We'll see... I'll have to think about it. It's a long drive and I'd probably have to take time off from work.

I hope I can make it also. I have to get some paint work done and was hoping to buy a couple goodies before the so we will see.

Also should we make it a two day drive or just haul ***** and do it in a day?

Figure it would take about 22hrs non stop. Leave thursday afternoon and just bomb down with a big Costco case of Red Bull in the trunk. Stop some where around the Oregon/Cali border and sleep. Rail down friday morning and play on the beach while the rest of the group rolls into town. Sounds like a good idea to me.

How far north are you? I'm thinking it should be around 16 - 17 hours from Seattle.

Knee deep. It said like almost 19 hours but give the account of traffic too. Thats my plan if I drive. Id like to leave wed and spend a day in the sun chasing hot girls on the beach. I guess that means I need to tan my ghost skin. Thats "IF" I even drive, I might just fly.

Are you going Dondo? I figured about $415 for gas from my house. I just figured 18mpg and $3.00 a gallon. I hope for better than 18 but the best I have ever gotten is 19.38.

Assuming you guys get 275 miles per tank then expect it to take 4.3 tanks of gas each way.
