This date and location are iffy unless someone in Columbus area can step forward with an indoor location (i.e. big garage). Winter weather being what it is, it's a bit much to expect owners flung across the buckeye state to brave the trip without having the assurance of a toasty destination at journey's end.
If folks are willing to forgo the convenient central location of Columbus, I can probably persuade my friend Marc Schmidt at Ohio Technical College to let us meet there. OTC (
Cleveland Technical College | Automotive Training | Technical schools in Ohio | OTC) is a large training facility very close to downtown Cleveland. Marc heads up the alternative fuel program there. He's knee deep in CNG, EV and hybrid stuff. They have 3 insights there one of which is completely exposed so the engine, IMA and battery pack is visible. Convenient freeway access.
So how about it? Can anyone furnish a hot winter spot in Columbus? Plan B, interest level for the Cleveland location above?
