Mike,

Most of the members from the Dallas area trailer their cars to the Austin event. Last year we had a caravan of about a dozen trailered cars and four driven. We had a ball on the way down, took the route through the hill country which proved to be rather long for some of the members. It rained all the way on the trip and Hill Bullock had no top. The other cars drivers, a Classics with a hard top and two Superformance cars with soft tops, stayed relatively dry. Hill and his co-rider were OK (meaning they kept their speed up so the rain went over the car, rather than in) until we reached the outskirts of Austin and got caught up in traffic. So, it's a choice.

Come to the February meeting and meet the members and talk to those that went last year. You'll get a real good idea of what to expect.

One thing is certain, the Austin event is not one to be missed. It is the event of the year.

Jim
