TCG Tour 2015 in the books

[EmersonHart13]

Phenomenal trip, even with my fuck up. We had a great time with everyone, very nice to put faces to names and learn more about people. So many amazing cars, good people, and excellent times. I am a beer guy so I appreciated the breweries. I also like wine, as does my wife, so a stop at one or two of those is an idea for the future.

I'd gladly offer my services for future planning.

And good point Panda, I think the number of cars was right, we could have had a few more, but a big group would be very hard to manage.

 

[Intel]

Actually saw panda on the way home from this. Unfortunately my Z is down for the count with something wrong in the engine. Hoping to get it out to so me events next year as this sounded like a blast.

 

[Vogz]

I am definitely in for this next year! Mook as soon as you have a date, put it up so I can make sure I'll be off work. Sounds like you guys had a blast!

 

[Mook]

Gotta decide if we want to push it a bit after the heart of the summer or earlier in the year, like PT does.

 

[skeezer]

Will tour again.

 

[wolfe]

Sounds like a blast. Bummed I couldn't make it. I will do everything I can to be there next year.

 

[PANDA]

Will tour again.

This time stick with the group. You really missed out on taking the fast way back to the hotel Saturday.

31 was great along the lake. Sure we got stuck in some traffic in the beach towns but that IS that route is the real circle tour.

 

[EmersonHart13]

We missed that route, but we got back to the hotel late enough as it was. If we do this again, I will definitely hit up 31.

 

[Great White Drake]

No way I'm missing right brain brewery. Place was my favorite stop.

I had a great time! Great to put faces with the names on here! It was a total blast and I have zero complaints really. I'm looking forward to next year and hopefully I can have a better ride by then. Lol. Glad to see everyone made it home safely too

 

[EmersonHart13]

Phil, Agreed. And they could have handled our entire group.

Dan, better? Fuck that. See you flog on that old Vette was one of my highlights!

 

[firemandan1700]

Lol she a real peach that's for sure. Lol.

 

[EmersonHart13]

Perfect for a fall or spring tour, probably not another summer one.

Absolutely for sure.

The best thing about Mook's car breaking was it really kept the pack together on Sunday for some good shots.

I think we should schedule some time on the next tour, in a wide open space, to pack the cars up and have people pull ahead to take photos or videos. I was doing it, but with a little planning it could have been so much better.

My best thought would be find a place with two close on/off ramps or turn arounds so we can do 20 minutes of "circles" and just get a ton of rolling pics and videos in from 1 spot, then resume the day as planned.

A group photo with all the cars would have also been excellent.

 

[Mook]

I really think I'm going to "hire" a dedicated media team to come with us for the trip. Even cough up some cash to really make sure theyre into it. Whether it be DJ, Panda, or even any of you guys who want to go balls deep on pics.

 

[Jack]

honestly, you need to charge a nominal entry fee to participate.

it would do two things, you'd get a more accurate head count (people that pay, make the commitment with their $$ and not just lip service) and allow a slush fund for stickers, hand outs, photogs, etc.

That was discussed and I wasnt really on board with it but now that the event is done, I definitely support it.

 

[Yaj Yak]

well that was fast.

 

[nethingiwant]

[MENTION=2057]nethingiwant[/MENTION] on one of the two lane highways- how many cars did you pass at once, at the most? Was it like 6?

When you see an opening you gotta take it, right? Hard to count cars on ur right when your too busy watching the closing gap of the car heading at ya! Thats some of my best driving memories on this trip. That and holding you all up so I could take the twisties without bfing the cars bummer in front of me. Good times, haha

31 was great along the lake. Sure we got stuck in some traffic in the beach towns but that IS that route is the real circle tour.

I missed out on having a fucked up back sitting in the car an extra 6 hours.

 

[Bru]

I didn't find that route too scenic or enjoyable to drive. It was more of a chore than anything. Plus we whizzed by the lake so fast we didn't have much time to soak it in.
