Travis....you gonna be able to AutoX on the 20th ?

-----

Eric and Chris....last I heard the reain should be in late Sat and maybe into the AM for sunday but should be sunny and clear out.

I think we should be in the clear and have a great day of TT's.

We should meet up in the am around 35w and ??? and then drive down together. You guys can follow me since I've been there.

Sounds good. Hopefully, the weather stays that way and we can race on a dry track.

Google's telling me to take TX-121 --> 35W --> I30 --> US-377. What roads are you taking?

Chris...I'm out on this Sat. the 13th.

Since I'm doing the TT Sunday.

That is why I asked about Sat...I thought it was just Adam signed up.

I might be able to make it...but I doubt it.

-------

And Actually you can take 820 all the way down to the 377.....it is faster than going thru all the city between 30 and 20.

I just use my GPS to get to these places so I wouldn't know. I'm down for meeting up and cruising together. What roads are you taking?

Well, Since we are all going to be on 35w....I just head So. on 35W until it hits 820 and take it all the way down until 377...or there is an eit just before that you can get off on also that will get you to 377.

It is faster than going straight down 35W...because there is a lot of construction all thru the freeways around there.

^ I can meet you somewhere near 35W and 820. I don't know that area at all, so just let me know what time and where you want to meet.

I go 380 to 35w mainly because it's easy from Frisco. Seems like its going to be a small turnout overall. No more TMS for BMW after this...
