I would be too tempted to speed. Not worth the headache and aggravation of getting pulled over. MFest for me is one of those things that I would never get to experience until I relocate to that part of the country (if ever).

After some research and evaluation, as well as common sense. I don't think it will be as enjoyable as I thought it will be. I drove to FL back and forth numerous times. Its a fun ride but it's truly draining going straight through.
Ideally I would drive 6hrs a day, stop at some nice landmarks, eat, sleep, relax, etc. But, unfortunately I cannot be away from work that long. Maybe one day I'll be closer. Flying doesn't sound to bad, but I would want my car there. Shipping the car over sounds too serious for me. I'm open to anyone who would like to change my mind lol. |
