.. Hint Hint for all ....
Starting Point: will be in McKinney Texas somewhere off I-75
Ending Point: will be at the 4 Winds Steakhouse in Wills Point Texas off I-20
We will be driving on mostly deserted 2 lane country roads for approx 2 hours. We will be passing through a few small towns, towns that are so small they most likey do not even have a police station ( I say this because in the years I have driven this route I have never needed or seen a LEO other than in McKinney ) This is not to say that if you pass Mrs.Daisy at a buck-fifty she wouldn't find it nessasary to call up "Buster" and the boys and find a way to cause us trouble!
There are not many " shoulders" to pass on through this route but there are several straightaways that with some radio feedback, passing will be safe.

That description sounds great, I'm getting excited about this!
I've been puttering around for a couple years in a lexus and finally got a fast car again, this will be the first real outing with her.

yeah, i kind of had a knee-jerk reaction to carlos' post. the pre drive is meant to iron out the plan...
for most people, its just show up and enjoy a nice drive and lunch, but a lot of time and effort goes into organizing these events and its all done free of charge for the simple reason of being car enthusiasts. so lets give steve a hand
