I'm thinking about adding one more to the pack from NY but........I've done this before and I'm not trying to rain on anybody's parade here but it tends to turn into a road race and not a casual cruise for everyone to enjoy. Don't get me wrong, I don't mind the quick spirited bursts from time to time but if you continually go over the speed limit and start to lose sight of the group then whats the point. Cars pulling out from the side streets now have a chance to get in line and slow you down even further which adds to the aggravation. You're not sure where to go and make a wrong turn and the rest of the Cobras behind you make the same wrong turn.The wife gets PO'd when you try to keep up and then its not fun anymore. (I know...leave the wife home) but I think its more fun when 25 or more cars stay together because I find that other cars are more willing to give you some common courteousy to allow you to stay as a group.

So I'd like to make one suggestion.... before the lead car makes any turns, pull over and make sure you have everbody behind you if possible. Trying to drive these cars and read a map is just CRAZY.

EDIT: we obviously where posting at the same time and I hadn't seen the guidelines yet, hopefully they will work....count me in.
