Milwaukee, WI GTG, Saturday, Nov. 7th @ West Allis Auto Club

Anonymous — Fri, 06 Nov 2009 20:41:46 CST

Event details

Building use provided by - West Allis Auto Club (aka WAAC), 1721 South 100th Street, West Allis, WI 53214. (See map at http://www.westallisautoclub.com/contact.html)
Event host/coordinator - Chris Roth (6x6man), 262-617-1929
Date - Saturday, Nov. 7th, 2009
Hours - Club will open 8:00 am. We ask that work be finished by 8:00 pm.

Just a couple simple guidelines:

The West Allis Auto Club asks that you bring a bag of groceries OR give a $10 donation. These proceeds will be donated to the local food pantry in West Allis.
No alcohol allowed on premises
Everyone attending needs to sign a liability waiver. Anyone under the age of 18 that plans to attend without their parent/legal guardian, needs to print a hard copy of this document, have their parent/legal guardian sign it, and bring it along. Fail to do this and sorry, but you will be asked to leave.
Use of certain club equipment (basically things that use consumables) requires the payment of a small fee. These fees are very reasonable, typically between $1.00 - $3.00, and must be paid in cash. For example: Oil/filter/fluid disposal - $1, Torch - $2/5 min., Wire welder - $3/5 min, Sand blaster - $1/30 min, Steam cleaner - $5/30 min.
No vehicles can be left in the shop after the event ends

Directions

The West Allis Auto Club is located at 1721 South 100th Street, West Allis, WI 53214. (See map at http://www.westallisautoclub.com/contact.html)

If you are familiar with the Milwaukee area, we are located just south of the 'Zoo Interchange'.

From I-894, take the Greenfield Ave exit, head west one block to the first set of lights (not counting the lights at the on/off ramps), this will be 101st Street. Turn left (south) on to 101st Street. Just before 101st Street dead ends in the cul-de-sac, turn left (east) on to Maple St. Take Maple St to 100th Street, turn right (south) on to 100th Street which is the entrance to the club parking lot. Use the service door entrance at the north end of the building.

Parking

If the parking lot along the east side of the building is full, please park in the cul-de-sac or along 101st Street. Please DO NOT park in the lot to the south of the building (under the billboard.) We share the building with the West Allis Woodworkers Club, and the lot to the south of the building is for their use. Please do not park along Maple St or on 100th Street as they are narrow to begin with.

Shop Info

As for tools, like most GTG's, whatever you can bring of your own the better (please mark/identify your own tools.) The club is heated if the weather is cold (which it probably will be by Nov 7.), it is equipped with two hoists (one drive-on type, one two post type.), plenty of compressed air, parts washing tank, hyd press, oxy/acy torch, MIG and stick welders, sand blasting cabinet, spray booth, large (walk-in) powder coating oven, (4) floor jacks, (many) jack stands, (2) impact wrenches, COATS Tire Changer Machine and Wheel Balancer, Strut spring compressor, steam cleaner, gas caddy, transmission jack, etc. We do have an OBD I and II scan tool, but no VAG-COM. We do have many odd tools, (pulley pullers, ring compressors, timing lights, etc.), if you need something specific, ask and I'll let you know if we have one. I will warn you though, most of our stuff is for domestic and 'classic' (some call them klunker) vehicles.

You should plan on bringing your own hand tools (wrenches, screw drivers, etc.) The club does have containers for disposing of fluids/filters (no coolant flushes with the garden hose please, makes too much waste. Disposal of coolant caught, like during a TB/water pump change is acceptable though.)

Since we are a not for profit organization, a small fee is charged for items that use consumables (torch $2/5 min, welder $3/5 min, sand blaster $1/30 min, $1 fluid/filter disposal, etc.) We do have a computer in the office, but no internet connection available. There is a TV in the office and we do have Dish service.

As of 9/14/09, our drive-on hoist is out of service due to a lift cable showing signs of wear. This means that we are currently down to the one functioning two post hoist at this time. We are currently looking into the costs involved in repairing or replacing this drive-on hoist. I'm doing everything possible to ensure that we will have a drive-on hoist available for this event. If we can't use the hoist as a hoist, we can at least use it as a bay.

Depending on the work being done, we should be able to get up to 6 cars in the mechanical shop at a time. There are only two overhead doors into the mechanical shop, so we will need to coordinate the longer jobs in the front stalls.

You MUST check with Chris Roth (6x6man) before pulling any cars into the building.

Rocket Chip Waiting List

If you would like Jeff to work his magic on your TDI, place your name on the following list. We need at least 10 NEW tunes to make it worth Jeff's time to attend this event. Please place RE-TUNES at the bottom of the list. Please be aware that this list is not the order in which Jeff will perform the tunes, it is simply to know how many people are looking for Jeff's services. Jeff starts work when he is ready to do so. Jeff will have a sign in sheet at the event that will determine the order in which he performs the tunes. Consideration will be given new tunes vs. re-tunes, and to people that have long drives to get back home.

Food List

**** NO Fermented Beverages allowed. Sorry, this is Club policy. ****
Grills will be available for cooking out. The club has a microwave and a range for heating items but you'll need to bring your own pots/pans. The oven portion of the range works but it is used for baking small powder coated items, but I suppose it could be used for keeping things warm. Soda machine on site, (non-alcoholic) carry-ins are allowed though. There are many fast food places along Hwy 100 (8 blocks west of club) in West Allis.

RV parking

There is an RV park on the Wisconsin State Fair Park grounds which is close to the club. For more deatails visit http://www.wistatefair.com/building_facilities/RV_park.html

There is also a Wal-Mart not too far away. Not sure if this location allows overnight parking. Here's the contact info if you would like to check, (414) 529-0455, 4500 South 108Th Street Milwaukee, WI 53228.
(Happened to be here the other day. I drove through the parking lot looking for 'No overnight parking' signs, didn't see any. I saw a security patrol vehicle so I stopped him and asked if overnight parking was allowed at this location. He said that normally it was but you should check in with the manager in charge at that time. 6x6man 9/15/09)

Tool List / Shop Info

Post up what you need or what you can bring - nothing worse than spending 10 minutes looking for a tool for a 10 second job

If you plan on sitting down, bring a lawn chair! there are no chairs at the shop.

I have a pretty good assortment of SAE and Metric hand tools. But if you have your own I suggest you bring them. There is a Oxy/Acetylene torch, a Mig welder, and I have access to aluminum and sheet steel scrap to make up small brackets etc. There is a small table top drill press, large bench vise, and a bench grinder, a parts cleaning tank (filled with bio-diesel), a couple creepers, one set of ramps, six sets of jack stands, a couple hydraulic jacks, a 10 ton hydraulic press, a few extension cords, and a couple trouble lights (but again, I suggest you bring your own).

I will take care of all waste fluids disposal.

PEOPLE WHO BRING TOOLS:

I suggest you mark your tools in some way (especially extension cords) so they can be identified. It'll be easier to determine what belongs to whom at the GTG, and after when I start finding things that don't belong to me. I really don't need any more stuff.

Hotel Info

For anyone coming in from further out, and interested in staying over, here's a list of what 's available in Fond Du Lac.

Comfort Inn: 888 522 9472 / 920 921 4000 local. This was the Baymont, 20+ years old, near the 41/151 interchange, on the west side of 41. Has pool. Have had business associates stay there; no complaints.

Holiday Inn: 888 465 4329 / 920 923 1440 local. This place is pretty old and I don't think it has been redone since the 70's. "Next door" to the Baymont. Was (is?) a Holidome, has pool, lounge, restaurant.

Country Inn and Suites: 800 456 4000 / 920 924 8800. This is the newest one in town, maybe 5 yrs old. It's at the 41/Hickory St exit, about a mile south of the HI and Baymont.

Days Inn: 920 923 6790. On the east frontage road, at the 41 / Johnson St.(Hwy 23) interchange, just south of Johnson St. Been there a long time.

Microtel: 888 771 7171 / 920 929 4000. Less than 10 yrs old (I think). Also at the 41/151 interchange, on the east side of 41

Ramada: 920 923 3000. This is the old grand hotel in downtown FdL. Right smack in the middle of town, on Main St. Not bad, sister and brother-in-law stayed there a couple times during family functions. Good place if you want to party in FdL; all the bars are downtown. Downside, can be noisy if room is on Main St. Has pool, health club.

Super 8: 920 922 1088. On the east frontage road, at the 41 / Johnson St.(Hwy 23) interchange, just north of Johnson St. Been there about 15 years.

None of these places are more than a mile away from the shop, all are easy to get to.

Fondy also has a b'jillion places to eat.

Camping/RV's

There are two County Parks with camping:

Columbia, on Lake Winnebago, is in Pipe; about 10 miles N on US 151.
Waupun is about 25 miles SE of FDL on US 151.

They get pretty busy and reservations are recommended, phone numbers and info are here:

http://www.fdlco.wi.gov/Index.aspx?page=412

Apparently, there is an RV park at the Fairgrounds (I wasn't aware of it) on Martin Ave and US Hwy 45, about a mile or so East of the shop. (920) 929-3169

There is also a KOA S about 5 miles S of town on Hwy B, about 2 miles E of US Hwy 41. (920) 477-2300.

Directions

I'm not hard to find. The address is 196 Western Ave., on the corner of Western Ave. and Brooke St. if you want to Google, Map Quest, etc. I'm in the Metalink building/facility. The building is a block long - east to west, and about 1/3 block wide - north to south. There is a large storage/parking area all along the south/back side of the building.

I am located on the east end of the building, on the back/south side, off Brooke St. There is a small 8' garage door and a man-door on this side, that's me. I'll have signs out.

Now here's how to get to Fondy, and to the shop:

From the North: Take US 41 south. Exit at the Johnson St (Hwy 23) exit. Go left (east) on Johnson, cross over 41, and turn right (south) on Pioneer (the east frontage rd, by Schreiners restaurant). The second street on the left (there are no streets on the right) is Western, watch for the McClone Insurance Group sign. Turn left on Western. About a mile, and three stop signs later, you'll cross a set of RR tracks, and you'll see the plant ahead on the right. Turn right at the second street after the tracks. That's Brooke St, once you're past the building, turn right into the lot.

From the East: Come into town on Hwy 23 / Johnson St. The traffic light by Festival Foods is light number 1. The 5th light is Main St., there will be a Walgreen's on your right, on the NW corner. The 6th light is three blocks ahead, so if you're not in the right lane, you should move over now. The 6th light, just before the bridge, is Military Rd. DON'T GO OVER THE BRIDGE!!. Turn right (north) on Military. Almost immediately, after you turn right on Military, you will turn left (west) on Kelly. Just after that there will be a stop sign, that is Brooke St. Turn left (south) on Brooke. Continue south, through the stop light (but only when it's green!). When you get to the stop sign you will see the plant office building (light blue and grey w/the Metalink sign) across the street on the right, SW corner. Go past the building and turn right, into the lot.

From the Southwest (Madison): Take US 151 north. When you get to the 151/41 interchange 151 will become Military Rd. and 151 will split off and join 41 south. Stay on MILITARY, and continue into town.

From the South: Get off at the FIRST Military Rd exit by Mercury Marine.

From the South & Southwest combined: Continue into town on Military, past Fleet Farm. About a mile from 41, you'll cross a set of RR tracks, go through a traffic light where Military jinks to the left. Two blocks further up you will see a Credit Union on the left, on Wilkins St. The next street on the left, and it comes up fast, is Brooke. Turn left on Brooke and almost immediately turn left again, into the lot.

I just tried these directions from the south (was in the area anyway), and while they are technically correct, I thought they could use some streamlining to follow while driving.

Exit Highway 41 at Military Road - TURN RIGHT at end of exit
Follow Military Road for ~1 Mile until you cross RR tracks - Slow down and look ahead for BROOKE in ~2 blocks
TURN LEFT on BROOKE than IMMEDATELY TURN LEFT into parking lot

Hope that helps - Fix Until Broke

Right smack in the middle of town, on Main St. Not bad, sister and brother-in-law stayed there a couple times during family functions. Good place if you want to party in FdL; all the bars are downtown. Downside, can be noisy if room is on Main St. Has pool, health club.

Super 8: 920 922 1088. On the east frontage road, at the 41 / Johnson St.(Hwy 23) interchange, just north of Johnson St. Been there about 15 years.

None of these places are more than a mile away from the shop, all are easy to get to.

Directions

Here's a Google Map;

http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&geocode=&q=196+western+ave,+fond+du+lac,+wi&sll=43.772543,-88.454409&sspn=0.007236,0.018604&ie=UTF8&ll=43.774224,-88.454447&spn=0.007236,0.018604&t=h&z=16

I am located on the east end of the building, on the back/south side, off Brooke St. There is a small 8' garage door and a man-door on this side, that's me. I'll have signs out.

Now here's how to get to Fondy, and to the shop:

From the North: Take US 41 south. Exit at the Johnson St (Hwy 23) exit. Go left (east) on Johnson, cross over 41, and turn right (south) on Pioneer (the east frontage rd, by Schreiners restaurant). The second street on the left (there are no streets on the right) is Western, watch for the McClone Insurance Group sign. Turn left on Western. About a mile, and three stop signs later, you'll cross a set of RR tracks, and you'll see the plant ahead on the right. Turn right at the second street after the tracks. That's Brooke St, once you're past the building, turn right into the lot.

From the East: Come into town on Hwy 23 / Johnson St. The traffic light by the McDonalds is light number 1. The 4th light is Main St., there will be a new Walgreen's on your right, on the NW corner. (The old Walgreen's is on the left, across the street, on the SW corner.) The 5th light is three blocks ahead, so if you're not in the right lane, you should move over now. The 5th light, just before the bridge, is Military Rd. Turn right (north) on Military, DON'T GO OVER THE BRIDGE!!. Almost immediately, after you turn right on Military, you will turn left (west) on Kelly. Just after that there will be a stop sign, that is Brooke St. Turn left (south) on Brooke. Continue south, through the stop light (but only when it's green!). When you get to the stop sign you will see the plant office building (light blue and grey w/the Metalink sign) across the street on the right, SW corner. Go past the building and turn right, into the lot.

From the Southwest (Madison): Take US 151 north. When you get to the 151/41 interchange 151 will become Military Rd. and 151 will split off and join 41 south. Stay on MILITARY, and continue into town.

From the South: Get off at the FIRST Military Rd exit by Mercury Marine.

From the South & Southwest combined: Continue into town on Military, past Fleet Farm. About a mile from 41, you'll cross a set of RR tracks, go through a traffic light where Military jinks to the left. Two blocks further up you will see Credit Union One on the left, on Wilkins St. The next street on the left, and it comes up fast, is Brooke. Turn left on Brooke and almost immediately turn left again, into the lot.

I just tried these directions from the south (was in the area anyway), and while they are technically correct, I thought they could use some streamlining to follow while driving.

Exit Highway 41 at Military Road - TURN RIGHT at end of exit
Follow Military Road for ~1 Mile until you cross RR tracks - Slow down and look ahead for BROOKE in ~2 blocks
TURN LEFT on BROOKE than IMMEDATELY TURN LEFT into parking lot

Hope that helps - Fix Until Broke

Hotel Info

For anyone coming in from further out, and interested in staying over, here's a list of what 's available in Fond Du Lac.

Comfort Inn: 888 522 9472 / 920 921 4000 local. This was the Baymont, 20+ years old, near the 41/151 interchange, on the west side of 41. Has pool. Have had business associates stay there; no complaints.

Holiday Inn: 888 465 4329 / 920 923 1440 local. This place is pretty old and I don't think it has been redone since the 70's. "Next door" to the Baymont. Was (is?) a Holidome, has pool, lounge, restaurant.

Country Inn and Suites: 800 456 4000 / 920 924 8800. This is the newest one in town, maybe 5 yrs old. It's at the 41/Hickory St exit, about a mile south of the HI and Baymont.

Days Inn: 920 923 6790. On the east frontage road, at the 41 / Johnson St.(Hwy 23) interchange, just south of Johnson St. Been there a long time.

Econo Lodge: 800 424 6423 / 920 923 2020. East of 41 on Johnson St. (Hwy 23). Been there forever.

Microtel: 888 771 7171 / 920 929 4000. Less than 10 yrs old (I think). Also at the 41/151 interchange, on the east side of 41

Ramada: 920 923 3000. This is the old grand hotel in downtown FdL. Right smack in the middle of town, on Main St. Not bad, sister and brother-in-law stayed there a couple times during family functions. Good place if you want to party in FdL; all the bars are downtown. Downside, can be noisy if room is on Main St. Has pool, health club.

Super 8: 920 922 1088. On the east frontage road, at the 41 / Johnson St.(Hwy 23) interchange, just north of Johnson St. Been there about 15 years.

None of these places are more than a mile away from the shop, all are easy to get to.

Fondy also has a b'jillion places to eat. For the GTG I'll be doing brats 'n burgers on the grill, my coronary-on-a-plate German potato salad, baked beans, chips, soda etc.

Directions

I'm not hard to find. The address is 196 Western Ave., on the corner of Western Ave. and Brooke St. if you want to Google, Map Quest, etc. I'm in the Metalink building/facility. The building is a block long - east to west, and about 1/3 block wide - north to south. There is a large storage/parking area all along the south/back side of the building.

I am located on the east end of the building, on the back/south side, off Brooke St. There is a small 8' garage door and a man-door on this side, that's me. I'll have signs out.

Now here's how to get to Fondy, and to the shop:

From the North: Take US 41 south. Exit at the Johnson St (Hwy 23) exit. Go left (east) on Johnson, cross over 41, and turn right (south) on Pioneer (the east frontage rd, by Schreiners restaurant). The second street on the left (there are no streets on the right) is Western, watch for the McClone Insurance Group sign. Turn left on Western. About a mile, and three stop signs later, you'll cross a set of RR tracks, and you'll see the plant ahead on the right. Turn right at the second street after the tracks. That's Brooke St, once you're past the building, turn right into the lot.

From the East: Come into town on Hwy 23 / Johnson St. The traffic light by the McDonalds is light number 1. The 4th light is Main St., there will be a new Walgreen's on your right, on the NW corner. (The old Walgreen's is on the left, across the street, on the SW corner.) The 5th light is three blocks ahead, so if you're not in the right lane, you should move over now. The 5th light, just before the bridge, is Military Rd. Turn right (north) on Military, DON'T GO OVER THE BRIDGE!!. Almost immediately, after you turn right on Military, you will turn left (west) on Kelly. Just after that there will be a stop sign, that is Brooke St. Turn left (south) on Brooke. Continue south, through the stop light (but only when it's green!). When you get to the stop sign you will see the plant office building (light blue and grey w/the Metalink sign) across the street on the right, SW corner. Go past the building and turn right, into the lot.

From the Southwest (Madison): Take US 151 north. When you get to the 151/41 interchange 151 will become Military Rd. and 151 will split off and join 41 south. Stay on MILITARY, and continue into town.

From the South: Get off at the FIRST Military Rd exit by Mercury Marine.

From the South & Southwest combined: Continue into town on Military, past Fleet Farm. About a mile from 41, you'll cross a set of RR tracks, go through a traffic light where Military jinks to the left. Two blocks further up you will see Credit Union One on the left, on Wilkins St. The next street on the left, and it comes up fast, is Brooke. Turn left on Brooke and almost immediately turn left again, into the lot.

I just tried these directions from the south (was in the area anyway), and while they are technically correct, I thought they could use some streamlining to follow while driving.

Exit Highway 41 at Military Road - TURN RIGHT at end of exit
Follow Military Road for ~1 Mile until you cross RR tracks - Slow down and look ahead for BROOKE in ~2 blocks
TURN LEFT on BROOKE than IMMEDATELY TURN LEFT into parking lot

Hope that helps - Fix Until Broke

Shop Info

Lawn chairs, if you plan on sitting down. FWIW the floor of the shop is quite dusty (there is a wood work operation in the building just south of me.)

Creepers: I only have 2 and 1 is in pretty rough shape.

Ramps: I have one old set of metal ones and wood "steps" to use them with lower (ed) vehicles.

Work/trouble lights / extension cords. Again I have a some, but we'll probably need more.

I have 5 or 6 sets of jack-stands so we are probably covered there. I have two hydraulic jacks (the scissors/transmission type), one large and one small, so an extra one or two more wouldn't hurt.

I WILL TAKE CARE OF FLUIDS DISPOSAL - DGD

PEOPLE WHO BRING TOOLS:

I suggest you mark your tools in some way (especially extension cords) so they can be identified. It'll be easier to determine what belongs to whom at the GTG, and after when I start finding things that don't belong to me. I really don't need any more stuff.

Hotel Info

For anyone coming in from further out, and interested in staying over, here's a list of what 's available in Fond Du Lac.

Comfort Inn: 888 522 9472 / 920 921 4000 local. This was the Baymont, 20+ years old, near the 41/151 interchange, on the west side of 41. Has pool. Have had business associates stay there; no complaints.

Holiday Inn: 888 465 4329 / 920 923 1440 local. This place is pretty old and I don't think it has been redone since the 70's. "Next door" to the Baymont. Was (is?) a Holidome, has pool, lounge, restaurant.

Country Inn and Suites: 800 456 4000 / 920 924 8800. This is the newest one in town, maybe 5 yrs old. It's at the 41/Hickory St exit, about a mile south of the HI and Baymont.

Days Inn: 920 923 6790. On the east frontage road, at the 41 / Johnson St.(Hwy 23) interchange, just south of Johnson St. Been there a long time.

Econo Lodge: 800 424 6423 / 920 923 2020. East of 41 on Johnson St. (Hwy 23). Been there forever.

Microtel: 888 771 7171 / 920 929 4000. Less than 10 yrs old (I think). Also at the 41/151 interchange, on the east side of 41

Ramada: 920 923 3000. This is the old grand hotel in downtown FdL. Right smack in the middle of town, on Main St. Not bad, sister and brother-in-law stayed there a couple times during family functions. Good place if you want to party in FdL; all the bars are downtown. Downside, can be noisy if room is on Main St. Has pool, health club.

Super 8: 920 922 1088. On the east frontage road, at the 41 / Johnson St.(Hwy 23) interchange, just north of Johnson St. Been there about 15 years.

None of these places are more than a mile away from the shop, all are easy to get to.

Fondy also has a b'jillion places to eat.

Directions

I'm not hard to find. The address is 196 Western Ave., on the corner of Western Ave. and Brooke St. if you want to Google, Map Quest, etc. I'm in the Metalink building/facility. The building is a block long - east to west, and about 1/3 block wide - north to south. There is a large storage/parking area all along the south/back side of the building.

I am located on the east end of the building, on the back/south side, off Brooke St. There is a small 8' garage door and a man-door on this side, that's me. I'll have signs out.

Now here's how to get to Fondy, and to the shop:

From the North: Take US 41 south. Exit at the Johnson St (Hwy 23) exit. Go left (east) on Johnson, cross over 41, and turn right (south) on Pioneer (the east frontage rd, by Schreiners restaurant). The second street on the left (there are no streets on the right) is Western, watch for the McClone Insurance Group sign. Turn left on Western. About a mile, and three stop signs later, you'll cross a set of RR tracks, and you'll see the plant ahead on the right. Turn right at the second street after the tracks. That's Brooke St, once you're past the building, turn right into the lot.

From the East: Come into town on Hwy 23 / Johnson St. The traffic light by the McDonalds is light number 1. The 4th light is Main St., there will be a new Walgreen's on your right, on the NW corner. (The old Walgreen's is on the left, across the street, on the SW corner.) The 5th light is three blocks ahead, so if you're not in the right lane, you should move over now. The 5th light, just before the bridge, is Military Rd. Turn right (north) on Military, DON'T GO OVER THE BRIDGE!!. Almost immediately, after you turn right on Military, you will turn left (west) on Kelly. Just after that there will be a stop sign, that is Brooke St. Turn left (south) on Brooke. Continue south, through the stop light (but only when it's green!). When you get to the stop sign you will see the plant office building (light blue and grey w/the Metalink sign) across the street on the right, SW corner. Go past the building and turn right, into the lot.

From the Southwest (Madison): Take US 151 north. When you get to the 151/41 interchange 151 will become Military Rd. and 151 will split off and join 41 south. Stay on MILITARY, and continue into town.

From the South: Get off at the FIRST Military Rd exit by Mercury Marine.

From the South & Southwest combined: Continue into town on Military, past Fleet Farm. About a mile from 41, you'll cross a set of RR tracks, go through a traffic light where Military jinks to the left. Two blocks further up you will see Credit Union One on the left, on Wilkins St. The next street on the left, and it comes up fast, is Brooke. Turn left on Brooke and almost immediately turn left again, into the lot.

I just tried these directions from the south (was in the area anyway), and while they are technically correct, I thought they could use some streamlining to follow while driving.

Exit Highway 41 at Military Road - TURN RIGHT at end of exit
Follow Military Road for ~1 Mile until you cross RR tracks - Slow down and look ahead for BROOKE in ~2 blocks
TURN LEFT on BROOKE than IMMEDATELY TURN LEFT into parking lot

Hope that helps - Fix Until Broke
