Did not see this any where. Are you going to be using 2 way radios? If so what channel?

40 cars in a line is about 1-2 miles long. Might help keep us together.

I personally hate radios but I guess we'll be on them. With 40+ Vettes we'll probably be spread out enough that they won't go front to back anyway.

Let's use channel 3-1. I will also have directons with maps for everyone with the stops indicated and I'll put my cellphone on those.

Wow Ted I didn't think you would really sell your car, I really liked it, wish I could have afforded to keep 2. Good luck on your search for a new one.

Someone better take lots of Photos and some drive by videos.

I'll be taking the body off my frame. So I wont be there.

I'll most likely be "helping" (watching and drinking beer and pointing and taking photos) Phil break his car into multiple pieces.

Besides, I'm Vetteless as of yesterday... She went to a good home where they want to do a restore. I decided I didn't have the time/money/patience for that.

I'm going to be keeping my eye out for that perfect unpassable deal. With the vacation trip, wedding, and honeymoon coming up, it may be after the New Year before I get a new car. We also want to get a bigger house with a three car garage. Otherwise, I'm looking at putting the new Vette in a storage unit or something. That doesn't feel right.

Anyway, I'll still come to events and be present on this board in the mean time.

I know where there's a cheap black 98 Z51 coupe....

For sure. You won't be able to beat that price anywhere I think. 154k on the clock though, but on these motors that's not too bad.

Got room for one more Eddie?

Always room for you Chuck! Anyone else? These cruises are open to anyone and if you're new to ACE there's no better way to get acquainted.

This is going to be a great turnout and an awesome cruise. I was so looking forward to it, but I blew my back out last weekend bringing my dog home from surgery ( ironic, huh? ). Anyway, I was hoping it would be healed up enough to do this run, but the ole back isn't cooperating.

Have fun guys and take lots of pics!

Joe the owner/manager did a special lunch menu for us. It has burgers, sandwiches and salads. Most are $10-$15.

They normally aren't open for lunch and aren't open on Sundays but he's treating us like a banquet. He wanted to do 2-3 entree menu in order to speed up service but I said I thought people would rather choice from a menu and take their time.

Is the plan to come back via I-17?

If so, that could suck.

There's really only two ways and thats I-17 or back the way you came.

If it's like usual we'll probably break into smaller groups coming home and it will be to each their own.

I usually take I-17 to Carefree and come down Cave Creek but I live on the NE side. You could take Carefree to Lake Pleasant Rd.

Not a biggie, but you can go over to Payson and down 87 to PHx.
