DetailFest Longest Distance Award!

**rwright** · 03-17-2011, 01:28 PM

According to Google, my trip will be 970 miles since I'm leaving from work instead of home. I will be driving down, not flying. I agree with 2 categories -

1) Longest Drive
2) Longest Flight

Thanks Mike! Thankfully I'm flying to West Palm, renting a car and driving up to Stuart. But I am coming from a good distance! Looking forward to meeting yourself and everyone else on the AG team!
