I know I am (again). Doing the Long Haul, which means I am leaving the Detroit area Friday morning to get to Little Rock Saturday.

Last year we started out with 13 people going in 6 different cars. Ended up with one guy in one car; ME!

This year I have a friend coming along in his 70 Chevelle SS and another buddy flying in from California to rotate between my car and the Chevelle. I am guessing he'll be in mine more since the Chevelle is black on black and has no a/c!

Soooo, who's going? Charlie...Ken....

Me, Ken, Jody and Scott are starting a day early in Memphis and heading to Little Rock on Sat for the whole tour if the cars hold together.

Our goal is to be in Nashville Friday night to drop off some stuff at Advanced Plating and to visit with the crew there and see the facility, then head over to Little Rock Saturday.

Maybe this time we'll cross paths before we end up at the last stop! lol

I booked 3-4 nights at the "recommended" Hotel chain, so we'll be sure to meet up this time.

Good luck, I live in Memphis although not downtown Memphis, Don't mean to rattle you but keep an eye on your cars/valuables and surroundings when staying downtown. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif

I am planning on heading to Lincoln on the 10th for that stop. I can't make any more of the Tour though. I am leaving the Nova at home and decided to take the Mustang instead.

Planning on bumping around Friday and Saturday in my Z:

Chance of storms on both days, so I'm not sure if I'll wash the mud off the wheelwells/fenders beforehand or not. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif

Same here. We've had a few months of some pretty bad stuff, but think its pretty much done.

Heck, why do you think my Z is full of dirt/mud. Now if I can only find a big enough mudhole to hit at enough speed to cover up those matching #s http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/naughty.gif

Made it past Nashville with no issues and even managed to break 14 mpg! Car is running great and the a/c is blowing cold.

Onward to Little Rock tomorrow...
