Airtran is having a sale until friday. $64 dollar flights to chicago from ATL. That's each way-- but still way cheaper than driving!
Also it's cheap to baltimore, too-- if you aren't bringing your car you could fly to the civil war! then again, who isn't bringing theirs?;)
Atlanta - Baltimore $59
Atlanta - Chicago (Midway) $64
Atlanta - Ft. Lauderdale $49
Atlanta - Grand Bahama Island $64
Atlanta - Gulfport/Biloxi $49
Atlanta - Jacksonville $49
Atlanta - Las Vegas $99
ooh bahamas anyone? I think I might buy tickets for SEMA, too.

I think I'm down to hit this one up. Chicago's about 12-13 hours, I beleive. I haven't been up that way in years... it'd be a good trip.
Chi-towne drift, yo.
All the way past Wrigley Feild.
Werd.

Well, I really wanted to participate in this event...
Unfortunately Ocala has been rescheduled for the same weekend.
More seat time & a closer drive rule Chicago out.

You will probably see more pro-driving in Chicago. I know a coupla pro drivers who are going up there. It will also lean on the short side compared to ocala. Ocala will be more grassroots stylee... and allll day into the night!
I really wanted to do both... but I'd disrupt the space-time continuum trying to make it to Chicago overnight after Ocala.
Unless of course, I hit 88 mph...

Well, that hurricane Jeanne isn't going to hit Illinois, so I'm there.
Chicago or fuggin' bust, yo.
I talked to RS*R, and they said if I was driving up from Atlanta, they'd make sure I had a spot to participate... so I'm there.
It's a long way there, and a long way back... but that's what it's all about.

i didnt' get to make the trip, they called me at like 4:45 wanting me to be in College Station, Texas at 6, mind you college station is about 3 hours from where i live

so i'm stuck in hell for the weekend. but hopefully they'll let me tag along on the next event they go to, just hope i get a little more of a heads before hand

I'm sorry you didn't get to make it out... it woulda been rad to meet you!
We'll link up at an event soon, though.
Are you going to the DGTrials Civil War?
