The big lot where we stage up for 7Stock is the the place to park since that's where the C&C spectators park. Should be loads of surplus are to stage our cruise. Unless you get there at 6AM or earlier, and the inspectors deem your car worthy, you won't be able to get on the show lot anyway.

And, indeed the more the merrier. Who knows, maybe a C&C Maserati or two will join us Mazdarati's

A few pictures

From todays run

1 at Mid cruise donut stop

2 during caravan

Thanks to all, expecially Meiogirl for making this happen. Good dry run albeit with a few turn a rounds. Good learning experience that will make it even better next time.

Good RX7 showing at Cars n Coffee with, by my count, 4 FC's and one FD in the main viewing area.

It was a good run, some of the roads were really rough! The run should be a lot smoother next year

The first 7Stock was only, what, 10 cars? Get's better with practice.

Looking forward to the sequel.

I think you did a good job leading, that was fun! Somebody had to do it.

I tried looking up where we ran into that dead end...I think you were on the correct road all along and perhaps it got blocked off? Looks like where we got lost at that Y intersection was on the other side of that blocked off area as well. When I get back to work I'll be able to markup a map ( I don't have an image altering program on this computer right now).

I had a good time, thanks for putting it on Hozz and Meiogirl. The dirt and water was a little bit unnerving, but like Mike said not too bad. I thought the couple of u turns we did was part of the fun, nothing like doing that a couple times on the virgin trip I thought it went pretty smooth overall. Only suggestions I have for next time are

1. break up the run, maybe get out of the car every 30-45 mins
2. have destinations chosen for the stops in between and at the end (places to eat, campground/park/viewpoints we can stop at, etc.)
3. maybe have someone do a dry run a week or two before to make sure route is OK

I took some pics during the very beginning while in the Mazda parking lot. I should have taken more while driving but I totally forgot about it in my bag while driving. You can get higher res versions of the pics on my gallery (have to click on the pics there). LINK TO MY GALLERY
