Matt and I will have the camera as usual but no go-pro.

I have a Go-Pro Hero 4, I'm not ballsy enough to suction cup it to the exterior unless someone has experience?

How low friendly is this? My scavenger pump is sitting low at the moment.

Stu ran the route with me a few days ago in his track-prepped E46 which is pretty low. The ride sucked because his suspension and bushings are super stiff but he wasn't bottoming out on anything.

i have used the go-pro suction mount at Road America going faster than you ever will on this cruise and it did not fall off. They are really strong.

Thanks there is about a 100% chance of me being there in a bmw and a 50% chance of me being there. 

Will there be several lead cars to guide groups? It seems like a decent amount of people are going then add in the lurk factor.

it's an easy route and i don't think we're going to have enough people for there to be a problem there.

Not to mention the amount of traffic on those roads should be next to none. You should have a very unlikely chance of getting split up=)

Also, there is one change to the route - instead of turning onto Oak Dr. to Hwy 28 to Moraine Dr, we will instead take Hwy H to Moraine Dr and head north and resume the normal route. Everything else is the same.

I was hoping the gravel would be gone from Oak Dr. by now but after re-running the route a couple days ago, I can confirm that it is still shit.

That's unfortunate as there are some pretty nice bends on that road ;(

Looks like the weather will cooperate! Have a great time and remember to post pics for those of us with E30s
