at Fed Ex this year? Went to it 2 years ago and had a really good time. The drifting was crazy!!!

Kev-I read the caravan rules myself since I'll be heading the Sat one to Carlisle. Good read btw, Carlos made me read it ,lol I think we are all adults here (I like to think ) and have some sense not to act out like a lot of the young kids we will be in the presence of this weekend. Anyone rides my azz, there will be hell to pay...don't mess with the irish girl! LOL

I believe its the 1st weeknd of June. Probably a saturday. I was on the Formula D site and it just has a TBD next to the name in June so i guess they dont have it up to the public yet. I am going there to help my friends promotion team. If landover isnt too far for you guys come through.

Landover is right in my 'hood, 20 mins from me...and not far from most of us.

But June's a little crazy, so really it's more a matter if I'm in town that weekend.

Let's see FedEx Field is about 5 miles from me 2 exits down. Hmmm, but I don't see no dates posted. Anyone know? I never been to one, then again I maybe the oldest person there if I do go. Anyway. Info!!!!

Cat so sorry for the accident. I'm sure they will take good care of her.

yeah basicly...if anyone has seen me driving sunday/today you would have gone, "blair, driving the speed limit?" "Not tailgating?" "What the hell has this world come to?"

had someone riding my *** tho sunday night....they got a light show n didnt come near me after that. Im always worried about tards behind me not me hitting someone in front(alrdy did that). Guess this week i should finally wire up those extra brake lights i put in my bumper huh?

Someone should check to make sure it is at FedEx. I was only assuming based on previous events and where SCCA hold AutoX events.
