Big Bend Open Road Race (West Texas)

Every year a 60 mile stretch of highway in West Texas is closed to the public and open to high speed adrenaline junkies (like me). Several members of our local DFW ///M club are planning to make the (approx) 500 mile trek to the event this April. The opportunity to (legally) cruise at 100+ mph for 60 miles x 2 (race is A to B then B to A) for a total of 120 miles is hard to resist. Here's a link to the official website http://www.bborr.com/

Who's in?
