WOW - I hope there was a something at the end of the rainbow you were chasing. That's covering some ground now.
It would have to be Me or my Best Friend in High School ...
Friday, after shcool, we would drive from St. Louis to Chicago, play Pool for at least 36 hours straight, then drive back to St. Louis and (somehow) make it through all our classes on Monday.
I'm talkin' late 1950's, driving my 1949 Ford Business Coupe' ... Chopped, Channeled, Frenched, Flathead Merc V8 with 3-2's, 3-spd w/overdrive, and Columbia 2-spd axle.
Man, we were "flyin' low" on those banzai runs to Chi-town and back and only spun-out once (on black ice). That scared the livin' s**t outta me.

Not to toot my own horn or anything but I am a great road driver!!:thumbup:
You go on the road with Big Matt enough and you will learn to drive. After playing for 16 hours straight I drove a 5 hour trip home while he slept the ENTIRE way. No one to talk to but the wife on the phone listening to her about me staying out all night and the next day.
Big Matt is the only guy I know who will bet 20K and nearly be asleep before they flip for the break...no lie!!
Another time I played a guy from West Virgina for 13 hours and when Big Daddy woke up there was a pile of money on his chest...didn't win anything because we were down about 2500 when he went to sleep. I won 5 straight sets for 500 a set. The guy quit when I got even and I drove 4 hours back home. Again he slept the ENTIRE time. lol:grin:
