Just him, wife had to stay home and watch the kids. Yes it is, the year I went I went straight home and came through St. Louis and he spent the night and I kept on truckin 17 hrs later finally home... I'm sure Dave left early morning. Like 6-7am. It's kind of hard to make up time too, you google the location and say oh I can get there faster than that, but google doesnt factor in gas fill up stops. So by the time you gas up using the bathroom get something to eat, the actual time to get there is pretty accurate.
I know John went last year and he thought he could just speed his way down there, in fact he/I found out that the cruise control only works up to 99mph lol, but anyways it took him longer than he thought and ended up sleeping in his car to get some rest.
Also the Zdayz cruise is pretty tolling on the base Z owners as we are all owned by not having cruise control. Damn was my foot and ankle sore when I finally made it home.

An FR-S tried to race and show off to me today 
(I wanted to race him on foot 40-50 yard dash and see if he'll show off anymore)
A chevy V8 truck tried to speed on curvy corner up a ramp onto hwy 36 tailgating me
(Could of brake check him, lol)
A F-150 was revving his big exhaust when he saw me behind him, than cuts off a van in front of him than cuts off a volks wagon only to come to a complete stop because there was 4-5 cars in front of him. I was cracking up so badly, I thought I was crying

I think some truck tried to race me yesterday when I was headed to the chiro. He pulled ahead and got on it, but then realized I wasn't interested.
That's not a TT, Scott. And wow, the e-brake needs adjusting.

now that would be a nice project
Well since we had such a beautiful day today and I had the opportunity to test out a Porter cable buffer I decided to put it to the test today. Not that my paint was real bad to start with but wow does this thing put a shine on. Guess Im gonna have to pick one up now since it cuts down on time and puts out results I can't get with elbow grease.
Forgive my shitty camera skills.
