OK. Well if people want to put together a drive after the road is done, then let me know. Is that better?

Does anyone know what Joplin looks like now? Have both sides been paved?

Does the thumbs up mean Joplin is ready to drive on now? If so, that would be good. How is Joplin looking?

Sorry I failed to post back. As of Friday, I would not drive Joplin. I started to take the road, but didn't get very far. Both sides were paved to the point I drove- not too far in- but the pavement on the one side looked like the sealant or oil was still wet.

Also, there are quite a few pebbles still on the road. We should let others drive it for about a week or so to rub that junk off the road. They are also doing something pertaining to the fire hydrant system in that area. I'm referring to the area nearest the cemetary.

Thanks for the help, FF2skip. I'll give it another couple of weeks to be safe, then it will be time to enjoy Joplin again.

I would like to run it with my track setup- alignment, tires, pads/rotors! I'm hoping it will be good-to-go the week of the 20th.
