If I go I'll be running mine. 10 hours from home won't stop me. We'll just need some very cool weather and I'll get a decent number.

Maybe I could barrow it if you dont break to tow mine home with a broken input shaft?

Haha, I drove from WY to CLEAR down to SAR in TX, 1300 miles in Feb. Broke the output shaft off the tranny on the 3rd pass . Cody (1slow01z71) was the man though, he went and got his trailer, towed me to his garage and helped me swap in a spare stock 60e he had to get me home. I tried to give him some money for it and he wouldn't take it, just told me to ship the tranny back to him when i was done with it.

Oh, and I fully plan on being asked to slow down or leave the track or this thing is going home on the trailer!!! I'm excited about this meet! I should be moved to OR by then so its only about a 4 1/2 hour drive I think.

Well, my family is mostly located in a small town called Oakland, it's about 15 miles north of Roseburg on I-5. I think I'll be some where around there. Nothing is set in stone yet...
