"How much rum can a GT hold?" :biggrin I think Ralphie's the best person to answer that question Jeff.
We are all having a blast, and I have to say this is one of the most organized and fun GT cruises I've been on (and we still have a lot to do today). Rich has done an extraordinary job of putting this together. We saw a side to the Grand Canyon that most of us had no idea existed. "Get your kicks on Route 66." The drive along the Mother Road on Historic Route 66 was like something out of a movie. I wish I had seen what it was like in its heyday. A must see for any car fanatic!! The food has been great as well, and there are a number of stops with fun things to do and see along the way.
Although not planned that way, you are right, the ride was like a tribute to Carroll Shelby, and we toasted him at dinner. Looking forward to the second half today!! :thumbsup
