SevenStock Caravan Thread

Well it is just over a month till Seven Stock.

For the people that are planning on going to sevenstock and want to caravan down I-10 together as a group this is the thread for the south section.

As the event draws near we will have a better understanding of who wants to join in and where the can meet up with the group on I-10.

From Houston there are about 4-5 People and 3-4 cars that will be heading to Irvine


We have a group from Dallas that will be meeting somewhere around SA.

Here is the agenda so far.

Ok the plan is leave Houston in the evening 6-8PM, I will be driving about 60-65 because of the large load on my truck 15,000+ pounds of cars,trailer,people, and Junk Food. So we will be in SA about 3 hours later.

From SA to El paso it is about 550 miles, at 60, we will make it there about 8:30AM, give or take some time for fill ups and RR breaks.

From El paso to Phoenix is about 375 Miles, so at 60 5:30-6:00 hours, or about 3:00PM. I have added some time for small breaks and stuff.

From Phoenix to Irvine CA it is about another 375 miles at 60mph, that will be about 5:30-6:00 hours or about 9:00Pm Friday night.

Then get the Hotel rooms, Party and rest up for Sat events.

I want to try and drive thru the desert at night, this would be good for are hot blooded cars also.


That is the plan so far........ I would like to hear from anyone that is traveling from far east I-10 and would like to meet up in Houston, We are relaxed with the time line for leaving Houston, but I would like to see if anyone is coming from the East so we can get the times right.

Keith Please spread the word....

FYI - we need to reserve the rooms now.... or else they will be sold out. One of us with a credit card could put them on hold (we can split up cost later)....

We can get 2 bed rooms for $105 a night. That's $462 total for 2 rooms for 2 days. We can cancel up to 24 hours in advance if need be (with no cancellation fee).

If it's not too much to ask, can you take a pic with all the cars on the trailer? That would be wallpaper material there...

Ghey Secks for everyone!

I'm drivin', I'll be in the Titanium Grey MSM behind your tow rig.

The 'usual' suspects for sure but as for those of us further East I only know that Daniel (I love Pop Up Lights) is goin' for sure since he booked our room.

Thought you weren't goin' this year? Something about a big show?
