Soap AZ and I drove 8 hours once. It sucked, but we stayed at Chu's house which was tight.

EDIT: Flames of Bowser was pretty far too, but it was only like 6 or so right?

yea I guess that counts for longest drive.
Then...California from DC is my longest distance.

Anyways, I'm moving this thread to MD.

941 miles from Wilmington, NC to FC 6 and Diamond. But that was in planes. It took like 12 hours to get from FC to Memphis by Greyhound. Longest driving distance in a car would probably be from Memphis to Columbus (around 6-7 hours) for G4S 2, 3, and 4.

Santa Cruz, CA to Mount Airy, MD;

About 2420 mi as the crow flies.

Though I think driving to Seattle was a longer trip, at a 14 hour drive.

10.5 hours to indiana for FC-D. but here's the kicker: i made that drive by myself with no one else in the car and no sleep time in the midst of it. i think i've got most everyone beat since people tend to fly/split driving for long trips like that

Orlando FL to Pound 2 in Maryland. I forgot the name of the city though. My crew and I went by plane and stayed there for a while.
