Never have, no purpose, for me anyhow... I guess that comes from my desire to drive the car, and not just go to show it off. I've never been much of a "hey look at my s2000!" showy type of person... Maybe the new CO's will do that though?

Just cover the front of the car in track tape. Something I'll do when/if I repaint

I kind of liked being part of the larger group, seeing the multitude of different S2000's all there at the same time, and meeting people from the forums who you would never get to meet otherwise. I guess going with a group on your own you'd save the cost of the registration and you could drive at your own pace and your own route. Pros and cons to both trips.

Most likely but won't be an RTD event. I'd really like to plan our own spring trip with the same guys
Regardless, I'm up for either trip.

Interesting this popped up so early. Good to think it through though. A couple thoughts I have had over the years is to either go early so you can spend several days driving around area roads before the event( I did this in 2012,13 and 14) OR get down there Friday sometime, do the Saturday roll out and then stick around for several days running the area roads. The key in my eyes is to be able to hang around with the groups on Friday and Saturday and not be too busy driving those days. I will say that the Sunday everyone left this year, things were very quiet on the roads until afternoon.
Doing our own trip is something I thought was going to happen this year but you all jumped on the RTD bandwagon. Also, over the years, the early weekend has had pretty good weather. Often in May there is a lot of rain days. A fall trip would be beautiful but by then everyone has had a summer of driving around and the novelty has worn off. I really like getting the car out of storage and going on one heck of a road trip. Any time in April would be good for me.
Also, despite the fact that I go down to do a bunch of back road driving, it is the stops that you remember from year to year. It is good, each day to pick one or two tourist attractions to explore. Museums, waterfall hikes, cave splunking, mountain top national parks are things I have either done or will do some day. Also, there are enough attractions that you can do a different route each year. Often the rookies want to go see all the things that have been talked about prior years but that gets a bit dull going to the same spots every year which is why I cut out on you guys Friday and Saturday.
Also quit worrying about the $60 registration fee, that is the cheapest part of the whole trip.
