      That didn't work that good for me - the free breakfast stuff was cold by the time we stopped to eat.

              Ron, everybody should go to at least one. I think the last one I went to was in 2007. I'll probably go to the one at Gateway since my hotel is close by, but that's it. I've seen what Boob calls a "leisurely pace". Better leave early if you want to get to the venue before his '56.

                None. Don't see the value in waiting around for the traffic jam.

                    MIKEE - is this based on local traffic patterns OR the cluster typically associated with the first day?

                          Cleveland was a mess on the 1st day after the driver's meeting! It took us over 3 hours just to get out of the local neighborhood far enough to get on a freeway. No driver's meeting for us.

                              Generally I dont.......I use the extra time to eat breakfast or start out early to get to the venue in smaller towns I stop by the hotel first to check in and to make I dont get the overbooked excuse when going to venue first and checking into hotel later........but if hotel is a ways from the venue I wait until later......but in general I dont do driver meetings and the last I did was the one in Cape Canaveral last year on Power Tour.......
                              That steely eyed look I had behind the wheel was me trying see..........
