West Texas/New Mexico Caravan to C5Fest - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

viper1cobra · 01-28-2010, 09:31 PM

To all Owners from West Texas/New Mexico that are planning on attending the C5Fest in April. I am planning on leaving in the morning on April 14th. I will be staying overnight in San Antonio, TX. Meet up with the San Antonio Crew in the Morning and then drive into Houston, and meet op with their group for lunch. Everyone will then drive into Biloxi, MS and stay overnight in the Grand Biloxi Resort and Casino. Then everyone will depart in the morning of April 16th and finish the drive into Valdosta, GA for check-in around 3-4 PM.

Please post if you plan on attending and want to caravan to the C5Fest as a group.

This is still dependent on some things for school, but my tax refund MIGHT just get me over the hump and attend!

I hope it works out for you. It would be great to have more Camaros in the Caravan. Looking forward to meeting you in April.

The more present the better it will be. I hope that you will get to go it should be the largest get together yet of 2010 Camaros.

The Houston meet-up will be around noon for lunch and then on to the Buloxi

West Texas to Houston is a pretty terrible drive and feels like it drags on and on and on. I think the drive to San Antonio is more fun. You have some hills, open stretches, then 80 legally after Junction with more hills which is always fun!

Don't get me wrong, if you want to go to Houston then more power to you, just be ready for a drive if you've never been that way from out here!

Either way you're going to Houston at noon

Ha, I wish! Lubbock to San Antonio is close to 5 hours depending on how you drive. Lubbock to Houston is 8+!!

edit: I say 'I wish' because maybe I'd still have my gf that moved there... DAMN YOU TEXAS FOR BEING SO BIG!!!!

My point is IF you are traveling with the caravan...
the group from SA is meeting up with Houston anyway...
so one way or another you will be in Houston.
The question is how much time do you want to spend traveling each day?

More time traveling w/ the pack if you go SA first...

TommyTSquared · 02-03-2010, 01:30 PM

Ahhh I see what you meant. I thought you were saying if you left from around here you'd make it to either SA or Houston around noon.
