Let's get something started here.

Who's coming and let's wager who will be the first to arrive. I can tell you right now that last year's "First in the Door" winner WILL NOT repeat this year.

Who will it be...

Jay Guard, Bobby Robinson, and da Cheater will arrive on Tuesday!

Leaving Anniston, AL, at 7 AM. Maquest says a bit over nine hours. With stops, maybe eleven hours.

Late afternoon Tuesday, if we're lucky.

Who's gonna beat us? LOL...

You know, Jim, it ain't how you race at the R4, it's just being at the event and the memories you carry away... IMO, of course.
