Seems as if there's about 5 Dallas people posting in this thread. I'm always up for putting some more miles on my car. If yall ever decide on a date to do the Red River Cruise or another I'm in, just shoot me a PM.

I did a modified version of the Red River Cruise

This is good Sunday drive, total distance 145 miles, time 2 hrs without stopping.
I have been spoiled since I did drives in the Hill Country outside, Austin, TX and the Ozark Mountains around Eureka Springs and the infamous Tail of Dragon at the NC/TN border, all this past year.
But as far as a quick drive from Dallas area, this route is pretty entertaining. Not too challenging, a few twisties, some good straights and a fair amount of triple digit driving. The highlight of the driving is from Muenster to St. Jo. Beautiful scenery, good elevation changes and a large wind farm.
I started at 10:30 on a Sunday morning and traffic was minimal, I had to pass only 3 cars all day. I would expect more traffic on weekdays and Saturdays, but since there are plenty of long straightaways, passing is not a problem.
All in all it was a very enjoyable drive, it is not going to test you to your limits but you will have fun time

I arrived at 800a with same issue. It seems 730a is the required time. The british section is usually not crowded either. I walked over and no astons in sight. Next month..

Did you end up making it? Didn't see any 991's.
Yeah, I arrived at 7:30 and although I was able to get in, it was very packed on the PCar row.
Yeah, there were Aston's scattered about.
