When I mapped my route from NC a year ago, my mapping program had me going through Tenn, up through Kentucky, Illinois, into Missouri at East St. Louis, out at Joplin and down into Ok. Didn't seem right to me so going home I went through the tip of Missouri at Seneca, across Arkansas, Tennessee and to my home near the Tenn/NC line. It seemed like a much more direct route but took exactly the same time - same mileage. Weird how some of those trips lay out.
Changing the subject, I keep hearing "stuff" from some guys about Oklahoma that is apparently coming from the .com site. I don't use it but wish we could get some updates here. Someone recently said there was something like 80 bikes said they'd be there
. Perhaps anyone using both sites could update this site (David?) with some of that info? I'm too damn lazy to use both sites

Never figured far east Oklahoma to be such a great destination choice. What do I know 
My money by the way for longest burnout would have been Gary. 
. I also remember with a slightly modified 502 on Big Red (Demon carb and ignition enhancements), it turned out to be a pretty violent experience one night! 
I`ve been giving it a bunch of abuse so I figured..."I know"... second gear burn outs??" Since I`m going to pull it and do the 08 upgrade and the new sun gear before the Oklahoma trip. It will be interesting to see what it looks like.
