You can almost see it. It's right next to the frwy. It's not that bad!

Driving from SD? dang, that's hardcore.

Anything about if someone falls behind a bit? Do we just leave them be? or some sort of buddy system? :P

We will strive to not let anyone left behind. We will issue a few cell #'s at the meet point. We will also have a few people in the rears that know the route to help folks get through.

That's going to require a wake-up call too early for me, maybe the next one will be within a tank of gas next time....

I don't know man... some of you guys are starting to prove me right!

Btw, we had a great cruise today and I want to thank the great group of RX-8s that came out... nothing cooler than cruising with 35+ other rotary vehicles.

Who say car can't fly? Well, I think this one tried to fly or seemed to be flying :D (Too bad I didn't have my camrecorder with me)

I'm exhausted, so goodnight and thanks everyone for making it's a fun trip for me.

I had a great time. My USB connector for my camera seems to have gone missing so photos will have to wait, but hey Bern i showed up. Red RX-8... I wish I coulda taken the part 2 trip, but I had to run some errands, but then not bad considering I only had 2 hours of sleep the night before.

Same here - had a great time!

Thanks to Bern for posting this here, and to Adolph (fearless leader) for mapping out such a varied and challenging route!

Why is this only an annual event? Can't wait 'til next year!

Great time as well, thanks Bern and Adolph.
Thats the most fun I've had in a great long while.
Over 500 miles for me and the car didn't beat me up one bit.
