6am! I was thinking more along the lines of 9:00 or 9:30. Its not that long of a drive. Plus, who is going to be out messing around any earlier then 11:30am. I think getting there at noon would be perfect. Then again, I hate getting up early.LOL Also, what way u taking there?

We'll most likely be taking I-39 to Hwy 23 west. Its the fastest and easiest route from Wausau.

Well, Look for a lowered NBM Z28 w/ ground effects, w/ tinted side windows, and no tint on the back window. Will be w/ a lowered black 96' Chevy ext. cab SLAMMED, and lowered 95 Chevy ext. cab, and maybe buddies white Lightning. Here is a pic of the group from last year. Some things changed, but not much.

Well bud you know I would be there if I wasen't in New York right now. And then next weekend will be the All-Star Race in North Carolina and I think I would rather be there anyways. It will be the only highlight of this whole family tip I think. So far it has sucked ***. I need to get drunk when I get back and I really need to drive my car again. but not at the same time right
