Well it doesn't matter for legionnaireZ...he is going to hop on along the drive b/c he is over in arlington...so we have everyone but ivoryGT-V on the east side of the tollway.
So the Tollway and Frankford (Blue Fish) is closer to the racers but it's about even as far as where people are coming from, i personally would like to go down the tollway but if we have people that don't have tags and everyone would rather go down 35 from lewisville then that is fine also...i really don't care.
I think cykick might meet us along the way and it looks like legionnaireZ will meet us around 20@35, jtoddj is kinda far east so he might meet up with legionnaireZ...esuth212 might as well meet them and wait for us also.
We have a little over a week to figure it out, i say we meet at blue fish at 10am, go down the tollway and pick up cykick at mockingbird and then down 35 to wintergreen@35 and pick up jtoddj, esuth212 and legionaireZ.

Here is a map of the people and locations.
RED are racers
BLUE are cheerleaders
GREEN are the locations
Us guys up north should meet at BF or VISTA and drive down to HOTEL and meet others that gather there(should be there by 10:15 just in case we get down there faster than normal(30 min)). One of us up north will get a number to call the HOTEL guys when we are getting close then you can hop on 35 and do the speed limit(or a bit slower) and we will catch you i'm sure.
edit...had to change up the pic, file size was too large and didn't attach.

UPDATED LIST (Anthony specify which you're doing.. better be racing!)
1. 3 5 0 (racing; McKinney)
2. Kwiker (racing; Plano)
3. LegionnaireZ (Racing or Cheerleading ; Arlington) ?????
4. esuth212 (Cheerleading, Mesquite)
5. jtoddj (racing; Sachse)
6. JDMFairladyZ33 (cheerleading, Dallas)
7. IvoryGT-V (racing, Irving)
8. doomsday123 (cheerleading, Euless)
9. bommart (cheerleading, lewisville)
10. cykick (cheerleading, love field)
I'm the furthest up north (actually Sherman, which is basically Oklahoma). ****, I'm not even on the map. Nick just put me as Allen, psh.
BTW, when I go, I usually take 75, 45, 30, 35, then 287. You guys can work out where you want to meet, but I'd rather not drive out of the way since I'm already driving 120ish miles just taking my regular route.
Also, for those that are cheerleading, I highly suggest you rethink your decision. Drag racing is fun and pretty addicting. Plus, you get to see how good/bad you are, relative to other drivers, and how your car does, relative to other cars. Cheerleading is definitely not that exciting. I took my friend once and he was so damn bored and just talked on the phone the whole time.
Also, we may end up with 3 more racers (2 from my school - wrx wagon & 06 Z; combat - s2k). I'll remind/ask again.

hahaha, well maybe we should have an east group and a west group and merge at the hotel. West group can do vista and east group can meet at the starbucks at campbell and i-75. Then we can meet at the holiday in at 10:15, leave there at 10:30 at the latest...if you aren't there you are on your own.
If we do this we should meet at our respective locations around 9:30 or 9:45 at the latest...i think it is about a 30 min drive from either location to the hotel.

I like meeting close to 75. 
Plus, I know the way to get there (so do some others) and we won't get lost taking new roads.
Combat, I already told you about this meet a long time ago and you said you'd come. I know you listen to Hilary Duff, but be a man!

Both you and Jim told me the S2000 was faster in the short run. I have a hard time believing that (don't give me mag times). 1/4 is pretty damn short. Show me just how fast the S2000 can be. Or better yet, get your S2000 buddies from the event to meet us at our caravan location or at the track. That'll be fun.

If we do the east and west meet then we need to split the list of who is on which side and make sure at least one person has a contact phone number of an individual at the other location. That way we will know who is missing and what the status of the other side is. If we don't then it'll be like the right hand not knowing what the left hand is doing in the dark.
