Ok guys, lots has happened since the last post here so I'm wondering who's all going......

Dazy-yes
ALWAZL8-yes
Coop ???
Blake ???
Ajax-yes
Racer-yes
Bluesunlion ???

Some were maybe's, some were yes's (before the accident) and I'm wondering who's in or out. I'm trying to get this organized so we can all follow up there.

There doesn't appear to be a deadline for registration, but I would think Friday at the latest so the planners can be prepared.

FAST!! j/k, that was what Ajax said. I've been searching for directions and it kept sending me on 35 through OKC. ALWAZ and I can drive to the Plano area and meet you guys off 75 somewhere. Know of any good spots off the highway? Maybe a restaurant or something?

Friday night - Partly cloudy 79
Saturday - Isolated Thunderstoms 78
Sunday - Scattered Thunderstorms 80

That sucks! You will probably get lucky though.

I'm assuming OK weather is similar to TX. Be prepared for what the weather people say, but expect the opposite. :D

Thanks. Between women, cars, family, and work I've got too many things to do this weekend. I'll probably end up working or something anyway.

Actually, expect 3.5 hours, maybe a little more. When I use to drive that route up down 75 it took me about 4 hours. Oh, and bring a few dollars for the Indian Nations Turnpike .

I've said it before and I can say it again.. I did the entire thing in just over 3 hours.. and i coulda done it faster..
now realize that i do live right at 75 and i did drive 90+ nearly the entire way(90x3=270) so it's probably a lot easier for me to make that claim. As a group I think it'll take us a bit of time since we wont want to all drive that fast. I'd like to try and keep it under 4 though :b
