Hey, What's up, dude? Long time. I hope you can bring the Viper out for the cruise, it's in our 'hood
Yeah, you are absolutely correct. I hope everyone gets there pretty much on time so we can have a briefing on how to stay safe out there. This should be fun
If the viper is back from the paint shop I'll bring it out. I love those back roads. If not I might still roll out in the Lexus ( way at the back of course!)

Yes, it is Father's Day. One more reason to get it done nice and early in the a.m....like Bubb Rubb said "only in the monin', should be up cookin' brefass or somthin'". We can get it done by noon or so and still be with Pops

Sup, guys?!
Here's a ittle info for the people planning on attending (and those who are on the fence).
I cruised the the route yesterday and it was FN sweet! It took 25 minutes to get from the meeting spot to the first stop. I saw about 3 cars during this leg, twisties and long straights to haul booty a bit. The second leg was EVEN BETTER...absolutely killer twisties and a great scenic drive. That leg took about 35-40 minutes. From the final meet/catch up spot, it took 20 minutes to get to Hooters in Dublin. It took just over a 1/4 tank of gas to go the whole route and a total 90 minutes. It will take a tad longer for the cruise,though, because I was by myself and haulin' a$$. Anyways, I hope we get a good turnout, this cruise will be perfect for all those peeps who said that the Gallop wasn't long enough. Cy'all there!

Between Cafords and SVTPerformance, we're up to 24 cars confirmed and about 10-15 "maybes". I think as the day gets closer more people will jump in for the ride. I'm guessing anywhere between 30-50 cars ultimately.

Ok, guys! Let's start thinkin' about this weekend. This is gonna be a FUN cruise...guaranteed!
Just remember to gas up, make sure you've got decent tires, and arrive early so we can have a briefing about the route.
Lookin' forward to this! Bring cameras,there will be great pics opportunities all along the route.

Alright people, we are on final approach! Put your seatbelts on and your tray-tables in the upright and locked position...and be sure to keep you hands and feet in until the ride comes to a complete stop .
So far it looks like we've got a pretty good turnout so far...I'd say 25+ cars(probably more once the stragglers file in)which will be perfect for the cruise. If this morning's weather is any indication of what we'll see Sunday, we're in great shape. For those of you that are definitly committed, I thank you in advance for your participation. You won't regret it, I'm getttin' antsy, I wanna hurry up and hit it!
Remember, we'll be ending it at Hooters in Dublin so bring some cash if you decide you wanna eat. Checklist:
1. you 2. car 3. 'nuff gas(about 1/4-1/2 tank) 4. decent tires 5. your nerve 6. driving gloves
Cya in about 48 hrs
