Anyone from my neck of the woods heading down?

anyone coming from NY or anything east coast let me know so we can get something up...sign up here and I'll organize it like I did the Carlisle caravan...can't freaking wait!!!

If they had autocross I'd be tempted to go. There is a FX16 I'd like to pick up down there anyway =/

roughly 10 hours for one of the biggest Car meets in the country.

I'd wager that people from SoCal and Seattle will show up.

From here, yeah. Ain't no 10 hours, NO how...

It's more like 13 unless you're crazy and don't need to pee, eat or get out at all. 81 is a btich.

I haven't driven to the DC are in like 5 years...I was thinking it's closer to 10hrs...

yeah....40 and 81 gives me an estimate of 10 hrs.

that's assuming there's not traffic or anything.

last time I drove up there, me and a buddy made there leaving here about 9, showed just outside of Andrews airbase around 6.

we didn't um...obey the posted limits.

wait, that's not right....yeah, it was 9-8.

I think you should come down here, it's really fun... not saying your CCA road race wouldn't be. I'd do whatever is cheaper but i'm hoping that's Nashville for ya.

Damn, I wish I had checked this thread sooner... They are still in my house in Alabama and I won't be able to get them until the end of this month. Excuses aside, I should have grabbed them when you called me earlier this year, sorry bout that.
