I will be in Hershey PA at the Good Guys show with the Chevelle. I heard that is a HUGE and really crazy show down there though. Now if i can clone myself and drive one car to PA and one to Memphis i can do it..Id also be able to modify the camaro at the same time finish the chevelle. DAMN....

Watch yourself with that cloning bussiness. I dunno if you saw the Simpsons episode that i have in mind, but long story short, they had to kill all of the clones homer made of himself.......problem is the original homer died to leave a clone to live in his place. The thing is that the clones will want clones too. So just stay the hell away from magical hammocks, just my .02

Tony is right... magical hammocks can do crazy things. Last thing we need is a bunch of clones running around after giant doughnuts.

well, i put in my request to take off work to go down there. not sure if i will have a car to compete in, but i am gonan try my hardest to find something to run.
anyone interested in going to memphis wanna caravan down? looks like it will be a 14-16hour drive. i am planning to make it a single haul with stops every 3hours or so to grab eats and gas.

screw that...im not drivin 14-16 hrs for a weekend.

travel route looks like it would be pretty easy. basically take the PAturnpike out to rt81 south and follow that to rt40 west. that would land us in downtown memphis basically.
according to www.mapsonus.com it would be about a 16hour drive. but that is according to speed limits. the pa turnpike and rt81 are nice roads to run at about 80mph. so we may be able to make it there a little bit quicker :D
