decesions decesions ..

 

What decision is there to make? Just do it. If you don't do the Dragon at least once in your life, and you're a car lover, then your life was not worth living.

 

Alright ... if plane tickets to cali are rediculous, then ill just have to come to the Dragon ...

 

Thursday evening..We both have to work Thursday unfortunately.

 

Will you be going through North Carolina or Virginia?

 

Dont know yet..havent mapped out the drive...Bill(bearnva) has been before and this is my first trip,so he probably knows the route better...why whats up?
P.S. Wild Wings tonight?

 

The only method I have used is going through Virginia. However, last year Alex played around with making the trip down 58 and going through NC. He said that they hit a lot of rain on the way back, making their average speed 25-30mph through most of NC. Average speed going through VA for Alex is around 80-90.

He said the trip going through NC at that speed was just as long as doing the average speeds going through VA. It's 100 miles shorter


PS - Yes sir!

 

The insurance rates on my new car are ridiculously high... guess that is the joys of going with a 2001 as opposed to a 1991. Either way - I'm certain the Thursday AM Caravan to and Sunday AM from Caravan will have our occasional quick spurts, but I plan to maintain about 5-9mph over most of the trip.

 

Yeah Im sure the rates are unbeleivable...the thats the price you pay for "owning an NSX"..
Too bad we cant leave sooner so we can caravan with you guys....but I cant get both days off....plus I dont know if I could push my car 100mph the whole way..cough Alex cough::
