Oh, yeah. That's hardly a drive at all!

How are you getting from NPR to SPC Philip? I'm in NPR as well and have found the easiest way to SPC as far as traffic and hassle is to head over 54 to the Suncoast Parkway, take the Parkway south to 275, take 275 across the bridge and south to SPC. It may be a bit longer in miles, but it's shorter in time do to cruising speed and way less hassle with lights and traffic.
To get to Brooksville, I take 52 to the Suncoast Parkway and then head north to County Line Road. It's a quick hop east on County Line Road to 41 then north on 41 till you cross the railroad tracks then the next left gets you to the airport gate.
Surprisingly, both these trips take almost the same in time.

I cross 19 and take East Lake (611) down and then jump back on 19 for the rest. East Lake is OK most of the time ( faster I think ) but I found many nuts behind the wheel on 19.

If you're taking 611, stay on it across the bridge, then Roosevelt to 275. The only time I'll take 19 instead of that route is if I'm towing the trailer because I don't like to tow at highway speeds with my beater truck.

That was my first idea, can't remember why I thought 19 would be better

Registration closes Monday, and I'd really like to see a few more entries. We're at 65 right now. 80+ is preferred. 20 drivers per run group is what works best for the format that we run.
So, help us beat the bushes and get people out for the first event of the new season!
Thanks.

Can't wait to shake off the cobwebs in the Z4. I've been driving a motorhome, SUV and riding motorcycles since June. See y'all Saturday.

Well, this might be the last straw for this car. Looks like the computer is shot. Hope to send it off tomorrow, so I'll be missing the first event of the year. F me. Anyone have some lighter-fluid I can borrow?

Why don't you convert it to Megasquirt? Seems like it's begging for it.

I will. Will also have a couple of leftover EnduroCross shirts if anyone is interested.

Crap, forgot about that. I can drive up to help with course setup. I'd still make it home in time to take the kids to the beach in the morning. I'll have the suburban so I can tow the trailer up as well if need be.
