I was VERY tempted to drive across Saturday night after work, but I found out I've got a 40th to go to on the Monday. Also the thought of a 7 hour drive after a 9 hour stint at work doesn't excite me much :S

Yes, it certainly would be minature, it'd be hard to top the 1200ish entries of last year's.

Then again the main reason why many of us (mexicans) aren't going is because our cars aren't drivable or "ready". In my case a little from column a, a little from column b...

Haha, I've had the Sprint since I was an 18 year old Learner Driver ;) *then* is probably when it should've been a pretty garden feature, haha.
