NSXPO 2022

 Every year the NSX Club of America has a national get together know as NSXPO and in 2022 it was in Phoenix AZ. Instead of just a long drive it turned into a 15 day, 6,000 mile epic road trip.

The night before I left Michigan, the last time the car was clean for a couple of weeks.
The trunk is fully packed, not my first trip so I have it down to a science. Since I was driving alone the passenger seat was also filled.
Actually, not driving completely alone, my faithful co-pilot Gumby hangs out on the antenna and waves at everyone going by. Now that I look at this photo, he needs a bath.

I started in Michigan and went south through Ohio, Kentucky, Tennessee and met up with a bunch of friends in North Carolina for the Classic Hondas on the Dragon meet. Unfortunately for me my main relay died in the parking lot at Deal's Gap and I missed the meet and road across the dragon on a flat-bed truck. However the NSX group are some of the most wonderful people and John L in a white NSX chased the truck down and replaced the relay while the car was on the truck.

Once the car was fixed I headed west on 40 and met up with Jason, a friend from the east coast who I drove with most of the way to Phoenix.

Crossing the Mississippi at Memphis into Arkansas. Most of the first couple days was driving with only a few photos out the windows.

Next up was Oklahoma.

Then Texas.

Near Amarillo TX we stopped for gas and ran into Richard and Liz also on their way to Phoenix. After a short chat they headed for the nearby Cadillac Ranch to film a video for their website, https://www.lapoftheworld.com/.


We got off 40 at Adrian TX to visit the route 66 mid-point between Chicago and LA.
