[Mike J]

Anyone know a were to find a schedule of events for Ocala weekend ? I've looked but can't seem to find anything.

Did you try the NTBA web site. They have all the events listed there.

Yes I did, but didn't see anything. I might go because I've sorta lost motivation on my build. I'm at a point that I could go in nine different directions. I think I read that you will not be there, is that correct ?

Will the trip to Daytona be on Interstate highways?

 

[lincolnuT]

Mark in 2014 we did about 400 miles at this run and not one mile of it was on an interstate highway.....

FYI - There is no interstate highway between Ocala and Daytona, just country roads and highways, mostly 2-lane. Depending on the route, some nice scenery along the way.

Meangreen - Thanks! We are looking forward to the cruise if we can get some spark into my engine!!!

How cool is this: the guy in the photo attended the NTBA regional event in Ocala, coming from Puerto Rico! And to boot, he shipped his T-bucket over so he would be able to have something to drive on the cruises!!! Here he is with his son standing behind his red T-bucket in front of the Don Garlits museum . . .

Those were a truly great father and son team. I really enjoyed talking with them. I might also add that it was a very well planed weekend thanks to Dewey and Bob for all their hard work.
