I can't find any good spots/stores/etc near the 152 and 5 junction for you guys to meet up at. If anyone can look and see if they have any luck with finding a spot, it would help out.

Mike mentioned a Shell gas station that is down Hwy 152 a bit (about 10 to 15 minutes). So you guys coming down 5 would have to take a little detour, meet up then all head back onto 5. That's the only spot so far. It would be nice to have a place right off the freeway. The junction itself, IIRC, isn't a good spot to pull over on the side of the road.

I'll keep trying

^^You suck.

19-20 hours one way, 1300 miles. We'll drive from Austin to El Paso on Wed., spend the night, and head out to Cali. Should be around 6 hours to EP a long stretch of I-10 is 80MPH so we can haul azz. Then from EP to Cali is around 11-12 hours.

I'm on my own on the way home and I might try to drive straight through. I'm going to the dyno day at Church's and will leave whenever I feel it's the right time. More than likely I'll stop somewhere in the middle of the night and catch a few zzz's. Wish I had more time, I'd divert through Vegas on the way home.

If CA had 80mph speed limits I'd love it so much more then lame 65mph BS. People would be going 90-100mph without a problem though haha
