My Road Trip to STL

m4a1mustang · 09-12-2010, 09:51 PM

STL heading eastbound on I-64.

Illinois...

Lousiville...

At about 9PM EST I was just crossing into West Virginia. If I tried to go all the way through I'd get home a little after 3AM, so I decided to stop and get a hotel at the next populated area. I ended up getting a room in Barboursville, WV, just outside of Huntington, which let me rest up and get a nice sleep.

I was up and back on the road by 6AM.

Back in VA

First rest stop of the morning at the first rest area in VA.

1000 miles!

Home at last!

All told I drove 1,800 miles. On the way out I saw no 370Zs and no 5.0s. On the way home I saw 2 370Zs and one 5.0. One of the 370s I saw was the Yellow Coupe that tows that G-Force racing trailer to his track days. He was headed westbound through Illinois or Indiana... can't remember exactly. Let's just say a 370 towing a trailer looks pretty ******* badass!

Weird...was it this one by chance? I went to the SSCA Nationals Auto-x event in Lincoln Nebraska last Thursday and actually ended up parking next to him and talking.

That's Al. Congrats on your Mustang, glad you like it. I had a 99 that was called something like dark green satin metallic or something. very rare color, but I love how ford has so many color choices.
