Granbury Parking Party - 3/24/07

OK, so the garage is almost empty.......... I've looked at the autocross schedule so as not to conflict, and it looks like Saturday March 24th is the best bet, as this needs to be done PRIOR to April 1st. Sunny looks so loney sitting in there all alone, so we are finally going to see just how many Miatas really fit in the garage :) Once the garage is full, we'll pack the driveway. I figure there's room for thirty-four Miatas!

We will have snacks and drinks and enjoy the place one last time. If someone wants to lead a run, that would be nice, 'cause I'm sure many of you have not seen some of the good roads in the area. Figure on making it to Pecan Plantation by 2PM. I'll be there waiting........ :drive:

Huh? I'm not sure who you are, but you've been out of the loop for a LONG time. She left six and a half years ago..............

how many miata's do you have coming so far? I'm interested in going. I was going to go see the texas fastest street car showdown but i like miata ppl better:D

I planned to come.

Merv, do we have a confirmed time and place at which to meet in Granbury?

I figured we might want to first meet someplace near the intersection of I-20 and I-35 before heading off to the rendevous in Granbury. We can decide on the time once we know when we need to be in Granbury. Anybody have any ideas of a meeting place in this area?

I'm hoping that someone will take the ball and lead the pack, but you're welcome to come alone. Google this for directions: 9712 Bellechase Rd, Granbury, 76049.

I do need anyone that is coming to PM me with REAL names, so I can put you on the list for the security guard, otherwise you won't be allowed in! If no one has changed there mind from earlier, we have sixteen cars, so far!

Hope ya'll can make it.

One of the best places I can think of is the parking lot of Movie Trading Company right at Hulen and I-20. It is behind the Shell station on the North side of I-20. There is a lot of space and it is just off of the highway.

Just some advice from a person who has lived in this area for a while, getting to i-20 from hulen to go west is a pain. You have to go all the way to bryant irvin through a light that takes 2-3 cycles on a Saturday afternoon. I would recommend 377 and 820 just south is a Mcdonalds. I have met people there for drives to Grandbury a few times. That way you dont have to deal with Saturday mall traffic on Hulen. Just IMHO.

I don't know that area very well, but Hulen Mall is there. Pick a meeting spot on the perimeter near (insert store name here).

Meet at 1pm leave by 1:15?

OK, we have a winner. Meet at the McDonalds at 8516 Hwy 377 S.,
Benbrook, TX 76126 at 1 PM. I guess we will head out at about 1:15. Be there or be a :cat:.

Sounds good. I know right where it is, and it is closer than Hulen anyway.
