Thread: Lone Star BMW CCA Autocross #6 at Grayson County Airport (8/11/07)

  1. #1

    Default Lone Star BMW CCA Autocross #6 at Grayson County Airport (8/11/07)

    Who all is attending? I've never been out there so I'm looking for someone to follow.

    I have never been, either. If you want, we can hook up for breakfast and convoy out there.

    Anyone else going? It is north of McKinney.

    Looks like it is about 90 miles from Hurst. Would anyone want to meet at the McDonalds in Grapevine (114 @ Main) from 6:15-6:45 AM? I figure that will get us to the event at about 8 AM.

    We will just need to head up 121 to 635, and then over to 75. Take 75 north to Grayson Dr, and then west to the airport.

    If you were as slow as me, you wouldn't be afraid either.

    In for sure, bring your fast cars kids I think I hit nearly 100 at this event last year, it's on a long narrow runway strip and very hard to find. It's on the backside of the airport which is kind of tricky.

    Doh! I was thinking this conflicted with ER's event but it's on Saturday. I'm very curious and I've never run there before so I plan to go too.

    What time are you serving breakfast, cone-cerned?

    Seriously though, is there a good spot in Whitesboro maybe? blackzx3_13, can you recommend something? I see there's a McDonalds.

    How about 7 am at the McDonald's at the intersection of US 82 and US 377 in Whitesboro. I have been to the site before. I could lead y'all in the back way.

    You read my mind. I'd guess jrj512 and aalvarez04 would be better off coming up 35W too; less time spent in metroplex traffic, the better. Wha'd'ya say guys?

    It is only about 5-10 extra minutes for me and probably a wash for aalvarez04, so that if fine with me.

    Aalvarez04, please respond so I know you read this and are not going to Grapevine. Otherwise, I will go ahead and go to Grapevine.

    I talked to Aalvarez04. We'll see you guys in Whitesborro. We are going to hook up at the Don Pablos (and it does blow) off Ruf Snow and 820 at 6 AM to travel up there. It is only 10 extra miles for me to go that route, so it is not a big deal.

    There is a really good donut shop owned by a friend's parents on business 377 in town, just a few miles south of McDonald's. The only real breakfast place besides Mickey-D's is a sonic up the road and a truck stop on 82 on the way to Sherman.
