Attn all members: event idea.
Okay guys, the end of the year and cold weather are coming soon. The weather is nice enough right now for us to have one more club event.
So for an idea for an event, I have a planned out route through the countryside between McKinney and Sherman. It's an awesome drive through the scenic countryside with lots of twists and turns. A couple of stops along the way for photoshoot opportunities as well. I've been on this route several times for a charity cruise and it's a blast to say the least.
The idea would be to meet up on a Saturday or Sunday morning meeting in the parking lot of TrueStreet Motorsports. We leave and enjoy the cruise. We have lunch in Sherman. Those who want to leave are free to do so, or turn around and do the route again ending in McKinney where we started.
The route is about 61 miles of fun twisty curvy roads.
So, who would be in for an event like this?

Very cool! I've still never been to an NFL game before.

I'm thinking the 17th or 18th depending on what works best for everyone. I want as many members to show up as possible since it will most likely be the last event for the year. We still need a good group photo too.

It's a blast! This route really made me rethink how I was approaching mynext Mustang. Rather than making as much possible, I want to make good power and the car handle really well for the twisties. Most of my car hobby has always been about straight line racing thinking I"d never enjoy the turns...man was I wrong. Drag racing is cool and all, but I MUCH more prefer the twisties now!

I'm in. I love driving that area. A nice Sunday drive would be best for me but a Saturday will work as well.

December. I meant the 15th and 16th. I didn't change the calendar when I looked. lol.
Really, we can do it any weekend you guys want to. I just want to make it possible for as many members as possible to make it. It's going to be the last event of the year and most likely the last car event until Spring before it gets real cold.
