We might be up for this.It will depend on a few things,such as the exact date ,and when and where Camarofest 3 will be.

[Blackhawk]

I could do this. Won't know until around Thanksgiving, but it shouldn't be a problem.

[VenomInside]

Depending when exactly in May (hopefully in the middle or end), i could be down for this.

[KidKilowatt]

It's a maybe !

[Toasty]

We might be up for this.It will depend on a few things,such as the exact date ,and when and where Camarofest 3 will be.

Crossing my fingers that C5F3 is here... which will likely push it into early June to account for the weather.

[Sweet SS]

I used to live in Columbia, SC. I know people in Charlotte. It's a maybe for me.

[Skyfox]

Sharyn and I are also a maybe.

[DarkSS]

I am in. It's worth it just for Zmax!!!

[Bubbles]

I'm game! My dad lives near there!

[Orange5thGen]

Hey I just did this today just arrived in Greensboro, NC and we stopped 5 times for breaks for Grant and family. It only took me 12hrs but we were cruising a little faster than speed limit.

Count Ginger and I in and we will meet up for the trip more than likely on 64...

Keep in mind there is also a big gathering at Richard Childress Racing.... I'd like to hit this one....

[KATHY63]

Richard Childress is having a gathering in NC? We have been there and met him and it is a really cool place. We went to Dale Earnhardt's dealership and DEI. Would love to go again.

Scott, Richard Childress Racing is one of the sponsors of the 5th Gen Camaros of the Carolinas! Their president "Camaro Freak" (also a Scott) is putting together the details. Hopefully it will include something with Richard Childress Racing! Stay tuned.
