not really sure to be honest... what i do know is that my dad (peter) and i (jay) will be taking his newly restored (thank you defont's autobody) 1973 BMW 3.0 CS across country from manhattan (which is in new york city for you geographically challenged) across country to the finish line in las vegas, nevada - the home of all that is pure. after a celebratory dinner in vegas, the 400 drivers and 400 navigators (i am the trusty navigator on this journey) will then whisk their way across the god-forsaken southwest desert to las angeles, california for a swanky celebration at the biltmore millenium hotel. so, if i wind up making it to LA, i've got to scrounge up a tux i guess...
the 400 entrants start from four different cities, NY NY, washington DC, atlanta and miami (remind me again dad why we didn't start in miami?!?!) and race against the clock to LA from july 29 to august 4.
the idea of the blog is to update it as we go as i'm bringing every known electronic convenience with me (laptop, blackberry, GPS, ipod, etc.) in order to keep the tens of fans across the country updated on our progress.
that's it for now - here's an artist's rendering of what the car looks like - we'll snap some pretty photos of the actual bavarian coach as we get closer to the event.
