[QUOTE="russ010, post: 96989, member: 677"] I make a lot of 5-6 hour drives back from SC to GA when I have military... I usually wake up at 430am, work til 4:30pm, drive an hour to my parents, eat and then get on the road... generally around 8pm. I will take one of those 5 Hour Energy Drinks (try one before you get on the road... never know how you will react). I only drank half of one and it woke me up big time - my first time drinking it. I also carry a cold, wet wash cloth in a zip lock back to rub my face and neck with when I start feeling the tiredness come on. If I were you, I would really try to get atleast 5-6 hours of good sleep before hitting the road. If you would wait and leave that morning around 3-4am, you'll be able to last through the day a lot better. If you do get tired while driving, pull over on the side of the road right then... don't wait until it's too late thinking you can make it. I've drifted off a time or two and woke up going 60mph down the center median, so don't put your life or anyone else's life in danger... the fish will still be there no matter when you get there!
