A coat of Adam's quick sealant on the front end and the bugs just fall off with a spray of water. Your most likely going to wash the car once you get there anyway.

That's not a bad idea. Could look kind of cool on the way down then a quick peel off and you're good.

A dilemma since the car was invented.

I simply have a small assortment of cleaning supplies in the cargo net in the trunk. Take a detailed and a micro and good to go. Same supplies I use for the car shows.

Short of not driving it at all (particularly at night) it bugs and driving just go hand in hand.

Bring it there in an enclosed trailer. That way when you get there you're ready to roll. It'll be spotless!

Make sure you have no loose pieces. They will flap like crazy and wear away the paint.

if you have a clear bra, put a fresh coat of polish on it and spray them off at the carwash. There's one right down the road from the host hotel.
