1280 miles = poSSum proportions.
Make a holiday of it!! We are!!
MapQuest times are way too conservative ... we can comfortably average 60-65 MPH including gas stops.

... it's about 670 miles each way for us.
Dan - you and Grace and the other NH contingents can layover at our place and then we can all set out together with the MD group to BG.
Posted by HTWLSS (Member # 117) on :
We're hoping to hook up with J.R. & Natalie in K.C.
Posted by DanA_F99_1977 (Member # 118) on :
Yes Thom it was Mapquest.
MikeF, thanks for the offer. I think I will cutting across Penn and meeting others in Columbus. I am leaving on Wednsesday and will meet in Columbus on Thursday then go the rest of the way to BG on Thursday. That way we'll be there for Friday morning.
My route takes me from 81 to I76 to 70. 70 and 71 meet in Columbis where we are hoping to meet up with others. Then its 71.

It took our group about 11 hours from the DC area. But it was definitely worth it!

Around 300 miles and 4 hours for the CICC crew....hopefully bringing 20+ cars! Posted by Joey Red (Member # 550) on :
It'll take me 4 boxes of Oreos to get there. I don't measure in miles. Actually I haven't planned a route yet nor departure time. I'll be take a week off so it'll be whenever I feel like heading down. I'll be flexible.

Hmmmmm, according to the Rand McNally Trip Planner, 1852 miles for a driving time of 26 hours, 54 minutes for Joey Red.
That's one box of Oreo's, approximately every 6 hours, 45 min. Of course, it depends on whether that's regular size or the COSTCO size boxes.

Yup, same distance if we meet in the middle.
Posted by Robbie-97SS2902 (Member # 206) on :
605 miles each way...10hrs or so
Posted by Matt's 30th SS (Member # 1164) on :
I looked it up on Yahoo maps the other day, and it looks like it is going to be about ~740 miles one way from good ole D/FW Tx. So about 12 hours, or more like 14 hrs since the wifey likes to take MANY pit stops. Get what I mean. Oh yeah, Is it September yet? I can't wait. By the way, I have a 30th anniversary SS and I was wondering if there was a big turnout of similar cars of mine last year?
Posted by JeffY (Member # 120) on :
I used to commute it(by car)every week for 3-4 years, it seemed from Detroit. Then they finally let me fly!!
Posted by DanA_F99_1977 (Member # 118) on :
But you are going to borrow a Camaro and drive this time ..... right Jeff? Posted by DaddySS (Member # 848) on :
865 miles, 14 hours....can't wait! Posted by Xsta Z 28 (Member # 740) on :
436 miles, 7-ish hours and hopefully bringing TWO SS's Posted by Kevin V 2002 SS (Member # 1025) on :
I'm pretty lucky, I only live about 110 miles away in Louisville, KY. A short hop.
Posted by 2002Z4CSS (Member # 1393) on :
My guess would be approx 8 hrs. to get there! Maybe a bit less!
Actually I haven't planned a route yet nor departure time. I'll be take a week off so it'll be whenever I feel like heading down. I'll be flexible.
