You are absotootely right.
Not sure what kind of advice you want. You have many options:
1. Go alone and suffer the wrath of Dad
2. Go with him and suffer the diatribes of Dad with the bonus of having that wrath right there next to you the whole time
3. Say "Screw the car!" and fly guilt-free (not that I think you should feel guilty about not wanting him to go...it doesn't sound like he wants to go so he can spend quality time with you. Or does he?)
4. Um...no #4.
Oh! There is advice, though: don't feel guilty. What you're doing is important for your future, and yes - you need to be focused and in a good state of mind. Do what you need to do. This is your life you're talking about.
