ZR-1 Trip: Maryland to Texas

[QB93Z]

I will be driving from Westminster Maryland to New Braufels, Texas this week for the South Texas ZR-1 BBQ Weekend this coming weekend.

Thanks to Glenn and Corey for hosting this event.

David (ZZZZR1) will be my co-pilot. We plan to leave Maryland on Wednesday evening or early Thursday morning. Our route will be south on I-81 to Knoxville, then I-40 west through Nashville and Memphis to Little Rock. On Friday morning we will head south on I-30 to Dallas, then I-35 to New Braunfels.

We are taking the 1994 Yellow ZR-1 that has over 97,000 miles on it so we may hit the 100,000 miles mark on the way back.

Any one along the route that wants to meet up with us and pace us for a while would be appreciated, (or maybe we could meet for lunch or a beverage).

Question: I heard a comment on XM radio about a closure of part if the interstate system in the NC/Tennessee area due to a rock slide. Does anyone locally know if that will affect our route?
