I was supposed to be leaving Thurs afternoon after my buddy got out of work.  Now he can't make it so I'll be going alone.  A convoy may be a good idea considering...  I'll be leaving from just north of Worcester MA, picking up the pike and trying to avoid NYC.  I'll try to leave early and maybe we can meet up somewhere our paths may cross and cruise in together.  I have NO problem taking the scenic route, I'm in no hurry and will be bringing a camera.
Yes I own a 1972 Dodge Challenger Convertible T/A S/E with a 440 Six Pak. Can it get any more wrong?

I'll be leaving Barrie, Ontario at about 4AM crossing the border around Buffalo I'd guess about 6-6:30 AM?

I'm leaving on the 4th around 4:30AM.  Have a safe trip everyone!  Remember those tractor trailer drivers are a bit nuts in PA.LOL

Ya,let me know what route you are taking and maybe we can meet up.My route is not at all planned yet so I am open to any ideas you might have.I figure leaving at 3-4 am should get us to Carlisle by 3-4pm taking a few secondary roads.

I'm technically West....  ...about 3 hours.  :)  You come in on the TP through Pittsburgh?  I hadn't really planned on a specific departure time.  I do want to hit up a store in Mechanicsburg before dinner time though.

Made the decision to go I 84 - I 81,more hills but better scenery and avoids NY.Planned departure is 3 AM Thursday.

It doesnt really help since I am fairly local but I'm heading out of Baltimore around 7:00am or so. I am going 83 north, to 581, to 81 and I get off the exit where Walmart and Sleep Inn are.

Its about an hour and a half for me.

If you're taking any of these roads at that time, PM me and I'll give you my number in case you have trouble. I'll have tools and a set of rallye Wheels in the back of my truck.

torredcuda, I can't guarantee when I'll leave.  I'm cutting it close to the wire with my car and it may not be ready to make the trip.  I'll be going anyway, just maybe not in the FrankenChallenger
