[DeTomaso] [SCPOCA] Caravan to the Fun Rally

[John Taphorn]

Thanks for taking the time to get the ball rolling on this adventure.  This route looks like a reasonable compromise to align drivers from the midwest and southwest.  I imagine that a more scenic northerly route though New Mexico may encounter snow.  

Dr Engles, is there another route that the OK gang is considering?

        I believe a number of us have expressed interest in a caravan of cars from Texas, Oklahoma and perhaps Kansas to the fun Rally in Chandler Arizona.

        I thought I might start by proposing a stawman of a possible timeline and route. From playing a bit on Mapquest it appears that the folks from Houston can go through Dallas without much incremental mileage.

        So I propose that those of us from Houston, Oklahoma and maybe Kansas plan to meet up in Fort Worth on the evening of April 23. We would head out first thing in the morning of April 24 with an initial destination of Midland Texas. We could stop in Midland for lunch and a visit to the Jim Hall museum. We would then head on to Las Cruces New Mexico . That would be a little over 10 hours of driving on the 24th.

        The next morning we would head on to Chandler which is 5 or 6 hours from Las Cruces which should get us there at a decent time on Wednesday. 

        Perhaps I could ask for thoughts on the route and other places to stop and see.

        Please forward this email to anyone else that you think would be interested.

        From my notes I show the following people as having expressed some level of interest in this adventure

        Rob Pink
        John Taphorn
        Jim Gray
        Ed Nagel
        Steve Hawkins
        David Bell
        Bill Lewis
        Will Kooiman
        Jeff Detrich
        Chuck Engels
        Bob Radefeld

        Please let me know if you plans are firming up and if others are also interested.

        Rob
