I thought we were just trying to make sure that there wasn't a chance of rain drop build up on Nicks Windshield!
I was going to go up to Flagstaff Friday Morning. Wickenburg to Prescott via Yarnell Hill (Again!) over Mingus Mtn., thru Jerome into Cottonwood (Maybe Lunch at Murphys!). Then Up to Sedona, and Oak Creek Canyon to Flagstaff. Might be a fun Cruise with a group.
FYI the PT's had 37 Cars to our 19, but we left with 3 Trophys to their 1. So we had quality on our side. Lets hope they don't give out trophys for the Club that can pack the most members into a Car, or who can drive with a pair of size 22 shoes on!

He likes to hangout at the Pavillions Saturday Night with His Car, one way to meet Ladies who are looking for a "Car Guy". Might try checking out 2-3 other locations in the East Valley too. Do some circulating, see who is out there.

Is anyone driving up on Friday afternoon? I have class in the morning and can't leave Phx until around 12-12:30.
Sent my registration in on friday. What's the word on the hotel and rates? I think I'm gonna take the friday before the show off this year, unlike last year, but haven't figure out what time to actually head up yet.

Give the Flagstaff Ramada West a call at 928 773-1111. Ask for the Nett group rate ($79.99 a night Fri and Sat). Might have a few rooms left, if not give Scott a call, and see if He can arrange more rooms.

We will be taking the long slow way up. Might be able to meet us in Cottonwood around 2-2:30 PM. Will have to see about exchanging cell #'s for a meetup at some point.

Thanks, called and got my room reservation for Friday night. I believe they said they had 4 rooms left at the Nett group rate (down to 3 now that I took one), for any other that are interested.

I would like to get a group together Friday morning 9-10AM up on the Carefree Highway. We could cruse up via Yarnell into Prescott, Over Mingus to Gerome, maybe have lunch at Murphys in Cottonwood, then up Oak Creek Canyon, (could be some early Fall Colors), and on into Flagstaff mid afternoon.

Well I just drove Prescott on thru Camp Verde and the 260 thru Pine, Strawberry, all the way to Payson and then Pinetop last weekend. Came back to Phoenix via the 60, from Showlow to Globe is a nice drive, first time I had driven that, Globe on into Phoenix wasn't as exciting, not as nice, not the first time for that drive.
Done Yarnel route a couple times now also, hhhuuummmmm, decisions, decisions.....
PT Cruisers? ahahahahahahahahaha what a crappy little POS
