David:
It's hard to give a lot of warning since activities with these cars tends to be weather related.

Relating to a foliage run (in the western/southern Connecticut area) I prefer to be on 5th gear roads. I like the wind going by and feeling some side force when going around the corners. Some of my favorite roads to cruise are the Merritt and Wilbur Cross Parkways, Route 63 above Litchfield and Route 254 between Litchfield and Thomaston. All of these guys are fast and smooth and have hardly a light or stop sign. I imagine Route 7 up around Lime Rock is also pretty wide open.

If anyone out there has any ideas for this coming Saturday (10-10-08) feel free to post them here. How about this loop - (starting anywhere) Route 8 to Thomaston, from there take Route 254 up to Litchfield (lunch maybe), Route 63 up to Lime Rock (lunch at the track?), Route 7 down to Danbury, Route 58 back to the Merritt (lunch at the Sycamore?), the Merritt back to route 8?
