Current Goal

This 1987 Buick Grand National is in a race against other travel bugs.

Objective: Be the first bug to reach 100 points and return “home”.

Rules for the race are as follows.
1. Travel Bug owners can’t move any bugs in the race.
2. Each Travel Bug must be logged into a cache and out of that same cache by a different cacher.
3. Each cacher can only move each bug 1 time in the race.
4. After a bug reaches 100 points it must return to within 25 miles of zip code 37814 and be picked up by the owner to be declared the WINNER!

Point System...
2 points for each “different” cache the bug gets logged into. (All rules above must be met)
5 points per cache for pictures of the bug posted to the “bug page”. (So PLEASE post those pictures)

About This Item

1987 Buick Grand National TB

This travel bug is a 1987 Buick Grand National. My favorite car. There's just something about the lines, the bad black paint job, the general looks of the car that I like. And not to mention the POWER! Yes, it's only a V6, but with that turbo it's a rocket! In 1987 it was the fastest production car made!!! With very few modifications, this car can run 11 second quarter mile times with no problems and still be very streetable. All that power with enough leg room for 5 FULL size adults with plenty of trunk room, what more could you ask for?

Found while hiking on the Bruce Trail in Ontario, Canada. According to one of the logs a couple before this, the bug should now be above 90 points so it's about time to head home! I'm heading to upstate New York in a couple weeks so I will hold on to it until then.

Please check my figures. I counted 27 individual caches for 54 points, 7 of them have pics for another 35 points, bringing the car to 89 points before I picked it up. Add another 5 points for the pic I'm uploading, and it should be sitting at 94 right now.

Will try to get the car heading back to TN shortly.

Have any of its competitors finished the race yet?
