Drives updated... both drives are now full.

If you want to be added to a 3rd group, go ahead and post, and we will work on finding another drive leader!

I wouldn't be a good drive leader as I don't have a navigator, but please put me in a moderate group for the Franklin drive.

If it's just me, either I'll be my own group leader, or I'll squeeze into one of the other groups .

What we may do, depending on how may others sign up... is to take 2-3 people from group 1 and 2 and put them in group 3....

The smaller the groups, the more fun!

Need a drive leader for Group 3... any volunteers?

Join us for a semi-spirited drive down Rt 28 (and a few added side roads) to Franklin, with lunch at Caffe Rel. Returning to Fontana via Wayah Road.

Meet up at the Wildwood Grill at 9:45, leaving promptly at 10:00.

This should allow us to get to Cafe Rel (limited seating and only takes cash!) around 11:30-11:50 and hopefully beat the lunch rush.

Let me know if you plan on going, so we can determine if we need to add another group.

If you are not an experienced driver, or are uncomfortable with a spirited drive, this group is not for you.

If you prefer a slightly less spirited drive, sign up for the moderate pace group!

Group 1 (pace will be semi spirited) 10 cars max! _ Group Closed!

1. Lovetodrive2000 - Mike & Kathy
2. Looter - Denny & Sharon
3. Scooterboy - David & Patty
4. tr6greg - Greg
5. kgf3076 - Ken
6. Poorshoeless - Khau & Benjamin
7. Colnagotifosi - Stuart & Jan
8. GutI007 - Justin and the lovely Melody
9. adrs2k - Adam
10. joephotographer - Jamie

Total cars 10 / people 16

Group 2 (pace will be moderate) 10 cars max!_ Group Closed!

1. Shedrivesit - Mark & Mary
2. Batguano - Lee & Miss Linda (our favorite!)
3. jukngene - Gene
4. funat9000rpm - Florian
5. RLT - Joerg
6. DFW GPW
7. moxie50 - Jay
8. STQQK - Jane
9. Robm
10. Birdybog

You can pull this up in Google Maps so that you know when we will be turning, plus how sharp some of the curves are!![/QUOTE]

I could lead group 3 if you need someone, but I'm slow, if I'm leading it then everyone should know it's the slowwwwwww group.
