I guess I should chime in here, since I'm the guy "in charge" of this, although I use that term loosely.
We love having people from out of state join us for the Cruises. We have a group from Texas that comes back every year and a guy from Oregon that always posts some great pictures and videos. We try to stay off the beaten path as much as possible and you will be driving some roads that were tailor-made for Cobras.
We do have room for some more people. The only time we capped registrations was the trip where we stayed in Chama NM, because the hotel we stayed at only had 25 rooms and other lodging was scarce. We try to hold it to 25 cars just to keep everything from being a little overwhelming. Right now our agreements with the hotels are for 25 rooms, but that probably wouldn't be a problem as we are staying in some big hotels this year. The room discounts go away about May 15, so you would need to get your rooms booked before then. Cruise registration "closes" on May 15th, too. At least if you want the personalized "goodies" included with the trip.
As far as altitude, we'll range from a low of 4600 feet or so in Grand Junction to a high of 12,183 feet going through Rocky Mountain National Park. I would suggest that you talk to your favorite carb guy about any jetting changes you might need to make. We had a car from Ohio last year that dropped his jets a couple of sizes and didn't have any issues going over Independence Pass, which is 12,095 feet. Your mileage may vary.
If you can't make it this year, try to join us next year. We're not sure where we're going, but it will probably be either Taos NM -Durango or back to Moab, Utah for a few nights.
