Joseph Taverna (left) of Quebec, Canada, and Tim Flanary of Mount Airy, Md., plan their route Thursday from the National Corvette Museum to Clarksville, Tenn., during the Chevrolet Fireball Run.
There are two main reasons why NASCAR star Geoff Bodine is driving across the country on a scavenger hunt: 4-year-old Trust Everitt and 9-year-old Journey Everitt. The siblings have been missing for nearly a year, and Bodine hopes they are soon found. The mission brought him and teams of other people, including an astronaut and an actor, to Bowling Green on Thursday during the 2011 Chevrolet Fireball Run Adventurally. Teams of people have been driving around the country since Saturday, stopping in different cities where they receive assignments and directions to their next location. By this Saturday, they will have traveled 2,500 miles and stopped in 15 cities, including Bowling Green and Scottsville.
