I could use some advice from you locals. this will be my first trip to daytona from NPR. here is what the map sites suggest:

I was thinking of taking I75 north to SR46 to I-4. I don't like the idea of driving south like the two links I posted suggest. thoughts?

[tom21]

I don't like the idea of I-4. go north to 50? I think I might do my best to stay clear of I-4.

[WaveDemon]

I don't like the idea of I-4. go north to 50? I think I might do my best to stay clear of I-4.

I'm leaning toward north on i75 to west on sr 46 to northwest on i-4. you miss orlando that way.

[parrdaddy]

Hey guys, can I play here? :Banane01:

My wife and I will be leaving from Tampa sometime Friday afternoon, after we get Chick's 24' trailer unloaded into a storage unit:banghead:

[WaveDemon]

Hey guys, can I play here? :Banane01:

My wife and I will be leaving from Tampa sometime Friday afternoon, after we get Chick's 24' trailer unloaded into a storage unit:banghead:sure thing parr. maybe you can hook up with ollie to caravan over? unload a trailer? did you move here, I know you talked about it a long time ago.

[parrdaddy]

sure thing parr. maybe you can hook up with ollie to caravan over? unload a trailer? did you move here, I know you talked about it a long time ago.

We are moving there this week, but I'll be back in Houston for a while still since I STILL have not found a job in FL! My wife got a transfer with Walgreen's so she is going now.......and I'll be all alone in Houston....lonely and scared :haha:

[WaveDemon]

is tampa big enough for parr and bogart? :biggthumpup:


what type of work do you do? maybe one of the tampa guys could give you a lead?

[i met a superjet]

I met a superjet and big toe : probably heading out around between 8 and 9 am on friday morning.

[WaHoo_1]

is tampa big enough for parr and bogart? :biggthumpup:

rocket scientist:sneaky:

[tom21]

alright then- kidsare gonna skip school and I will hook up with you guys- Big toe and IMSJ- if its cool with you. which route are you taking? a friend of mine drives all over for his job and Iwas discussing 50 to orlando he said that was a very good way to go to miss all the bs on I-4. 75 to 50 to 1-4.

[tom21]

I'm leaning toward north on i75 to west on sr 46 to northwest on i-4. you miss orlando that way.

yeah that way does look cleaner.:arms: :arms:

[i met a superjet]

we are taking the route with the most taco bells

im not sure what we are gonna take.. we will plan it out tonight or tomorrow.. when we head out ... should we meet at your shop and then depart from there so we will TRAVEL together?

[tom21]

define together. i like the no strings travel- if I'm late, leave without me. when you guys stop because the tacos are making a run for the border I catch up. but we are still within a few minutes of each other in case soemthing happens. I prefer to ride in a group but have had trips to rainbow river with eight or ten cars and somebody pulls over at every fricken restroom/fastfood joint:aargh4: :aargh4: :aargh4: :aargh4: :17: and it just becomes a hurry up and wait. thats why I like here is where we leave from - this is the time this is the route. be there. or catch up or we will catch you thing. honestly I have 3 kids and am always late. so.......if wew time this right and take the same path we can hook up with tim, pat is leaving around the same time, if Reed holds up a little we will all be together- cept danny - where he at? ollie pulling out later. who are we missing? chris and danny. Parrdaddy is hooking up too right? I mean with this many cars half stop and then the other half does and we all end up in Daytona near the same time. and squeeze in a ride:arms: :arms: :arms:

[parrdaddy]

rocket scientist:sneaky:

That's not really what it's called :haha: I'm a Mech. Engineer, and I'm trying to transfer to KSC but have not come up with anything yet :frown:

[tom21]

KFC is hiring rocket scientists? j/k

[WaveDemon]

That's not really what it's called :haha: I'm a Mech. Engineer, and I'm trying to transfer to KSC but have not come up with anything yet :frown:

[Rockstar]

Ill be leaving around 7pm unfortunatly. Maybe I can just call out all together.

I like the idea of taking the tacobell route. :arms: Maybe you could mapquest it!:biggthumpup:

[FLY6584]

I'm probably going to be arriving in Daytona at about 10PM. I have to take a little different route than ya'll. I-75 to I-10 to I-95 and its gonna take about 7 hours:banghead:. Oh well it'll be worth it. I'm just glad I'm able to bring the ski with me.

So what's the plan guys? I like the looks of 75 to 40, it goes right into where we want to go. and yo know 75 is usually like 80mph. not that I will go that fast. only question is, is how fast 40 will be. I like my odds better on that than I-4. 9am departure?

[i met a superjet]

Pulling out of the driveway at 9am!

[FLY6584]

Yeah Tom I definitely would do over 80. My dad did 90 towing my ski back from Ft. Lauderdale and blew out the hub and almost lost the tire.:bigeyes: :banghead: Those hubs just cant handle speeds like that. Be sure to pack your bearings with grease before ya leave.:biggthumpup:

tom, I"m going i-75 to 40. I'll call you RIGHT NOW!

[tom21]

I would do 90 if the trailer was made by Chevy:Banane01:

[primetime1267]

I always keep it around 75 and things work out just fine... Anything faster, you'll be asking for trouble....

Pulling out at 7AM, and BrianHorn is following also.

[WaveDemon]

I"m packed and ready to go. I think we might leave earlier than 9 am.

[WaveDemon]

out the door now!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Bandhogger]

Head out now
