Always Love a sisters run!
Are we friends on Facebook or are you in the Central Texas Corvettes group?

Cozmo and some other members of the forum did the Twisted Sisters back in October.
Should be good after Christmas since there should be less motorcycle traffic.
I live in Lakeway outside of Austin and as Cozmo says, he has a ranch home 2 minutes outside of Kerrville. I have a route that I'll post. We stopped for buffet lunch about halfway (I think it was Camp Wood, but maybe Cozmo remembers) but its a pretty remote part of Texas, so don't expect anything great.
Kerrville pretty much has everything. We stayed at the YO ranch hotel which is not cheap. But there are other chain motels around there that looked pretty nice.
I'll print off a bunch of copies of this map so all the cars have a idea of where we will be heading as we go along.
Hey sports car fans. Looking for folks who will be ready to get out of the house after spending Christmas coupled up with that crazy aunt and inlaws. Let's spend a day away clearing our heads and readjusting our attitudes. What we need is someone who knows the roads to lead us thru. We will all converge at the Home Depot in Kerville at 10 AM it's on hwy 16 just off of interstate 10. We are driving down from Plano so thats comfortable time to get there with time to drive at an enjoyable pace
The Corvetteforum Rally Relay Banner will be there as well as the placards for all the cars who come.
Please reply to this thread if you plan on coming and I'll keep a updated list in this top box.

I can probably get a lead car or whatever else we might need, if you like
I didn't go to COTA with the group. I wanted to, but we just bought a house in Kerrville and have been going out there on the weekends. I may have a happy hour there after the drive. I'll create a FB event on the central Texas Vette group.

Be sure your toupe is on securely. We might go kinda fast.

A stop off after the run would be nice before the 4 or 5 hour run back to Plano. I am pretty sure my hat will stay on up to 120 with the top down. as for food stops Im up for anything but fish or goats
Alright I'm all set for the run . My boy and I will be happy where ever you guys decide to eat.
New tires, new TPMS, new water pump, fresh antifreeze, new oil pressure sender, banner and stickers in the trunk along with 20 copies of the route map posted in the thread. oh yea almost forgot the ZO6 titanium pipes

Good job. I changed my oil yesterday, checked coolant and tires and cleaned the filter on my Halltech CAI.

The Italian place came highly recommended. I had lunch at Buzzys BBQ in Kerrville today. It was good.
I'm kinda liking the idea of the Italian place for lunch then Buzzys BBQ after the drive for BBQ and/or a cold one. They have some very tender brisket. The owner said he'd put us up in a nice private room.
I've wanted to make this trip for some time. Sounds like a good time to do it. The wife and I will likely drive to Kerville Friday and stay to Sunday.
I'm 75% in at this point. I can bring at least three motorola radios.

Awesome! I've got a Moto as well. We can pick a channel at the meet.
I am not going on this run, but would like to see your reviews on the road conditions after you go. The roads had loose gravel and not in the best of shape back in January. Please post your stories after the run. Thanks.
