Madvetter,

Sunoco is the only 94 Octane station here that I know of. There are Sunoco's all over the place in the Cleveland area.

Madvetter,

I could not find if there was a Sunoco Station there (exit 159 on I-75S), but there is a ton of restaurants there so I imagine there is as many stations as you could expect.

Michigan Caravan

[size=3][color=Blue]
All you Michigan caravaners. I'm hoping to be able to attend this years Z06 fest. Not sure if I'll be able to get the time off as yet, but working on it.
I was just in BG for the CAC Cruise fest. Stayed at the Baymont Inn. Decent place, although I'm not too sure they appreciated out driveway etchings, aka-burnouts. They weren't too concerned until someone burned 2 ruts in the blacktop in front of the entrance.
Anyway, if I'm able to, I wouldn't mind hooking up with the rest of you to go down. I'll be leaving Holt, Mi, it's just south of Lansing. Anyone leaving from the Lansing area?

There is a Sunoco within 10 miles of x159. I cannot remember the exact exit but the sign is large enough.

I will be bringing my 2 way radios with us. If anybody else has them, bring em'! this will cut down on cell bill

I think I paid 35 to 40 bucks at Best Buy.

In OHIO again for the week but will be back in time for Wednesday!

I have some ICOM personal radios. They are more complex than necessary but seem to work. Have a portable CB as well -- least can monitor 19 and see what the truckers have to say.

Two zones on 75S just before the border. Both taper to 2 lanes. One shifts left, the other shifts right. Just have to stay in the suggested truck lane otherwise you run the rumble strips -- probably not too much fun in a Z.

Lots of radar on this trip -- 8 so far. Always in the center, and usually on a down hill segment. A few use some type of laser that must be instant on. I picked up on using radar but he was holding a laser unit. Go figure.
