It was a little over 1900 miles by air last time. I'm taking a different route this time. Thank goodness I don't have to drive it.

Geesh, did you win a DT hat for that? The longest in miles? (although I think Ed and Steve won the longest drive )

Sorry you can't make it this time.

Pdrift had a 10 hour drive each way (I think he said Minnesota). So we should have had a prize for longest drive.

No, I didn't win a hat. I already had a hat. And I have been wearing that hat ever since for luck and refuse to take it off until Sumwon wins.

Un,

It was great to meet you and keep that hat on! The results of the draw should be out soon (anyone know when?)

I don't know and it's killing me.

I think I need to negotiate an agreement with my employer that they won't expect me to function at work when Sumwon is entered in a race.

I'm debating making the ride in from Pittsburgh. Would probably stay overnight and head right into the office Monday. If I decide to I will leave my contact info.

By the time you fill your tank 6 times, you could probably afford a plane ticket from Little Rock to SDF.

No way I'm going to try and talk you out of it, 'Zig, you gotta do it and be here!

I drive 14 hours out to WY or NM all the time, piece of cake! Just get a friend to come with.

I have lucky underwear. Lucky underwear, good.

I just don't want to know that someone has worn their lucky underwear since Sumwon's last race!

Hat? Lucky hat - good!
