Hey y’all
I too will be driving.
I also agree with Frank about getting an early start. I am worried about getting out of the city with the construction and all. However, I may have a problem revolving around getting my co-pilot up early etc.
I was wondering if anyone would be interest in leaving the city Wednesday afternoon and driving to like Indianapolis or so then spending the evening. That would make the drive in to Columbus the next Day an easy ride. Anyway – just a thought.

I agree with Frank and Rich. Grab a bagel on the way out will be good for at least a tank of gas. Having never driven my cobra this far I don't know what to expect, but I suspect it will be bittersweet. I will follow the lead of you more experienced guys. I could probably get away with a half days work on Wednesday.

Hey, Jeffko, I thought you were going to participate in the Mid-Ohio Track event, is that now a NEGATORY?

I'm game for leaving on Wednesday afternoon. (Just in time for the evening RUSH HOUR!

)

I have too much going on right now to get the car ready for track time. The biggest problem is tires. There are no decent road race/street tires for my 15" rims but there are some great road race tires for my 15s. That leads to new rims and street tires or switching tires which leads to hauling tires, which leads to trailer, which leads to truck, which all leads to money money money. With all that stuff you have a nice looking blonde like the picture in Arcy's gallery, which leads to....even more money. Then I would get caught and I would have to get rid of the truck, trailer, tires, wheels and the blonde would move on to the next shmo. Then I would be back to were I am now with a decent car and crappy tires. However, I reverse the order and ...... I have to think about this.

Anyway, my car is a real handful on those BFG T/As so I am going to have to wait.
