It's about time to start thinking about how to go to NSXPO, from parts east of Dallas. I'll offer this suggestion for those beginning their journey in, or passing through, Atlanta.
The logical route is due west on I-20, it's a straight shot to Dallas, about 750 miles. It would not be a difficult drive to handle that in a single day: a 7am (est) departure would yield an arrival around 830pm (cst), about 15.5 hrs later. This suggested drive could take place on Tues 11/5, getting registered that evening, ready for NSXPO activities beginning Wed, 11/6.
For those drivers beginning NE of Atlanta who would use I-85 on their first leg, you could join us Mon nite in Atl, and we could depart as a group Tues, heading west. If you are west of Atl (B'ham, Jackson, Shreveport, etc), you could time your departure to join the group as we pass through your vicinity on I-20.
For our esteemed Fla colleagues
, you may be heading west on I-10, and, at some point, it is logical to flow to the I-20 corridor to eventually reach Dallas. It also seems that you may have more ground to cover than one day will allow. So, if you went as far as Jackson, MS, on Monday, and stopped for the night, then we could all rendezvous on I-20 Tues, for the final 375 mies to Dallas. If this whole concept works, we would probably be passing through Jackson around 1-2pm (cst) Tues, and then subsequently arriving in Dallas around 8-9pm.
So that's one proposal to get the ball rolling. Please add your comments and let's develop this great annual event.
