I did as much wrenching as I could. got a couple pics in here and there, and probably forgot most of it anyway. I still think it was worth it though. had fun, met a bunch of peeps, built a car in 3 days, and any questions I come up with have been answered on this forum 100 times. have fun at the school . . . .
Yeah I may have messed that up? I used the FFR site accommodations section and chose the Holiday Inn on 5353 Gateway. It looks a long ways on google maps but it also says it's only 12 minutes away. Not terrible. I've never been to Flint neither... so it might be fun to have some scenic route drives to see parts of it.

I'd rather see the car complete next weekend than have all the pictures/notes and to me being able to put the whole car together in 3 days is pretty amazing already. There is also the benefit of having my father in law with me. We get twice the eyes, hands, and experience to carry back with us. I've also started reaching out and have a couple meetings lined up with local builders so getting their perspectives have me less worried about trying to capture every thought via notes at the school. My first one of those meetings is today. I'm pretty excited to see one of these machines up close.

I should have asked Amber this but do we bring our own lunch?
