Red,
Yeah, if we hit all the major highways and what not, an hour and a half is what it will take from Tipp City/Dayton to C-bus. But we are taking State Routes, not highways, and we are heading north on SR 68 to Urbana, which is about 20 mins out of our way, then taking SR's east, which will slow us up probably by another 30 mins, and then that puts us in NW C-bus. I am just taking into account the stoplights, the traffic...slower roads....and my estimation was a tad conservative to make sure those guys make it to the tribe game on time.

Those times were from Google Maps exactly as described in each person's post (taking all the SR such as SR 68 to Urbana or 79 out of Newark, etc.). The only deviation I noted was the 36/77 one and that's only because google defaulted it in there and I noted the time difference before I changed it to take SR 93.
I don't know how accurate the Google times are but I thought it would give everybody a general idea.

Cool, that oughta work then. Thanks Red. I agree that we'll want to leave QS&L by 5pm, which means we'll want to arrive there by 4pm, right? That should work with the timeline that our fearless leader proposed, provided we don't stop for too long in between legs.

This is what I did earlier so I saved them to pictures. It might be helpful for people like me that pictures are worth a thousand words. Please let me know if any of this is wrong or needs changed.
First leg: Dayton to Columbus (OSUTX440)
Part 1 of Second leg: Columbus to Coshocton (Fridge56Vet)
Part 2 of Second leg: Coshocton to Strasburg (Fridge56Vet)
Part 3 of second leg: From Strasburg up I-77 to Canton's QSL: (Fridge56Vet/bakerjd)
Google Maps says about 26 minutes from Strasburg to QSL
**corrected map**
From there I figured a straight shot north on I-77 didn't neccessarily need a mapping.

Those maps are pretty much what I had envisioned. Are we going to the QS&L in Canton or Akron, though? I guess I was thinking about the one south of the Airport near the big shopping strip in Canton. Either one works for me, just need to make sure we're all heading to the same one. 
BTW, for all I know there is only one QS&L there, but the map didn't look like how I normally remember getting there off I-77. Apparently somebody's put a medal under my profile name that says I'm a 2nd guesser (hopefully only in good fun), but figured I'd provide an explanation.
Besides, double checking keeps me from doing stupid things (which, you'll understand when you get to know me).

when you exit on 77 that image is wrong. You'll see an Everhard road exit and its on the right side, you can take that way but good luck getting directly into the turn lane on that exit. I would suggest going past that exit and getting off at Portage. Then turn right, and take the first right (promway ave NW) down to dressler. turn right again and it's right there on the right, you'll see it.
the reason that image is wrong is because QS&L was set as the "A" point so it was going FROM QS&L to strasburg...which in that case is 100% accurate.

the only thing I noticed on the edited route is that you don't need to go all the way to whipple, just take promway and you get there a little quicker and bypass getting on whipple (busy)
thanks for all your help Red, we all appreciate it!
I just wanted to let you guys know that I probably won't be able to make the Indians game. I have to work the night before (I work midnights), I'm attending a camaro vs. mustang show in Brimfield that morning and should be at QS&L around 3:30 for the cruise. I'll just be too tired for the game and I'm still planning on cruising around with you guys. Can't wait!!!
