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.

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

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:
http://clubcobra.com/forums/showthread.php?t=69961
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.

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.
Northeast Texas Spring Cruise!
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.

John,
You could always just loan me your Cobra for the cruise 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.

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?

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

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

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

Who else is in on this?

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