I love the super twisty way. I always wanted to just bring the camaro one year and make that road my *****...but so much for that idea.

Jerry is right though. Five minutes and you're in the middle of no where. I remember the year where I drove up at like 1am and stopped to take a piss and didn't even pull off the road. I came back to the truck to find Austin laying in the middle of the road looking at the stars.

That's right! That was the year you stayed in Dallas to help me finish the cage in Lurch and then we met up with Asstin in McKinney and drove in from there. I knew there was somebody else with us, I just couldn't remember who.

It was badass in the M3. I got some interesting looks from the locals in this freaky little town I stopped for gas in though.

43 doesn't get twisty till the end - it's not to bad in the beginning. We can typically hold 75 most of the way till we get into the mountain curves

I topped out the Belle the year of the great trailer debacle on that road with BDR riding shotty. I don't think he thought a worn out scout could go that fast.

I am still looking for someone leaving Houston or College Station on Friday afternoon to bring my little brother up.

No way he can leave Thursday? We have room.

I have asked before, but mom wasn't real receptive to the idea. My brother Eric has said he wanted to come up, so I will see if he will wait till Friday to come up. I will let you know one way or the other pretty quick though, thanks Scotti.

If he can get out of school for friday, he will just catch it with Scotti on Thursday. I still haven't been able to find anything out from the home front though. :(

I am ready for this trip. Can't decide to run the hardtop or not. How cold is it usually? Debating on fixing heater core

I will wait and check the weather. The top doesnt have windows in it, but it would keep backseat passengers and gear semi-dry.

360+ miles....damn, I really hadn't check that yet. That a longass trip towing Bronco. I am going to try an still leave early afternoon Thursday.

How many different parks are there around Clayton? Do you unload at the A&A or at the parks?

And the local PD could give a crap. I always drive the buggy, and that's with 4# in the tires.

Don't attempt 23,24, or 25... I'm sticking to the "less stupid hard" stuff this year...

No hardtop, have the passengers bring a jacket
