First posted updated with more info, meeting time/location, etc!

Re: MitsuStyle Fall 2019 Cruise - September 28/29 - Superior, WI
 

I’m in! Haven’t booked yet though. Just going to be me, no family.
Edit: website was down but I called and booked a room with two beds. If anyone is looking to share a room I'll have a spare bed.

Re: MitsuStyle Fall 2019 Cruise - September 28/29 - Superior, WI
 

AWESOME! Noble or Tesla?

Re: MitsuStyle Fall 2019 Cruise - September 28/29 - Superior, WI
 

Good question. And I don’t know haha.

Re: MitsuStyle Fall 2019 Cruise - September 28/29 - Superior, WI
 

My vote says Noble.

Re: MitsuStyle Fall 2019 Cruise - September 28/29 - Superior, WI
 

Noble!

Re: MitsuStyle Fall 2019 Cruise - September 28/29 - Superior, WI
 

Tesla!

Re: MitsuStyle Fall 2019 Cruise - September 28/29 - Superior, WI
 

I'll consider taking the Noble if it runs perfect the next two months. But realistically I'd probably have more fun driving the Tesla because I wouldn't be worried about anything. Least reliable car vs most reliable car.

Re: MitsuStyle Fall 2019 Cruise - September 28/29 - Superior, WI
 

Was on the fence about going but decided to go to Cozumel for another Ironman event that weekend instead.

Re: MitsuStyle Fall 2019 Cruise - September 28/29 - Superior, WI
 

Noble

Re: MitsuStyle Fall 2019 Cruise - September 28/29 - Superior, WI
 

I'll have to play it by ear, but if I have the Z4 done, I'd probably join and take that.

Re: MitsuStyle Fall 2019 Cruise - September 28/29 - Superior, WI
 

I'm hoping to bring the 1g if it's ready for this kind of journey by then.

Re: MitsuStyle Fall 2019 Cruise - September 28/29 - Superior, WI
 

Well Andrew, which is it? :lol:

Unfortunately, the lunch place I picked in Hinckley is going out of business after half a century or something like that!

Re: MitsuStyle Fall 2019 Cruise - September 28/29 - Superior, WI
 

Not sure what I'll take now, my transmission has a hole in the bottom of it now.

Re: MitsuStyle Fall 2019 Cruise - September 28/29 - Superior, WI
 

:(

Are new FWD transmissions easy to come by these days?

Re: MitsuStyle Fall 2019 Cruise - September 28/29 - Superior, WI
 

Yeaaaaa no. All DSM shit is getting hard to find these days. Time to fix it and sell!

Got it pulled out yesterday, going to drop off my backup Trans with Chad and see if he can refresh it.

Re: MitsuStyle Fall 2019 Cruise - September 28/29 - Superior, WI
 

Mere weeks away at this point! Tentative lunch plans are set but I do need to get them a more accurate headcount. Who's rolling solo? Who's brining their spouse? Who's picking up a lot lizard along the way?! :lol:

Re: MitsuStyle Fall 2019 Cruise - September 28/29 - Superior, WI
 

99% sure I'll be in the Tesla at this point, can't fix the damn radiator plug leak. I'll be riding solo unless someone wants to ride with me.

Re: MitsuStyle Fall 2019 Cruise - September 28/29 - Superior, WI
 

Gotcha, sorry to hear you're still struggling with Noble issues! What's the deal this time? I'm apparently not in the loop about your leaky radiator plug.

We'll be stopping for lunch in Askov shortly after passing through Hinckley. How long will you need at the charging station? I'm wondering if we should all stop, or just have you peel off and join back up for lunch a few minutes late.

Re: MitsuStyle Fall 2019 Cruise - September 28/29 - Superior, WI
 

My radiator didn't come with a plug, and I put a BSP thread one in, but it still drips like every half minute or so. Really slow and probably not a huge deal, but I want it sealed completely before taking a trip that far.

I'm thinking 10-15 mins tops, because I'll have almost 300 miles range to start the morning. That should get me an easy 100 mile boost. I don't mind either way on the stop.

Re: MitsuStyle Fall 2019 Cruise - September 28/29 - Superior, WI
 

OK sounds good. I'll get to working on finalizing the route and timeline so we figure out what works best.

Re: MitsuStyle Fall 2019 Cruise - September 28/29 - Superior, WI
 

I've updated the route to now be right around 210 miles and include a better mix of roads. I also moved the meeting time back to 8:30am rather than 8am. Please arrive with a full tank/battery, plan to grab a quick/light breakfast, then we'll pass out map packets and hit the road!

Andrew - You'll have to break off from the group just prior to lunch, then meet up with us at the lunch spot. We'll be hitting an extra set of twisties while you're charging to burn up a little time and in theory arrive to lunch right about the same time you do. I'll coordinate with you so you know where to detour.

If you'd like an advance copy of the map packet to review/print please let me know! Either post or PM me your email address.

Re: MitsuStyle Fall 2019 Cruise - September 28/29 - Superior, WI
 

Please DM me a copy for my parents to plan with!

S2k is washed up and back to street mode, track tires are nice and fried :)

Re: MitsuStyle Fall 2019 Cruise - September 28/29 - Superior, WI
 

The week is upon us!

Re: MitsuStyle Fall 2019 Cruise - September 28/29 - Superior, WI
 

Noble is fixed, but rain forecasted this weekend, would not be a fun drive on semi slick tires. So 100% driving the tesla.

When are the southern folks going to be driving through Des Moines area? I could cruise up to the Minnesota border with them where I'll need to stop for a quick charge. There is a C8 at the local dealer starting at noon on Friday, was planning to stop there for a bit and head out after.

Re: MitsuStyle Fall 2019 Cruise - September 28/29 - Superior, WI
 

At this point I think it'll only be Andrew + family coming up in his Evo IX, but they'll be leaving TX Weds evening and arriving in MN sometime Thursday.

White girl bait!

Re: MitsuStyle Fall 2019 Cruise - September 28/29 - Superior, WI
 

There is a group meeting at Surly on Friday at 6:30pm for dinner and drinks, if anyone wants to join us. I'll probably be there until 9ish.

Re: MitsuStyle Fall 2019 Cruise - September 28/29 - Superior, WI
 

That sounds fun! It's not likely we'll be there in time, but if anything changes I'll let you guys know. I plan to take a half-day, but my wife is TBD at this point. Otherwise, see everyone by 8:30am on Saturday!

Andrew - There is a Tesla charging station not too far away from the meeting point.

Re: MitsuStyle Fall 2019 Cruise - September 28/29 - Superior, WI
 

Forecast is looking better, especially for Saturday. Drive the Noble!
