3rd official Attack on Twisted by ATS Racing

ATS Racing is hosting its 3rd annual Twisted Sisters run on Saturday, November 7.

Group leaves the YO Ranch hotel at 9am, heads to the Valero down the road for fuel (most of us run E85), then off we go.

We've never had the need to have separate groups before, but last February's attendance pretty much mandated it going forward. We're currently working on how we're going to work groups out, so I'll be updating this thread along the way. Also feel free to make suggestions.


The route we take (a bit different than what you guys do):

From YO Ranch Hotel in Kerrville, Tx.
R on 16 to Holdsworth Dr. (at cemetery)
R on Holdsworth to jct Harper Rd
L on Harper Rd to jct 27
R on 27 W
Continue 27 to jct 39 (left lane)
Stay to left for 39 W
Continue 39 W to jct 187
L on 187 S to jct 337 at Vanderpool
R on 337 to Leakey
Continue 337 to Frio Canyon Canyon MC stop (on left 1/2 mile past stop sign)

***Break***

Backtrack to Leakey to jct 83
L on 83 to jct 336
L on 336 to jct 41
L on 41 to jct 335
L on 335 to jct 55
L on 55 to Camp Wood

***Lunch @ Holy Smoke BBQ***
1 block S of 337 on 55

R on 337 E to Leakey
R on 83 to gas station for fuel if needed (no E85 here!)

83 N back to jct 337
R on 337 to Medina
R on 16 to Apple Orchard for Ice Cream (on left 1/16 mile down 16)
Continue 16 N back to Kerrville

We have an in-house videographer that has been asking me to make sure we get enough FRS/BRZ footage to make a separate video for us. He will be having a quick meeting to go over his ideas/requests for anyone (in any type of car) that will be filming. You aren't required to attend, or even give him your footage, but who doesn't like videos?

Videos of some of our previous events: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCr_...ZnWhKhyk9LxyUg

Also, Mason Bleasdell should be attending once again. He is the owner of Bleasdell Autophotography (https://www.facebook.com/bleasdell.autophoto?pnref=lhc). Previous years he has posted all of the event images to download for free, but he does sell prints and such as well, so be sure to check those out.

Y.O. RANCH HOTEL & CONFERENCE CENTER
2033 Sidney Baker
Kerrville, Texas 78028
(830) 257-4440
http://www.yoranchhotel.com
We have a group rate set up at the YO Ranch hotel. It's $99/night. For Friday and Saturday night it should be ~$224 after taxes. Traditionally this has included breakfast buffet vouchers for everyone in the room, no matter how many people are staying in the room. That has yet to be confirmed for this year, but shouldn't be an issue.

Hope to see some of you there!

If I'm not mistaken its all one group. They don't split it like we have for ours.

I'm tentative.

We are doing groups this time. Last time there were far too many cars that drove at different paces (and in general) to be remotely safe. Growing pains

I will go as a possible at the moment. I won't know for sure until October. I might be going to Alaska or Maryland in the near future temporarily due to work. It'll mark my 9th time running the Sisters in... hah... a month 1/2.

My wife has been looking for NICU jobs in San Antonio. She keeps asking me how often I'd come down to visit her until I graduate in the spring. All I keep thinking is that I can detour a bit and run the Sisters every time. So hopefully soon I'll be able to say I did 9 loops in a month

All the DFW-area ATS customers will be caravaning down Friday. We haven't worked out details yet since it's so far away. I'll be posting info as we get closer. Last November there were ~15 MR2s with us on the way down. This past February event I don't know how many left the area (Denton) because I went down with my wife and baby instead. We take 281 there and back. All of us E85 guys make it just fine.

You're obviously all more than welcome to plan your own caravan if you don't care to mix with a bunch of MR2s.

Will do. It most likely won't be discussed until September or so. But I will definitely post details here.

And keep in mind that ATS Racing is 99% an MR2 shop, so you'll be mixed in with them throughout the weekend anyway.

Can you link the caravan info in this thread when info comes up? Earliest I see myself leaving from work is 5pm unless I get a doctors note. ;P
