So, unfortunately I am going to have to back out of the drive portion. The rent car is a Chevy Cruze...

But I will definitely show up to RR donuts and Salt Lick to check out the beautiful, beautiful ft86's and talk shop with y'all.

Edit: If anyone has shotgun available and wouldn't mind a passenger with a GoPro, i'm totally willing to go halvsies on gas!

I will raise my hand lol

With 40 cars, I feel it will be better if there are 2 or 3 leaders + 1 in the very back. The whole group can still stay together for as long as possible through all the traffic lights and all but it will be nice if there are people who also know the route in the middle of the group so the guys following won't be lost. Anybody have any other suggestions?

Also i just want to verify... are we still meeting round rock donuts at 10 am? or are we meeting at the autozone parking lot on 79 after we have breakfast at our desired spot?
i'm almost certain round rock donuts parking lot is going to be packed on a saturday morning

5hairpins · 08-02-2013, 12:25 PM

I will probably skip the Donuts as they are not on my diet. Breakfast Tacos however are on my diet. I plan to meet up at the Autozone.

Whomever takes Turkish along (I am happy to do so) can use him as a navigator for a middle of the pack, alternate leader.

The Slow One · 08-02-2013, 12:35 PM

Decided to go last minute! I'm ready!

There is not enough parking space at round rock for all of us. But I know some people are going to be going. Main idea is to get some breakfast and then meet up at the autozone before we head out on the cruise

I can be a super slow still-in-breake-in leader as I am familiar with the entire route.
I'd rather be tail as I won't be speeding.
I agree with previous posters that we will easily pike the interest of the Wilco PD with a meeting in roundrock.
