I should be good with that. 5PM may be a little late in the day as I'm sure we would wanna take some time out for some photo ops through the course of the route if we find any sweet spots and try to beat the sun at the same time by the time we hit Marble Falls.
Things to keep in mind to bring: Food/snacks plenty of water 2-way radios plenty o' gas a good attitude extra tools This post has been edited by NgoFcukinWay: Aug 7, 2015 - 11:16 PM -------------------- -Alex {](O_o)[}

I'd say that start mid morning. Meet up, cruise, etc. There are a few nice places for pulling over and taking pics along the route.

The IS would be a boring car to bring, so if I'm able to go, (Saturdays are hard being in the car business) I will be in the S2000.

My Celica will probably won't be done by then. If I go the only car I could bring would be my Subaru.

Googled it. It's just west of Kerrville, so probably a bit out of our way from Marble Falls. I might try to tackle that the following day with Spolski,

Sadly, the Texas crowd isn't as active as we were back in like '06-'08.
 I wouldn't let that discourage anyone though. it happens. as long as we still get participants, we're good.For the All-Toyota thing though, you can check with the TEG Texas chapter on Facebook or see if one of the other General Toyota forums is still active. -------------------- -Alex {](O_o)[}

Yeah I'm going to make a post on the Facebook pages soon to see if any of those members may be interested.
