I sat at the Celina Highschool for like 35 mins and nobody showed so I went to Park and Preston and waited another 15mins so I was way ahead of y'all if that gives any clue as to the speed I was holding.
I stopped off 75 since my walky talky was not working and cell phone wasn't working I needed to double check if we're taking 380 so I let Troy in the black M3 get in front.
Laura and I had a system she looked at the map and read off about how many miles to the next turn and told me which road so it was similar to a rally race reason I stayed on the correct path. I marked the map I have to help guide next time we take this trip I would like to in the spring time since we know the path well.
Good trip I had a blast and it was nice seeing everyone with the large turn out. Hope all went ok with the EVO and anyone else who might have had problems.
Oh one more thing to bitch about I wasn't to happy with the people passing other cars just so they could be in the front of the group which was all traveling the same speed. These people passed on double yellow and going up blind hills very very stupid I'm glad their still alive to brag about it but please try not to kill me next time. (turbo 944 and red eclipse)

Ya sorry about the shitty walkie talkie...and ya the girl in the red eclips was gettin crunk lol! See didnt care what lives were in the middle of the road. I think she just might have some balls growing behind her you know what. I got her opened up once for about two seconds and in the twisties i made sure to keep space so i could rail them when i wanted to. Almost wish i would have followed you more austin..sounds like you have a blast without us. But it was fun to travel with all those cars. Even got my ass kick in a triple honk jump at about 45mph. Hommie had a big turbo though and my clutch was slippin like a mo fo...you will see the clips soon.

Austin, since you were without the pack, did you stop for some side of road "fun"
So who wants to drive this again in a smaller group? I'm keeping my map and all the notes I made on it.
I say chaps perhaps next time might we end the day with a BJ ? I heard they have good beer, fancy that.

Here are the breakdown:
Thank You all for coming out and join the drive this morning.
I can't believe there were tons of cars showed up.
I hope everybody had fun in even many people got lost during the drive.
I also apologize if the map was not clear enough for some people.
And also no incident / accident happened during the drive other than regular hood paint chip/ ding and Evo's IC hose problem and Red Eclipse's radiator coolant leak which can be fixed pretty easily.
Also...
If any of you know a link / a forum that posted pics / videos, please e-mail inform me as I would like to combine all pics / videos for collections.
My e-mail is:
david_salaki@hotmail.com
Looking forward to the next drive together :banana:
Thanks,
David
cool, when we placed our donotation in the box, i noticed not many had came up to donate yet, and began to think everyone came for the ride not the purpose. Thanks for the update. great job guys!!
i cant host the video off my camera or cut it down but i might be able to get a friend to host some vides off the digi if its got anything cool, i havent checked it yet. just let me know when and where u want to meet i am pretty much free all the time. also, ill get some pics up off the digi on here for yall later tonight. id be down for a smaller run austin, and my passenger would most likely be down to drive his s2000 and another friend in his GLI
glad to see this raised some good numbers while giving us a chance to do what we love to do

What kind of car is that in the third pic with the funky spoiler?
I call BS - there's no bmw driver that can't run his car faster than any magazine has ever done before.

I had a blast on the drive today. It was cool seeing all of the cars and everyone having a good time. That VW wagon sure was taking those turns pretty good. Marc were you the 5'er on my ass in those turns? I was being a wuss on some of them and noticed you right on me. Nice 5 by the way.
