Thanks, BOY 22 inches and 8 lbs, 9 ozs. My third. I have a 5 and 3.5 year old. I had to run back home and pick up my two kids and go pick up the wife and baby from the hospital. He was born on Tuesday, my wife spent the last four days at the hospital (C-section). I need sleep! I should get a good night sleep some time in October 2008.

Next Saturday when we leave C&C and venture out for a drive, I will bring four 2 way radios. They will be used to communicate with four cars:
  • Front Look Out at least ¼ mile or one stop light ahead of the pack. Watches the traffic and guides us to our destination.
  • Middle Race Starter setting up two to three cars to race to the next stop light. Communicates with the Front and Back Look Out cars
  • Back Look Out at least ¼ mile or one stop light behind the pack. Make sure that pack stays together and informs the Front and Race starter all is clear.
  • My car; I will rotate the three other 2 way radio holders to either position in the pack or be a part of the race. I will make sure every one gets a chance to race and have fun. I will also make sure that the front car keeps us on our route to our destination.

The radios can stay with the drivers until we arrive at our destination or we can pass them to another car depending upon how many cars we have.

I have done this several other times and it always works well. It is much safer and less likely we will get a ticket.

I will discuss some other items that we can incorporate into our drive when we gather.

We also need three video takers (GTGUY can go with the LP640) and threrfore need two more. They should be in the cars that have the most HP (not mine because I weight too much already).

We can get a role call of who will be present towards the end of the week.
