Compete on Fri & Sat then drive home 1,000 miles on Sun.

What could go wrong?

What are you driving home? (I've been on vacation and probably missed this somewhere...).

Be safe everyone.

I am flying into Jax tomorrow morning and will keep an eye on any traffic tips posted up, thanks.

I never did work out a deal for a car of my own this year so I will just grab a rental at the airport and head to the hotel. Should be in around 1pm? I'll try to keep an eye on the forums in case anyone needs me to pick up anything/anyone along the way.

If we haven't met in years past, I am the tall, fat, white guy limping around with the carbon fiber cane... and yes everyone just calls me "tb"

Be safe, everybody!

Still- for a stock car like that, you are going to beat the heck out of it.

To do that on a used car, and THEN drive it home...

I guess it's good that you are probably not considering a NOOZZZZ shot.

Since I'm fairly local (2hrs away) and conserving money at the moment, I'll be heading to Gville early Friday morning. I'm in the faded black Miata with blue wheels and my name's Andy. See ya soon!
