My road trip from Ohio to RI


Intlcutlass

Recommended Posts

So I leave this Friday past to run to RI to drop off my Getrag, and pick up a TGP tranny....

 

10 hrs there and 10 hrs back :alcoholic:

Left Friday at midnight, got there around 10:30 left for home at about 12:30...ran into some delays... bad wreck on a bridge in the NJ area, and also had some rain... then my car started missing.

 

In case your wondering ... thats a full 20 hrs of driving on only about 4 hours of sleep :boring:

 

Met with Nokicker, and also with Gutlassupreme, and it made me realize how old I am.... I felt like a Grandpa my comparison!!!

 

This was my first road trip in the Cutlass, and it did well for a car with 163K miles on it!!! except for some missing on the way home.... I gotta figure that one out :think: That had me worried for a while....

 

Gutlass , you parents are TOO funny, and very nice people.... It's unfortunate we didn't get to meet... you car looks KICK ASS.

 

Nokicker took me for a ride in his STE turbo.... I was damned impressed, AND he had a sweet lookin T/A in the garage....

 

I also saw on the way home , THE BEST WAY TO LOWER THE REAR OF A CUTLASS... pics to follow....

Greg is a cool guy.

 

That TSTE of his is bad ass, especially when it decides to slice four spark plug wires on its own :)

 

Havent seen his TA yet.

 

10 hours man? jesus. took us 12-13 from mid-mass. stupid females and having to stop every hour to goto the bathroom :bash: also, we went through the middle of the day, so it was a bit slower (if it was night, coulda went a little faster :))

 

And you went through jersey????

 

I went on I-80 to get to norwalk, and clevelands north of that, I would taken 90 to at least mass, then depending on where your going from there........

Hey I'm not that young... :oops: Hope you made it to the beach. Let's see some pics of your trip. :)

No but I am :lol:

 

lol it is a shame though we didn't meet... I've had to do two funerals the past two Satuday mornings :( (my own grandma the week before and my girlfriend's this past week) so my weekends have been pretty shot lately.

 

you car looks KICK ASS.

 

Thanks, I'll take whatever compliments I can get :lol: car's covered in pollen, some areas of dried wax that I missed buffing out back when I got it, paint missing off both sides of the rear bumper, overspray everywhere, no driver's seat or center console, 1/4 of the carpet is razor-bladed out, a tail light's been out for months :lol:
