the weather is nice right now, its just a little cold.

your s2000 should be ok out in the open, do you have any mods or are you stock?

roads suck all over the place, it varries. youl probably be on 95 south most of the time, so its not to bad.

i drove from PA to florida in my S. I was fine. I had a friend come down from toronto. We left my house and got to orlando in about 13hrs. Its not a bad drive, could be boring at times. Its basically 95 south all the way down.

One suggestion for staying awake, eat snacks and random stuff often. It will keep you energized and awake. Also, if you get sleepy, pull over and go wash your face or take a 15-20 min nap. You will be amazed at how well it works. I have done countless road trips in my S, most being 8+ hrs.
