One per group, and I'd extend the interval to three minutes. IF there were a problem, it would give the sweep car time to turn around and slow down/warn the others BEFORE the next group came upon something.
Another idea is that the lead and sweep cars in each group have a radio for communication.

Ten seconds spacing per car within each group will not matter much once we start moving. We need to remind all drivers to KEEP that distance throughout the drive to ensure that there will be no tailgating or bunching up.

yeah im pretty sure people will begin to bunch up in thier groups very soon, especially since alot of people really need to follow someone to know where they are going that havent been on these roads before. though I think it would be good to remind everyone to leave a SAFE REASONABLE distance from the car in front of you, you all know who you are Im talking about

I have 2 FRS/GMRS radios with 22 sub channels.
the FRS radios are limited by lam3 FCC regulations so the power on the FRS channels is less then the GMRS channels.
So if you have radios, I would recommend the radios with sub channels for privacy.
I have 2 FRS/GMRS radios that can be used as well.

Take the YOLANDA AVENUE exit towards HEARN AVENUE.
Turn RIGHT onto SANTA ROSA AVE.
Cant miss it, hope that helps?

Edit, I just saw we're meeting in the Pier 1 lot. That's just a bit farther down past KK on Santa Rosa avenue on the right hand side.

why did we switch the meet point to the cost plus parking lot?
the SRKK is right at the end of the freeway offramp, and its MUCH easier to get out of and keep a group together onto the freeway from there. And they have donuts there, c'mon!
