1500 miles in 16 hours.

I woke up yesterday morning at 4:45. I jumped in my Porsche and drove it 720 miles to my house in North Carolina. Procon picked me up, dropped me at the airport and I flew back to Florida. My brother picked me up and drove me back home by 10PM.

The Porsche got 34 MPG and I only stopped for gas once. It never missed abeat all the way up and ran flawlessly for 10 hours straight. I cruised between 70 and 90 the whole way.

I am ready and poised for some Dragons tail action next week when I will be up there for 9 days.

Thank you to Procon for driving me to the airport. I felt bad asking you. Your a great guy. I wish we had more time to sit and have a beer or two before I left. See you next week. I am doing everything I can to bring up those steaks I told you about.

I only saw one other P-car on the trip. It was a water pumper targa in Sylva NC when I rolled into town.

I saw over 50 corvettes too.
