I have both Pirates of the Rubicon, 3rd and Reverse and a few others - not to mention some sik surf vids :D.

Talked to Troy with the East Coast Toyota Trail Team today. He has a big screen tv that he is bringing. If you have any wheeling DVD's you want to bring bring it on. We can watch those Sat night. I'll try to burn the ones I have.

He, Woody and the rest of the team should be rolling into camp around 4-5 on Friday.

Assuming there is some source of water close by (100-200 ft) I'll bring the hot shower for the cruiser. If not We can always take a shower trip over to the closest stream and throw the hose in the water.
 
Nothing in camp - Dan is right - the bridge is right next to trailer parking and overflow area - you basically have to drive a little ways to find a decent spot to park and get down the bank. I'm assuming it's hot as heck up there (least it is down here) and the stream will be perfect for dunking...course I can't soak with this new tat - but it was better to do it now versus while home, you never know when we might get a hurricane swell and being stuck out of water for a tat is frustrating...

Back to your regular scheduled program.

There is water pretty close to the main entrance...near that overflow area. I don't remember much being in the camp itself.

If you only knew the condition mine and JP's cruisers you would think you were driving a brand new LC.:D

JB weld and drive it for a day. If it holds in this heat for a day it will hold anywhere.
 
Update

I will buy hamburgers and hotdogs for Sat night. So only thing you need to worry about is breakfast and lunch. No to shabby.

Ken is bringing a 32 cup coffee maker for the group so we should have all that covered.

Also I'm bringing the fans we will run them until it gets dark. Most of you have had the pleasure of seeing them in action. Should provide a nice cool quiet stream of air for all of us.

Ken is bringing the Super Tanker. We will be using the generator on board for power for camp. I heard it tonight and it's super quiet. Whe plan on putting the tanker close enough to the canopy for power but far enough away from the campers so as no one is bothered.

Also bought all the club goodies for giveaways and raffles.
Hi-lift
12v Power Inverter
Impact hammers
deadblow hammers
magnetic bowls
part grabbers
seal pullers
telescopic mirrors and magnets
Dental pics (don't ask)
Hats and T-shirts

And probably some other things I have forgotten.

I'm looking at cooking wings friday night for around 35-40 people. Thats a lot of wings!

Menu for the weekend
Friday night 7-8:30
Buffalo wings (not the frozen kind but the real deal) 4 different flavors
Celery and carrots with blue cheese and ranch dressing
French fries
JP's Rotel dip

Sat breakfast
your on your own
We will have coffee

Sat lunch
your on your own

Sat dinner
Hamburgers and hotdogs with all the fixins
All kinds of chips
JP's Rotel dip (it is liquid goodness)

I appreciate it Marshall but at this point I am leaning towards bringing the 80 and hanging out.............. plus I can't run headers with my PTO winch set-up :D

we'll see how the 40 does on the ride from NA to Clemson Friday morning and I will decide then wether or not to push on to Tellico



Hey JP you want me to bring that extra set of headers I have?
 
On that weather post - does t-storms mean it rains all day/night or just scattered - I'll do a weather search but figure you'd know exactly...

I'm running without a windshield or frame as my new one isn't in yet - I don't mind getting wet at all (just wear my rain slicker), but if it's pouring makes for slow going :D.

Well I have the manifold from the 2f I just took apart. Don't know if it would work on an f
