Hey Chuck, if you leave by 10am Friday you can get home before midnight, get some sleep & be at the auction on Saturday. I've left several times before noon Friday & got home on Saturday before the sun went down & did all the driving. Dave Bowman has drove it in about 28hrs pulling a BIG trailer & he lives South of LA.
