Its 41 miles from Rt 46 to the springs so we are looking at around 85 to 90 round trip as the route back through Deland is a bit longer. Realistically, no one should use more than a 1/4 tank unless you are driving Sean's 77

And I just posted this on the other thread, but it bears repeating. I might not be there until 10 or so. Again, please make sure everyone is fueled before we leave Rt 46 at 11. We will do our best to stay together, but with a group this large everyone going is responsible for knowing the route in advance and making their own way. Please make sure to print the map on the other thread. If we get split up, we all have time to meet at Alexander Spring to join back up. Much of the route is nice and rural. From Alexander back through Deland we should have no problem staying together. And, lets all keep it sane and cool, if you know what I mean

I am looking forward to meeting up with everyone tomorrow. Moved back to this area after being gone for decades and haven't been able to connect with any Corvette owners or events yet.Hope tomorrow hurries up, I can't check my fluid levels and tire pressures too many more times....

Couple videos I shot, apologizes ahead of time for the shaky camera. If you play the videos on youtube, you can go full 1080p

Right now, Wynn! Wow, guys, I'm blown away. It was an absolute killer time and awe inspiring to see that many cars on the road together from 3 different generations. Everyone was so cool and I'm elated that everything went off without a hitch which is a miracle with 17 cars at the onset. A genuine thanks to you all (too many to name here) for joining in. It was icing on the cake that Julio and Andrew even got to come along spur of the moment. Julio promised to join CF so I hope he sees this. It's something that I've wanted to do for quite a while and it couldn't have been more perfect with a better mix of down to earth Vette people. ***** is getting the pix together and I'll post them up as soon as they are edited. Where are we going next?

I heard that. Maybe I'll be in my new Z by then. I love the vids, but you had to be there to get the full impact of the experience, for sure. There's no way to describe seeing a line of 17 vettes following you in your rear view. It was truly an honor to lead. I'm thinking a run through some back roads in Osceola Co next time over to Dixie Crossroads. I'll start planning!

As I was expecting! Great time, great people, great cars, great cruise. Nice meeting a lot of you guys. Thank you Jesse (aka: Zap City) for leading to this success. Can't wait for the next one!
Maybe we can look into CFRC for a Road Coarse or with time go to Daytona Speedway like it was mention(sorry, I didn't got his name).
Anyways, Great Time!

The Run was beyond awesome! Being part way back in the pack, I had a lot of fun watching people as they realized how many of us were driving by. The disappointed guy mowing his lawn was the best! You could see he would have loved to have been with us!!!!
Great to meet everybody too!
Did I hear Dixie Crossroads?????
Thanks again!
