WCCC Iron Butt!

[Steno]

Greeting from south of the Mason-Dixon line! I've decided to move my car to Fla for the winter. I just hate to stare at the car 6 months of the year!
I had planned to drive to Atlanta and meet up with local folks and drive Tail of the Dragon,Blood mountain, and a few other sporty roads. With the weather as a major factor, I had to leave early and head straight through to Florida Headed straight down through Illinois as I flirted with the rain in southern Il. Got to Atlanta in 12 hours flat and took a few hours to shower and nap.The next morning I bugged out and made it to Melbourne Fla in @ 8 hours.
These cars beat you up a bit on the lonnnnnnnng drives. A thanks goes out to Jerry and Corey for setting up my car. The car ran wonderfully at higher than legal speeds and I got better gas milage than my mini-van! MPG was @ 23.5!
There's an active car club here in Melbourne and in Dec I may be taking the car to run my car on the track at DAYTONA! We'll see how that all works out.
All said, it was a great trip, but I would have enjoyed it more had I done more along the way. I do miss the rolling hills I have right out my front door though. Here it's like driving around on a pool table!Not too many hills to power up or slide down!
Later,
Sten
