You should post your invite on the Yahoo groups, North Texas Lotus web site.
You'll get to more of the local Lotus crowd that way.

I have attempted different times and days, I have found that the early runs have less traffic, almost no police intervention ( I have seen 2 in 9 years of doing these drives ) and no wait when we arrive at lunch.

I know , I know, it IS early! I for one hate getting up that early to meet up, but it makes it easier.

Now, when we head to Kerrville again or Hot Springs, that's another story... stay up late, sleep later, no time limits... !!!!

When you guys are done you could swing by the State Fair and watch a good lookin Lotus owner cook Crab Cakes and Key Lime Pie at the IKEA Celebrity Chef Stage. I go on at 4:30

I would do the drive but I have to prep 200 of each for samples, but you guys have fun!

That may just work! All we need are parking passes for the cars....
