It's nice to see more people making the long haul in their cars.
My guess is you will be following a similar route to me. I'm leaving from NE Indiana about 8 am Friday. Plan right now is I-69 South to Indy, I-70 over to 55, down to 57, then come in the West side of Memphis. Should put us at the host hotel about 6pm. We considered I-65 down to Nashville, but that is a long, boring route. 55 & 57 look much more scenic going down near the Mississippi River...
I would follow 69 to 155 that goes through Dyersberg, TN. I've been down that route many a time and going through AR and MO will be met with a lot of traffic, I think. Maybe it's not as far as I think, but the host hotel is at 240 and 40, which is on the northeast side of the city and 55 comes in due west across the river. Better entrance, but it may be further. But I've done the drive from Indy to my house MANY times and I can do it in about 6 hours, maybe just a little shy of that.

I'll look into that route. I know when I ran Google maps, it gave me the choice of going I-65 to Nashville & over, or I-70 to 57 to 55. There was only a mile difference & about 3 minutes difference between the two routes. I'm just looking for something besides 4 lane boredom. But I don't want to get stopped in every little 1 stop light town either...
Nevermind, it's only faster if you go by my house. Which, I am inviting everyone who is coming in Friday to come to my house, but understand if everyone is tired from driving and wants to crash at the hotel. I'll post up the thread closer to the event, but you are welcome to come by Friday night for sure.

Well I really need to get the engine out so I can paint the bay and install a 555 that's just sitting in my garage, but come on by! Not sure if Slowe will be there Friday night or not, but he's the one that did the major work to it and can receive the accolades for the amazing job.

It's one of the reasons I have been coming since SDAC 18.

I've got one for you Greg. Take I-69 south into Indy, Go east around the loop to tie into I-70 west(It's 8 miles shorter then going around the west side, trust me) Pick up SR 41 south just before leaving Indiana and take it all the way thru' Evensville into Kentucky and pickup I-69 again WELL HELLO, THEIRS THAT ROAD AGAIN and take it all the way into Tennessee 'TIL YOU TIE INTO SR-51 SOUTH. Ask Minigts how that hooks up with his place. I'll miss you guys, tip over a long neck for me, Jer

JT, Alan, Wayne. You guyz are makin' me feel all warm 'n fuzzy. Have fun down in Graceland and try and stay cool. I mean you'z all cool dudez we know but like, the muggy meter iz off the chart in that town. Last time I waz there the only time I got cooled down waz in the shower and cruisin' on the river(There waz ah slight breeze) Oh? And ice tea won't help. It only keeps you awake and you gotta wear ah catheter. St Pauli iz way better, trust me, Jer
Does anybody want to split a room? I already booked a room with two beds. I'll be there Friday thru Wednesday morning. [/I]
