Oh no say it ain’t so?! Hope everything is OK Dave. I’m still interested but I now see it’s still happening! Yay!

Thanks Tim, we will keep everyone posted. John and I are still working out the logistics of who is leading but either way this drive is still on.

Interested in going on the Cherohala drive but I don't drive at BamaDave speeds I'd be fine with following up behind the Tailgunner on the way back -- I can get myself back to the lodge no problem.

I am in the same boat as Jumpman2k, Sign me up, but know that if the group moves on ahead I can stick with Richard and we can find our way back with ease. Thanks, Phil W.

Bama Dave, we will miss you! Stay safe and see you soon.

Alright everyone, I spoke with BD about his original plan and I'm gonna leading this one. Same plan as before: try to hang out near the back during the roll out and we're going to line up on the dragon side of the gravel lot. Right after the picture, we'll have a quick chat for house-keeping bullet points and then head off. My car is a Silver AP1 with pretty brake dust colored wheels and blue lugnuts. There's a good chance a bright red Camaro with a black hood will be behind me or somewhere nearby.

Per Dave, we'll need to head out quickly and maintain a fairly brisk pace if we want to do the entire route and be back in time for the banquet. The pace will not be blistering, but it'll be a good bit quicker than a normal drive. I do not recommend this one for newbies or people that just want to take in the scenery as you will probably not enjoy it. This one one is more for those who love to drive.

Drive Group List.

1. Vortamock : John 2002 SS S2k
2. Mahoney aka Mahoney Some kind of German car Porsche I believe
3. Taylorade : Taylor 2005 S2K BB
4. S2Kaboom : Keith 2020 CTR CBP
5. 2000@53 : Tim 2005 S2K SS
6. Cameron : 2016 Camaro SS
7. Probably Griffin
8. Probably Cameron's friend (his name escapes me)
9.
10. The Tailgunner : Scammedon aka Brian 2006 S2K BB aka Partner in Crime lol
