what would be the best setups for flying 1mil km in a straight path with regular frigs and with interceptors
the best ive gotten was a tristan with 3 mwd's bursting at 67km/s but even then thats a long time to travel
ps: and no i cant simply warp to this location

227km is not 2/3rds of an AU
one au = 150mil km,
the distance i'm talking about is not even 1% of an AU
what I did was log on and off many many times and log on just as my ship stopped going to the 1mil km emergency warp.. since the direction is random i had to do this many times but the closest i got was to 470,000km
more than half way there, i dunno.. any other ideas?

Ok, thanks for the suggestions, a quick update.
The warping to an object behind with low cap is not an option as there isnt an object to warp to behind at all. I've considered battleships but came to the conclusion that the acceleration is too slow even on multiple mwd's... using a scorpion stocked with a ton of mwds isnt possible because you'd run out of cap to provide the boosts with... Everything else is way too slow, double mwd battleship is only a few km/s while double mwd frig is way more and can sustain it sometimes.
The bookmark I made is almost half the distance to the location through the use of emergency warps, and using a punisher at 8km/s (which it could sustain with high skills) then thats approx 15 hours of flight! I may just have to leave it overnight and make bookmarks in the morning..

sorry drunk, its not a stash of ships, its just.. lets say.. "a point of interest" 
and we tracked this location down after 3 hours, we're within 400,000km and yes we got some corpmates willing to spend hours flying afk while sleeping
question is how do we do it in the least possible time
