I would love to join this year. I would love a ride with whoever has an open seat, but if the wife wants to go, I may have to find 2 open seats or drive the Mustang.

22 would work for me. 29th we are having a very large BBQ.

SSSammy 05-10-2010 02:34 PM

Most likely!
 
That is an awful long time in the future, but I wouldn't want to miss it :)

Mind if I drive up from Longview and hook up with y'all for lunch?

SNAKIN 05-10-2010 05:02 PM

Sounds fun. We would like to drive out with everyone and then continue northeast for the weekend.

C'mon up Greg, we'll save a spot for you. Or if you get there first save a bunch of spots for us!

jdean 05-10-2010 07:35 PM

Oh yeah, here is the post from a long time ago. Jim Woodard ran across an article in Texas Driving magazine. Here is a link to the post and the map:

LuvDaBlues.....could you look for your map/directions you put together for last time?
Larry Reyburn already checked the roads out a few years ago, I'm sure they are all still ok!
Richard Parker has promised not to decapitate any road-crossing turtles since he changed his oil pan for more clearance.

jwoodard 05-10-2010 07:53 PM

I just might be able to make this one on the 22nd.
Here's another link with photos from the last time we went there in 2007.

I have a copy of the written turn by turn driving instructions if no one else has them. I think I might have the map saved somewhere as well, I'll look for it.

Out for the 22nd. Damn... and its an east-side thing too.
Catch you guys next time. Be safe.

jdean 05-11-2010 08:49 AM

Jim, glad you have the turn-by-turn directions....we'll need them!

Joe Wicked 05-11-2010 09:25 AM

John,
You could always just loan me your Cobra for the cruise :D I'm just saying.

Seriously though, If anyone has an open seat I would love to ride. The wife has opted out, so no need to take the Mustang.

Ran across this and thought it might be of interest, a l little pricey but looks like fun and could get some good track time.

Joe Wicked 05-15-2010 09:02 AM

Anyone else joining with an open seat?

jshel1 05-17-2010 03:46 PM

I may have a window of opportunity opening up on this. Probably need to take the more direct route home though. What's the headcount and what's the liklihood that I can peel off a cobra or two from the main group for safe travel company on the way back?

Joe Wicked 05-17-2010 07:06 PM

John,
If I don't get a ride, I will peel off with you in the Mustang.

thomi_snake 05-18-2010 07:58 AM

Tour de Cork Screw instead
 
Sorry guys & gals,
won't be able to make this one. Will spend the weekend at Laguna Seca for the ALMS race.
Have fun.

Ray Russell 05-18-2010 04:46 PM

This sounds like a fun deal! I wanna do it.:D

jshel1 05-18-2010 07:03 PM

In for sure, with navigator / videographer and fellow SCAT member, Bob Worley.

Do we have a copy of Steve's driving instructions from yesteryear?
See all at Texas Roadhouse in McKinney (exit 39: 75 & Eldorado).

I reviewed the photos from 2007 and can't believe we don't have a bigger turnout already, but it is just Tuesday.

I count:

For Sure:

SSSammy
SNAKIN
Ray Russell

On the fence:
jwoodard

Meeting us there:

Who else is in on this?

Joe Wicked 05-18-2010 07:18 PM

I am still looking for an open navigator seat as well. I would much rather ride than drive the Mustang.

snakebittexan 05-20-2010 07:04 AM

Count me in!
