I once drove a stretch of interstate at 130+ in my girlfriend at the time's Z28. It was night time, and we went all the way from Texarkana to just outside of Dallas at 130, sometimes more. Ahh, to be young and stupid.

You should hear the stories my dad tells of his time stationed at Edwards in the late 60s and what he did with his Corvette.

So who all's considering going? I seriously have no big desire to drive and would like to book a flight and room soon, but was wondering who else was thinking of flying, as to figure out transportation to and from Nellis without possibly renting a car or going halfsies, thirdsies, or less on a rental or cab. (That was one sentence, I think my journalism degree was just revoked)

Ok, so for Practice on Friday where is the "spot" to be?  This will be my first trip to Nellis.  We will be driving in on Friday afternoon, and maybe we might just bypass the hotel check in and go straight to watch the T-Birds at 2:30.

I keep hearing somthing about Cheyenne Ave... ???

That is one of the major spotting streets.  I think that is for recoveries.  Anyone else?  Chime in.

Weather looks like it might be a little cool.  Intellicast has Saturday at a high of only 62, and a low of 39.  Can't complain about that! :D

I've already got that all figured out and in my GPS. Don't you worry. :D Oh, and don't worry about the driving either. I can slide a car sideways and still make it between cones, I'm all pro.  ;)
