Hi guys and gals,

The Tennessee Valley Rx8 club is in the planning stages of a drive out to Cheaha MTN, June 28th (Tentatively), just south of Anniston. If anyone in the area is interested in meeting us YELL! This last week's club meeting was the largest gathering we've had, in the 18 months we've been together. There were 16 8's there, and an FD and I'd say 20+ people. It was great!

Usually we try to hit as many twisties as we can coming and going, so we want you all to join us for a great days drive! If anyone knows of a good place to eat,a BBQ or with some decent choices, speak up. Someone from that area will know better than we do!

The details are still being worked out, but here's a link that you can follow.

We hope to see you there!

COOL Kyle! Spread the word. I think there's a thread on the MRCCAL site about a previous try at getting something like this together. Give it a bump and link this thread please.

UPDATE!:

All is set guys for the Cheaha run. Our lunch place is closing at 2 so we'll need to be on time. They can accommodate us and are willing to stay a little late, but They are leaving on vacation so we won't want to hold them up to bad. I think if we get together and are there by noon we'll be fine.

See the tvrx8 website for complete details!

Cool make sure you bring a walkie and extra batteries. There should be about 15 cars altogether if everyone shows, so we'll need some form of communication.

The TVRX8.org site has the complete details, ( register, we don't bite!) LOL and I guess ya'll can set up a meet for a caravan there.

I ask that you be on time though. We only have a 2 hour window for lunch, and a large crowd to take care of.

See ya there!

For all those IN B'ham, where would be a convenient area to meet? Seeing as how we'll need to get on 20E, is there a common place we could meet at of of 20 (I'm fairly new to the area)?

So, we'll meet at 10:30 at the Wal-Mart in Pell City? I be in my Nordic Green.

Care to offer any directions to this Wal-Mart? I'll google it but it'd be nice to know how to get there off of 20E.

I think this should be what you need. Matt If I'm wrong correct it!

Depending of course on where you live will be where you hit 20, but It's not that far from "downtown B'ham" I don't think.
