More driving events, twisty crusies. How to travel in large groups without getting separated due to traffic conditions.

Also some non-driving events, paintball, gun range, Dave and Busters, Movie days, How about a Lake picnic where we can actually rent water craft like jetskiis and boats, Speedzone meets. So much to do and so much time to do it in.

I would vote for everything but the poll won't let me. Maybe once a month we do a non driving event, maybe the 3rd or 4th Saturday every month. Something to think about.

This is where a calendar would come in handy.

I would love to go on more cruises. Great ideas though!

i always have a better chance of showing up for picnics and what not...only coz it's usually a family thing. i get to take the kids with me so i get the best of both...spend time with the family and have fun with my hobby. now that the wife has her own evo it'll be easier to show up coz we can both drive

but those things are prolly only good if done annually or bi-annually so no one gets tired of it.

Tuesday night speedzone is always fun.

Paint ball fields by Grapevine Lake are fun. Not huge so the out of shape folks can do ok.

I am always up for a track day.
