I'll run the car if there are spots free. I would rather let others who actually need the time to run before me.

So I know it's Battle Born QUATTRO, but any prejudices about making it Battle Born FWD? Starting to get a little late stage and the Coupe isn't one color yet, so I may be joining along in the GTI. It gets 30mpg and has A/C while still being pretty quick and a blast to drive, not a bad second choice.

Knowing our group we'll drag behind like usual anyways :lol: .I think our plan is 2-3AM just so we can get down there around 10. My roommate cooper want's to do some stuff early to his S4 with my bro before the festivities happen. I'll let you know if we do change plans to leave later.

The VAG gods are conspiring against me so I don't bring a non-VAG product. I've now had 4 different places cancel my order for a radiator for the Merc, I'm pretty much at the point where OEM is the only option at $350+ and who knows when I could get it. That and I'm troubleshooting a hard-start issue with CIS. So, I might be in the VW again...At least I'll have a vehicle to haul my CF hood home if they get through customs by the BBQ.

On a more positive note, I planned my route and it's at about 2700 miles round trip plus whatever I drive in Vegas. Should be fun!

I'm not giving up just yet, remembered that I had an extra Griffin sitting around for the Porsche!
I still have a hard-start issue I need to diagnose before I feel comfortable...

Utah peoples where are we meeting on Friday morning? I look forward to the drive down every year and don't want to miss it!

What about somewhere in the Orem area say around 8? I think that's what we did last year. The Maverik off 800 North exit in Orem
