Well I hate to say this but I'm not going to make it. The 40 could be loaded on the trailer and hauled over for the week, but it would not be ready to be wheeled as I like to. The steering wouldn't hold up long to the bigger tires and lower gears, especially with my right foot issues. So I'm going to stay home and spend more time in the garage.

Bummer, Mark. You could bring it over to my shop & let it set with my rig while we go have fun...then we'll finish them when we get back. Maybe the Cruiser Gnomes will fix them while we're gone.

Would it be possible to do just the first weekend at Washita? Just a thought, haven't seen you on the trails in a while.
 
I've checked out all the computer maps that I'm willing to and have 2 different links. To get to the Cracker Barrel on IL 157 take I70 west to exit 10, I255 south to exit 20, I64 east stay in right lane as it turns into the exit 9, IL 157 turn right to the Cracker Barrel.
Driving Directions Search - Rand McNally The Google map does'nt have MO AA listed and there are no signs for what they consider MO Y where you need to turn.

Here are the park to park directions.

Is it possible to get a count on how many rigs are coming now that a few have dropped out. I want to try and get us a deal on the park at Washita like a free night of primative camping. The last time we were there for 2 days it was $20 for the first day and $10 for the second when payed on entry. Primative camping was $5 a night.
 
I'm in.
I vote for a Saturday start time. I think I have the longest drive but I can be on the road early.
 
in, saturday.
 
I'm in (Clints passenger seat) so I'm saying when he leaves that's when I'll leave. Saturday is fine with me
 
Anybody know if Carl is going?

I believe he is. I am also in for Saturday. I believe we have at least ten trucks.
 
I just got out of my Thursday and Friday classes. The other class that was supposed to go all that week was canceled.

If I get my ass out in the shop instead of checking out the lunyou returns threads, the only other hurdle would be getting smaller.

I got to stop at the Arby's in Rolla and get lunyou to make me some curly fries.
 
Carl is in with his Runner and his friend Jeff will be wheeling his mostly stock 40.

Do we want to do any group meals? We have tried to get together a menu on the past for bigger events like this with good success. One year at GSMTR we had deep fried turkeys one day, a ton of buffalo wings another, burgers and dogs, etc. It made us pretty popular quick around the campground and I think we met every participant that year!
 
We like the idea but Washita and Flatnasty will probably not have a lot of other people there. Saturday is the most popular day at Washita from when I have been there. A group meal might be more appropriate at SMORR with the Tornado Alley Cruisers and some of the Ozark Mountain Cruisers being there if that is the intent.

With it being a little hard to get the Gateway guys to commit due to schedules, I only have 2 confirmed coming at this time. I would like to see about 4 or 5 from that group. They would be for Washita and SMORR only I expect.
 
Meals, I'm up for whatever. I will have a medium sized portable gas grill. I will gladly trade the use of my gas for some briquets that I will save and sell to Bill.
 
Sorry guys, I out for the whole deal. Had to rethink the whole thing and figured I'd be money and time ahead to stay home and spend the money on parts so I'm ready for the rest of the summer. This was not an easy conclusion to come to but I keep telling myself that it is best(maybe I'll belive it soon). So hopefully I WILL see you all SOON.

We need to also consider possibly pitching in for breakfast. I figure everyone will be on their own for lunch stuff. Who is good at planning menus. Clint will attest to the fact that I am not.

Last I spoke with Carl he was in.

Hey,BAMF, is poundin the fenders some kinda slang for jer¤in off? Or what....

I'll help out on some food, but you all know I'm a special needs child, so no deep fried stuff for me. I can cover my own groceries.

I'm ready to get show on the road
