Hey Bill. I think the SC route might be faster too, especially when you avoid the Atlanta traffic. The only thing is its a little more desolate route, so everyone needs to make sure they bring their spare tires and wheel lock keys.

I don't think too many places in BFE Georgia or BFE South Carolina have 255/35-ZR18s.

If you are rubbing with the springs on even a little bit driving spiritedly in Florida, you will be shredding your tires on the mountain roads. I err on the side of caution, So I'd go back up to stock height. EDIT: Or get a better alignment!

Willie I think the consensus of our group down here is that we're going to be staying at the Hilton in Alcoa (WTD '05). You guys staying at the village?

Hey Rick,

It would be great to see you.
I haven't registered yet as I'm not sure if I will have to go to sea over that time period. Jillian says she's in , so we're halfway there anyway
Maybe I'll just wait til October to go back to work...
