I'm looking to buy some parts in the Fargo, ND area and shipping is cost-prohibitive due to size (not weight). Anyone in that area heading east anytime soon? Or to the challenge? I'm in southwest Indiana, but could meet within an hour or two circumference.

I just did 90% of that route this weekend. Unfortunately no need to go south/southwest anytime soon. Good luck

I can do southern Wisconsin to northern Illinois/Chicago of someone can drag it down here.

I could likely get it from appleseed to SW indiana (on the way to the challenge).

I might be able to help with the first leg. Send me some details.

Sure thing!  It's a downpipe back exhaust system in three pieces.  Shipping was going to be almost $350, which seems insane.

Thanks for all the help, everyone! The exhaust has been paid for and is pending pick up, and will eventually be heading my way.

My buddy in ND is picking it up, I'll be in touch with Appleseed when I have it in hand.

Sounds good. PMs are wonky for me.

FYI, I just double checked and google mapping the most direct route from Chicago to Gainsville vs. mapping Chicago to my work to Gainsville adds a grand total of three minutes to the drive.  If you're coming through between 7:00a,-4:40PM I'll be there, otherwise I can meet you there or just let you know a safe place to drop it.  Either way I'd greatly appreciate it!

Same!  It's been a while since I've hung out here, but it's great to be back.

Enough people have picked up trains in Minneapolis for me, I figured it was time to step up.

Working on plans for this, looks like timing is going to be a little tight but hopefully we can still pull it off.

Robbie, I sent you a PM, let me know if you get it.

I'm still game on the weekends.  Lots of Halloween parties this month but those aren't till nighttime, so no worries.

I did not get any PMs? which is odd, because they normally work fine for me.

You all berkeleying rock.  Seriously.  The GRM express came though in a big way, and that Challenge car is seriously, seriously cool.  Good luck down there!  Wish I could have made it down.  Maybe next year.
