Its a bit futher through Front Royal but there is a Cracker Barrel over by 66. I will put in a call to MC tonight the front royal native should be able to give some good ideas.

I most likely won't make it. If I get out of hanging out with family, I'll be practicing putting my car into a wall.

I was thinking something in one of these two shopping centers would probably be best: MAP

I wish that was the case, I share the GSL-SE with my dad and I havnt seen the car in over a year. I picked it up last night to get ready for this weekend and the front end just feels trashed.. It feels like its riding on the bump stops and will not track so I assume the idler arm or something is broken and the diver side tire has belts showing on the inside of the tire. This sucks!

I was hoping for a Sonic in Front Royal but the closest would be Winchester. Those damn commercials start the craving and there are none around here to fix it!

I'll meet up for breakfast Rocky. Another member I've met, carbonfiber - Erik, is coming out, but sans RX. He had it running nice but some issue recently came up unfortunately.

Me and the guys I'm bringing will be running a little late. We will be leaving Woodbridge at 8am sharp so don't leave Ihop without us. We will miss breakfast but I don't think we will be holding up the cruise at all. Also Rocky can you pm me your number. I have no ones phone number and need at least one just in case.
