I would say latest departure from the motel should be 11:30,
but it's your call.
OK then ....11:30 it is.
I don't want to miss our flight !!
If ya want to attend the Cowboys' new stadium I can try to find another member to catch a ride.
We just need two Crossfires that are not gonna go on the stadium tour.

I can probably give you a ride if needed. I live just a few minutes from the speedway.

No problems Gary. DFW Airport is on the way to the stadium.

Who is planning on going to the Cars 'n Coffee meet on the 26th?

I plan on leaving OKC early Saturday to make it there for an hour or two, but 6:30am is about as early as I can leave, which puts me there around 9am (unfortunately, I can't come down Friday night). Does anyone know how quickly it fills up?

Hope to see a bunch of you there!

We are going to arrive late Friday night. I think that several from the Motel 6 will venture that way.

This is going to be an action packed GTG!

I'll be going for sure to the cars and coffee event. I will more than likely arrive on Thursday evening. I was thinking of going to Bone Daddy's in Grapevine for dinner if I make it early enough. Anyone else up to join me?

Cool Re: Texas Motor Speedway - Running of the Xfires II - Sept. 26th

Count myself (Larry) & my wife (Jana) to all the events that are scheduled Watched the August 9th video of Cars & Coffee and that looked very cool. Since I've been a Cowboys Fan my whole life we wouldn't miss the tour Looking forward to my first GTG with y'all

Thumbs up Re: Texas Motor Speedway - Running of the Xfires II - Sept. 26th

A little something Tom2112 cooked up for me, on the "other forum". All figures and numbers are based on Stock tires, wheels, gears, and ratios. Give you a good idea what your RPM will be should you wish to gear down infront of the grandstands for sound effects. Thought I'd share this after all Tom's work so we can impress the "SMART" Cars...hmmmmmmm. Thanks again Tom.

I've updated the list with those that have said they are going to the C&C. I suspect we'll eventually have at least 10. That will make for a great Xfire showing.

I plan on going to C&C. Do we have any who wish to meet up at the hotel and caravan out there together?

Best to be there at 8:00 to be able to park as a group. It fills up pretty quickly by 8:30 - 9:00.

That is what I thought. Long drive for me to get there by 8:00 but I will see as I would hate to miss out. What is the name of the dealership and where is it?

Take the Spring Creek Parkway exit off the Tollroad. The entrance to the C&C is off the service road.
