That's freaky... we nearly have the same birthday, George. I'll try to bring fj454 along if I can make time and also bring it home from Utah in one piece.

George, count me in. It was a blast last year and wouldn't miss it...finally finished the case of Fosters I won last year in the raffle so I guess I'll be needing to win more this year

I'll probably go in a day early and come up from Silver Lake through the lower rock garden...or whatever I did last year.

George,

When the dates get a bit close we should try to hook up for a pre-run and get early dibs on the campsites.

It'll be a good time...sure hope tornado alley shows up again, he was a riot after about 8 beers!!! (only good things meant by that )

hey dan.
it would be good to have somebody go up on friday or thursday night and "reserve" the site so those dam jeepers don't take it again.
we'll have to wait till we get closer to the date.

I linked the 45 run to this thread on root45

Do you still need a 45 design?

Georg,

Just got the hall pass for the weekend from the SO to go. Looking forward to it. I will hit up my buddies at Toyota for some raffle prizes. Any plans to caravan up there Saturday AM?

Brian

I'm still planning on coming. I took the 45 on a drive up to canada 150 miles. Developed a backfire and stumble under load uphill.. I was also starting to overheat gradually....can you say no thermostat.. Going to look at it tonight.

We may need a place to crash Friday any takers
