OK, follow up and more info on this if anyone is interested:
Run is on Saturday 2/14, Valentines Day. We are leaving the YO Ranch Hotel at 9am. Last time we left the hotel at 9 and stopped at the gas station with E85 down the road on the way. It's probably not a bad idea to have a full tank and be ready to go before 9, but I can almost promise you wouldn't be the only one not ready.
It IS primarily an MR2 run, so anyone not in one needs to be in the back of the line. Don't think that will dampen your fun though, last time my boss dropped to the back and led us. He knew exactly when to literally stop before the good sections (we were "stuck" behind some slow guys since we were in the back
) and during the end of day story trading time, it came to light that we actually averaged
higher speeds through certain sections. So being in the back isn't nearly as bad as you might want to think. So far there's a newer M5 coming, a C6 Z06 or two, I think a C7, an RX8, and of course my FRS. And roughly 30 MR2s of all vintages.
Significant others are always allowed, and I know there's quite a few coming on this one. My wife is, I know a few others are bringing theirs as well. Some of us will be taking things a bit slower because of that, but some had claimed they are not.
Hotel meeting address:
YO Ranch Hotel and Conference Center
2033 Sidney Baker Street
Kerrville, TX 78028
We intend to all gather in the side lot that exits to 534. Again, leaving there a 9am!

Hope to see some of you there! If you have questions/comments, please let me know. I'd send me a PM or at least quote a tiny portion of this so I see the site notification...I have a busy week coming up so I'll probably get distracted and not check here as often as I should.
