Are you flying into Baltimore-Washington Airport? Richmond shouldn't be more than two hours in good traffic, if I remember correctly.

Of course, I've never done it after a fifteen hour day of flying.

I'll never complain about our three hour ride to Portland again. Thanks for the wishes of luck. We try to minimize its importance, but having it on our side is never a bad thing.



Thanks! We've had a lot of time to run this robot into the ground and iron out any bugs, so it's become quite reliable. We're excited to see how it will stack up against the competition, but we're confident that we're in for a good season.
Thanks for the headsup in Virginia. We were told that it was 3 hours to drive.
We actually drive from Seattle to Portland every year the past 5 years for an electric vehicle competition in late May early June. I did it in a record time 1 hour 47 minutes from Safeco field onramp to vancouver, WA one year because it was late after a baseball game with no traffic.....going fast.
