Mapquest

I am going down but I have to make a stop in Leamington and it takes me about 12 hours.

Try www.mapquest.com and tell them where you are going from and to and they will give you a complete set of directions. Last year when I used mapquest I "think" they figured just over 13 hours for me but I drove a little (10 mph) over the speed limit.

I will see you down there!

There should be quite a few people from around here going.
Takes 12 to 14 hours depending..... ;)
Take 401 to Detroit.
At Detroit take I 75 south to I 71
I 71 south to I 65 south.
Exit on to Scottsdale Rd.
The Host hotel is the Travelodge at the corner of Scottsdale Rd and I 65. Everybody there will know where the track is.

Of course I am kidding. I am just jealous that I am stuck working while you bums get to go play.

Have fun, hosers.

RogueVette- would you like I kick your ass?????;) Are you bringing your car down to Bowling Green again Mike? I damn near **** my pants the other day. I went by Racetronix to bother Jack and I saw your son there. What are you feeding the kid? I am looking up to him now. He must be 6 foot 1 or something. No longer a kid anymore huh?


BigMike- pretty soon your not going to have enough room to list all those mods in your sig. Looks good. What do you hope she runs?

Ya... that would be nice, thanks
I'll take the car to BG again. I enjoy cruising the streets waiting for the Buick’s in town to beat up on a poor Vette. A few of them wonder why my car sounds so similar to theirs.

Daniels gotten big!... probably the steroids in the Swiss Chalet chicken. ;)

Mike, I look forward to our annual dinner out down there.
