Joe (98SEBlackmax), Tom (Bluesbreaker), Brad (Brad92SE), and myself are all here at the Fairfield. I've been here since Monday, and the other guys got in this evening.

Been there too. If you think that's gonna suck up your vacation and money, wait till you have a kid.
Don't tell me, I don't want to know yet. I just want it to sneek up on me and be like
It'll def kick ya in the nutz, surprise or not.
Btw, I'm gonna test the VAFC-II again this weekend and if things don't change, I'll send it to ya next week so you have something to do while your posse is gone to Maxus.

Most of the people will be there at 8:00. Right now (5pm) there are 2 groups heading to the airport to get those flying in.
Let me know if you break that average mph record...
For the whole trip including stops, no way. However I did burn through 16.8 gallons of fuel in 5:15 (about 400 miles) after I left Dallas. But on that I only managed 63 miles in the first hour. Which leaves an average of 79mph for the remaining 4:15 (before we stopped in Arkansas).
I decided not to drive through the night since we spend most of the day in the hot sun at the car show. We left the gas station at about 5pm CT yesterday and even though we were making good time it just wasn't worth it.
Oh! I forgot also I hit Road kill coming bac which damaged my front lip pretty bad and I also got a speeding ticket in Arkansas for driving 89 in a 70 speed zone but all is well I made it home. Now, to buy another Stillen lip.
Got home at noon today. Took 1 1/2 days, staying over just north of STL.
Sorry to hear about the damage and the ticket, Chris.....
Glad you made it home OK, me and Brad drove back that Mon morning and got a few Vid clips. I will post that soon. I will get that lip fix within a Month or so I'm not in a rush.
Ok Just got home now. Left Monday morning at 9 am and got back here at 6 pm...
Also going home helped this family get out of their wrecked car in Arkansas. Saw a white car start fish tailing 1/8 mile in front of me on I-30, then it disapeared off into the woods/swamp . Me and two other cars stopped to help out and we got the kids and driver out, but a guy was stuck in the car. It hit a tree and trapped him between the crushed B pillar and the center consule. It took like 3 of us and 3 paramedics to bust up enough stuff to get him out. He had a collapsed lung and some other injuries, the paramedics said he should be ok. All other passengers were cut up bad and bruised, but were otherwise ok.
So after all that I took my time getting home and drove like a granny. That and I stopped up at Tilleys new shop for an hour. 1800 miles with 2 hours of sleep since Monday morning. Total time was 34 hours.

Good move Joe.
We need to hook up so I can see what you've done to the car. I think I'm going 3.5 when my engine goes.
