    we are coming from the notorious a.t.x. I am looking at setting a new land speed record getting there.
     
  8. My drive is about 1 7/10 miles....from beautiful, suburban Duquesne, MO.

    But, it's a long 1 7/10 -- the ol Plymouth is pretty slow.

    Sometimes I have to stop for a train at the crossing.....takes even
    longer then. :eek:

    Just to be safe, I'll toss in a couple extra ice cubes in the ol beer cooler.:D

    Are you gonna take the old girl down the track this year? Unfortunately my '48 is out of commission and my '34 is not on the road yet.

    Oh yeah I almost forgot to answer the question. About 15 miles from MoKan.
