Y'all making it home OK?
we left Gainesville 5PM-ish Sunday headed north on 75. [edit] Stayed overnight at maschinenbau's just north of ATL. Bonus for us as we got to see the 2JZ hot rod and the el Camino in person. [/edit]
Currently crushing some Waffle House, will be on the road to MI shortly.
Im home, unpacked, and have the vaguest beginning of rehydration.
Be safe my friends.

Geez man, don't start a sentence with "crashed" in a thread about getting home safe! Had me worried. Glad everyone is doing okay.

The Saab landed at home at about 0330 this morning after an uneventful 12ish hour drive. The only excitement was stopping at Buc'ees for brisket, ice cream, and charcuterie-in-a-cup.
Lotus arrived safely in Atlanta last night. Indeed waffle house was excellent with Angry and Mofo. Hosting more guests tonight after the Bad Decisions Triangle does their track day.

We made it home, then my son found a $400 mustang for the next year's challenge. 3 hours round trip to bring home another car.
I will probably be on the road for another two weeks. Stayed in a hotel in Brunswick GA last night; I really wanted a long shower and a real bed to sleep in. Heading north today and another hotel tonight as campsites seemed overpriced and limited going up the coast. Actually going to have real bed sleeping for the next week or so which sounds pretty nice.
Currently sitting at a train in folkston, ga. We hit the okefenokee National wildlife refuge. will be home sometime tomorrow evening. Had breakfast with Gumby and said goodbye to pat, bill, tb, the leftover GA tech crew, and headed north on a new route. Heading toward 95 now to make only my 2nd diesel stop of the round trip from Cleveland.

Totally. When I have time I travel in early and leave late; the entire hotel just feels wrong if it isn't filled with friends...
Currently, the Caddy has been loaded into the train and we are waiting for our turn. We toured the back roads of Ocala Nat. Forest this morning. I have been congratulating my wife and daughter constantly on their multiple awards, they deserve the credit.
Who picked up the folding table I left in the parking lot?
In reply to wvumtnbkr :
Robbie has it. We can leave it at Maschinenbau tonight if that helps.
I'm arguing with traffic somewhere in Kenfuc#y.
Currently sitting at my desktop at work reading this thread. Living 2 hours from the event has it's perks I suppose.
Did I unpack the Q? No. Should I? Ehhhhhhhhhhhhh
I may be missing my 5-6ah dewalt 20v battery and usb charging adapter for it, if anyone grabbed that by mistake.

I'm at a ramen shop two miles from my house.
If anyone was near me, I either have horrible allergies from Gainesville or I'm sick. Take your vitamin C
I made it home by 4pm today and am enjoying cold beverages as I type...
Great seeing and hangin out with everyone again. only 11 months to go.
Leaving dinner in blythewood sc
Pointed the rental east leaving Gainesville and didn't stop till I found ocean.
Down the coast. Made a couple sight seeing stops
Wandered around the entrance at KSC but wasn't paying full price for a day pass with only 2hrs till closing, so headed for the airport.
Final leg. Should be in my own bed around 0130

Pine pollen in the spring can be real rough in FL if that's on your allergy bingo card.
Huntersville NC for the night
