I'll be coming down.

Nick said he's driving down too.

Do we want to meet up somewhere on the Southeast side to cruise down? Maybe somewhere on Houghton?

I might have to take you up on that! Not too confident doing it by my self. My floor jack barely clears so I either need to get a lower profile jack or rig up some ramps for clearance. I'm real brave working on my dirt toys (none of the current ones have ever seen the shop), but not so much on my Camaro. Might have to head to the next mod day in Tucson unless I get impatient in the mean time.

The only parking area at that corner is on the southwest corner and it is dirt. I would get off at Houghton, go across Houghton and pull to the side of the on ramp. What time Saturday are we meeting up?

For those going on the Show Low run or those still thinking about it, read this article. You will want to go for sure. It is why we bought these cars.

I would recommend two options...

The Blow and Go:
Meet at the Chevron at I-10 and Wilmont. Take the freeway to Exit 302 which is 90 South

The Slow Ride:
Meet at the Road Runner Market and Gas Station at Houghton and Sahaurita. Take 83 Sonoita Hwy to 82 East to 90 South.

I vote for option # 1.

How about option #1 for the trip down, and option #2 for the return?

Anytime I can get hills and twistees into the route, I'm for it...

Kinda like this;

For Nor'westers, we can meet at the Starbucks at Ina & I-10 (Frappacino Time!), and cruise down to the Southeast colection point.

"The road itself takes three to four hours, depending on on your driving style."

We'll be going as long as my daughter doesn't need me. Her water just broke this morning so she will be making me a Grandpa again soon!


Update, at 9:30 this morning I became a Grandpa for the 3rd time!
