We may want to meet south of 20 on 35 cause the guys comming from Dallas County could be in Waco by the time we get to Arlington. Remember to bring walkie talkies if you got some and we may want to sprinkle xB's in the front and back because we are more noticeable than the tC or xA and run lights. Hondas and Mazdas....let see where shall we put them.....J/K

What time & where to meet?

A good meeting place in Fort Worth might be in the parking garage top level (7th?) in downtown FW by the Bass Hall & AMC Palace movie theater. Maybe, if people get there early enough a quick photo op in front of the Bass Hall or something. Also it is only two stop lights from the entence ramp onto I-35 South bound.

Well actually we are planning on taking I-35E... The meeting place is the Love's Truck Stop on the South East corner of South Polk and I-20 in Duncanville... That way everyone can get every last minute thing they need before we roll out... Gas.... Snacks... Red Bull.... whatever...

If anyone needs directions or clarification on the location feel free to hit me up or of course the man with the plan (Robin)

Ok alot of random info on here i'll re-organize it later, this should help though...

Everyone meet @ 10 and we roll out at 10:30.
If you can't make 10:30, don't worry i'll be leading and since I drive I can't go over 50 cause I drive a xB, you'll probably catch up, right Trev? (jerk...)

No really, 10:00 to meet, 10:30 roll out,

Exit South Polk off I20, as the lovely Zelot explained.
That puts us directly onto the Exit for I35 when we roll out.

Since Trevor isn't going to listen to me anyway, I think he should be the
Photogagrapher, i'll loan him my camcorder, and he'll have his nitfty camera.
This will give him the freedom to "roam"
(Trevor, this means you have to do two things at once... take pictures and speed,
you might better streach............)

As far as order I would like to have the xB's in front, since i'll be leading and I gotta
have all my peeps wit me~!
xA's and tCs can play paper rock sicsors for 2nd and 3rd place.
This leads me to my next point...

So we can all stay together, and for those of you who haven't been on a cruise before,
everyone should stay in line, to keep from alot of; one car in that lane, 18 in that lane etc... obviously half the fun of somthing like this is to break people necks when they
see 20+ cars all in a line organized looking like a bunch of Franks.

Keeping with the resident PIMP, if you have a walkie talkie, please bring it, I may
need to borrow one so I can stay in contact with the car in the rear. I'll need sombody
experienced with this for my, uh, "back door man" (?????) yeeeeah, NO! I'm talkin
about the guy in the back of the line. (freaks.... )

For those of you who may have plans Sat evening, it is entirely possible to be back in
DFW by 5pm (I will be making that trip)
If you want to stop in Hillsboro and shop the outlets... I would invite you to do that on
your way back you should have plenty of time.
Also there is plenty of dining in Waco and Hillsboro for dinner, if anyone wants to stay
late, take pictures, shop etc.

Currently we'll be eating lunch in Waco when we arrive, then touring and taking lots of
pictures etc.
If the weather is nice, bring a nerf football and some frisbees or somthing, we'll have
some time to do that. If weather is crummy, the plans on what to do will change a
little, since pictures will be tough to take in bad weather.

I need to get with B. Jason from the 415 to decide what to do with the frey... I mean other cars. I may have them organize themselves behind us. (hey if they want to be all mixed up it just makes us look better right?)

I hope this answers alot of questions... Thanks everyone for your intrest! I think this
will be alot of fun fo shizzle~!
