Current Goal

This car is in a (point) race between Team Up North, a blue Honda (TBH03E) and a black Fire Bird (TBGYM4) and Team Gadabout a white Toyota (TBGTVH) and a red Honda (TBGTKV). The idea is... travel from Macomb County Michigan to Lone Pine, California and back, earning points or losing points along the way. If you grab this bug you become the driver and you must do your best to earn as many points as possible. This is a car not an airplane, that means ground travel ONLY. It has a range of 200 miles, that means no one driver can move it more than 200 miles without dropping it in a geocache.

Good idea for a race. I can get it to lone pine but I may or may not take it there because of the points system
