    Thanks, I did the 138 thing once for a short jaunt just to get the number on there. :-)

    Knock on wood I keep pretty peeled and choose my areas for getting my laps back pretty carefully.
    Leaving at 5AM both ways makes for the lightest traffic for the trip. Getting into Atlanta near lunch hour is a trip and I have to try and relax the rest of the way in.
    I have been making the run a minimum 4 times a year since 1993 and always enjoy it.

    As you are a repeat offender at least 4 times a year, I should also mention that Fla. Troopers are also heavy users of VASCAR from Airplanes. None of your countermeasures can defend against that, unless you have surface-to-air missiles.

    Thanks, and I have seen them. Got lucky once and caught the reflection of a white over-wing plane doing a u-turn and got suspicious.
    A little further I seen a stripe on the road, then the pack of cruisers backed up in the grass to a no-ramp overpass waiting to pounce.
    My luck was seeing the reflection and they were working the north bound.

    I came to a section with a little high ground with a long distance view and licked my chops for getting a long 100+ run in and seen the glint.
    I was in the truck in my signature.
