Sounds fun. I'd think pretty much anywhere we have it the locals would know good driving roads. I've been on great vette cruises in TN, KY, Florida, TX (both Dallas and Houston areas,) etc....

If we really could get something like this going we could probably change locations from year to year to different parts of the country.

I still would like to have a presence at Carlisle every year though

I'm all about the party at Carlisle.

But seriously, do a 3 or 4 day trip picking up more and more locals along the way?

In a C5 yes. In a C3 it's an endurance trial. Especially with manual brakes and non-hydraulic clutch.
