Revised dates POLL: Mercury Marine visit - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

Paul Workman · 08-04-2014

Dominic has been spear-heading this event, and has picked September 19th as the day for the Mercury Marine BBQ and tours. So, here's hoping we can pick a rally point and cruise into Fond du Lac together on September 19th.

Can we have a show of hands so we can get an idea how many are going to be coming?? This should be a chance to showcase our cars in grand style. Hope to see as many as can make it show up!

And, stay tuned as the date gets closer for more info on details.

Paul.

It is possible that I can make it from the Twin Cities. What time would everything start as it is about a 5-5 1/2 hour ride from here?

Gary,

Yes, 10am. And please spread the word to any other Badger ZRs up there.

4CamJon · 08-05-2014

If I can make it I will have to come in the night before. I will know in the next week or so if I will be there.

Looks like we can update our list of attendees. Also coming up
will be Pete and Marc H. That brings us to 9 ZRs. This is shaping up to be a neat event. Anyone else?

As noted I am in. If we are to be at Mercury Marine in Fon Du Lac by 10 AM, that means we need to leave the Lake Bluff, IL area around 8 AM or earlier. It is about 2 hours to get there from Lake Bluff, 120 miles. Should we meet at the Lake Forest Oasis on I-94 northbound at about 7:30 AM and caravan up? (It is just north of the Route 60/Townline Road exit for Lake Forest)

Also, Dom do you know what building/address we will be going to and what the agenda for the day will be yet? -- Bob

I just stopped and talked to Vern about going and he is a maybe also with us leaving on Thursday afternoon and meeting you at the factory on Friday.
I will update you in the next week if it is a go or not.
Vern has a dark red 91 and I have a bright red 91.
