if you fly you will get there quickly and not want to immediately sleep a long time/run around/go crazy/etc, thus saving you many extra hours for immediate gambool. also yea, unless all of you win, the last thing you're gonna want to do is drive back to florida in the same car [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Road Trips rule. It is not so much where you go but the fun you have getting there.

I took a road trip from Ohio To New Orleans a few years back and we broke down along near Nashville. We ended up spending an entire day at a 76 gas station - something i would not have done by choice but we had a blast doing it as only you can on a road trip. Gas station + alcohol + scary locals + stupid dares = trouble and great day.

We only ended up getting 36 hours in New Orleans but it was a trip i will never forget and one we all still talk about.

Drive and enjoy the ride.

I've never done this, and this might end up being just a boring waste of time that didn't live up to my expectations at all, but man, I want to do exactly this one day. Do this for me, and no matter what it's actually like, tell me it was awesome.

if you drive 90 mph and don't stop, just fly - what's the point, really

road trip >>>> flying, if you have the time for it, though the drive back sucks

hahahah.....



seriously though, for people saying traffic is going to be a bitch etc, if he plans his timing down so he is in the middle of corn fields during the rush hour times, it wont be too bad. Personally thats too long on the road for me, Id never drive it. Plan on getting pulled over at least a few times though if you guys really think you are going 120.

As a professional race car driver you get a lot of experience with poorly maintained, uncontrolled roads filled with people going half your speed?

FWIW I'd do the road trip, but I never fly unless it's the only way, I like driving.

Youd also think a pro race car driver would want to be the first to fly.
