I don't think his comment was directed at you, Hotrod. We just don't have the numbers that other car groups have so when one bails it either falls apart or the dates move around. We also have to drive a ways to find interesting roads, definitely not like southern California where they seem to be everywhere. I used to meet up with the RX-8/RX-7 guys once a month in Riverside. It was a sizable group so if a few had to duck out for whatever reason there were still enough cars to have a good time. Not sure we have that luxury.

I have a friend visiting next week so I'll most likely be taking a drive through Phoenix South Mountain Park. I might just post a thread and see if there's any interest in a meet. If a few people show up, great! Otherwise, I'm sure I would still have fun on my own.
We've been there done that! Been at the staging area and no one (except for Michael) showed up. The drives are so fun, just wish we could do it more often.

I know for a fact that we will be out of town the weekend of Nov. 7th. Other than that, we are available. So if you want to post a thread and figure something out for next weekend we will be available!

Does this pique your interest, Polar Blue?

Now what do you think?

I ended up driving her to a meeting I had scheduled last Saturday and a friend with his red vette was joking and conveying "Don't show up in that... you're stealing my limelight!" (I was parked near him) People then came out to admire and ask questions about the Lotus.

I'm game to meet at South Mountain next weekend. I haven't been there in a while. Name a time and I'll show up!
