Versailles would be tight but likely doable, Frankfort would be more realistic.
I've done Reserve from Versailles. You have to be ready to go though. Any farther east would be too far in my opinion. Especially with the I-64 construction ongoing.
In my limited experience of only doing Res B (noon to midnight local SDF) and only for a few bid periods; I was only short called once a few minutes after noon. I would typically have a pretty good feel for what was going on based on our ability to see the RADAR (reserve pecking order) and Open Time. Or if I knew that call out was likely, then I would place the open trips in preference order the night before, and one would be assigned in the morning.
Bottom Line: anywhere in Lexington is going to be problematic with only 90 mins from call to parking lot.
