HAMB drags...Where are you driving from?

Just thought it would be cool to see the variety of places people drive from to get to the greatest drag race event(in my opinion) in the country. I'll even throw in a 6-pack of Stewart's Root Beer to the fellow or lady that drives the farthest in their hotrod or daily. Only catch is you have to come and get it at the drags as I will be keeping it cold for you. Just look for the organgrinder's car and I'll be in the same spot.

I'll check the thread on Wed. before the drags and the winner will be chosen and posted on that day. So post where you're driving from, the mileage and if it's in your hotrod post a picture of that.

I'll start by saying I'm driving from Colorado Springs, CO, 664 miles one way according to google maps. Sedan sadly comes on a trailer but, hey it's hard to fit a family of 5 in a chop top '29 Model A sedan and the luggage.

 

I've just got a short 4 hour drive from where I live in KS.

 

Short one for me too Wichita Kansas man I can't wait

 

Yep, I'm stoked!

 

I'm out. Only 80.7 miles from my house.

 

I'm in DFW. I'm gonna guess Flamedabone from South Carolina or Zman from NC? or perhaps the west coast contingency.

 

Livonia, MI........ 826 miles one way.

 

About 180 miles one way.

Hopefully I can drive the '63 and not the daily beater this year!

 

I'll give an Alliance Auction tee shirt to the longest hauler too.

 

Poncho Billy drives a pretty good stretch from New York.

 

Looking good. Get in touch with those that you know travel some good distance and have them post it.

Blacktopbuddha thanks for the addition of a T-shirt

Tennessee, via Bonneville.
Big circle.

 

If driving in circles gets a win, maybe someone could just keep circling the block until they win!

 

Tennessee! That's where I was born and raised. On the hillbilly side in the Smokeys Mtns

 

Only 538 miles from Mississippi for me and Mr and Mrs Kracker (Kracker 36). We're hitting the swap meet 80 miles east of Joplin on Friday enroute to the Friday evening throwdown. Can't wait.

Yeah, but are you racing your driver, too?
4.5 hours one way for me, but then I'm racing it too.

I am driving from just north of kansas city. Im not too far from I29 or the western I435 loop if any is in need of help or a pit stop pn the way down.

 

Well so far 10 people are driving. I guess it's not as interesting as I thought.

 

Dallas, Texas

 

Western Pa. 966 miles per MapQuest, via 1970 Chevelle, 'new old car'. Might back road it a bit which will add miles of course. Will back out if too hot, no AC per black car/interior.

 

that will be Bob K if he makes it from Alaska to the HAMB drags...

 

Only 190 miles headed west ,including a stop at Springfield
( big swap meet !!!! ) see ya !!!!!

 

So far the General is in the lead. Yeah Bob K will have like 4000+ miles on the odometer by the time he pulls into Joplin. But it needs to be posted here to be considered.

 

Less than 2 weeks away. I'm driving my 29 AV8 tudor.

 

9 days and counting.
