Getting excited... my "getting ready" is a major undertaking of changing the oil & plugs and bolting the slicks on. Nothing crazy, I know, but I'm just glad I get to run it. See you guys tomorrow!

 

I HOPE SOME OF YOU GUYS POST SOME PICS ON HERE AS THE WEEKEND PROGRESSES

 

Jeff, did you ever get the PM I sent you?

 

My dad and my son are ready to go. Loaded and on the road in the morning. See y'all soon.

 

FED is loaded and we are looking forward to the smell of smoking pie crust slicks and high octane fuel.
That "Hard Launch Honey Weiss" sure is refreshing...

 

Just replied

 

Your not supposed to drink it... Save it as a memento!

Btw- this years beer is awesome

 

On our way at 3am. Loaded and ready!!

 

Last minute odds n ends..
Loading up in the morning, see y'all tomorrow evening!

 

Speaking of beer are we to support a brand?

 

Loading my junk "Miss Fire" tomorrow and heading to Byron, hoping it doesn't live up to it's name and hits on all 8 this year. I'll try to post photos for you enloe !

 

So we've got a big fat MAYDAY.
Some kind of serious wiring issue is preventing us from firing the car.
If anybody is an electrical Guru,we will definitely be needing some assistance when we roll in tomorrow.
Got everything done that we wanted to get done,then turned the key aaaaaaaaand........Nothing.

Damn it.

Still loading up in the morning,still bringing the car,we're just going to need a little help getting it to fire.

Thanks guys.

Scott

 

I will bring my wiring box.
Weather was not good hear

 

We at camp Gammz are big Hamms supporters

 

Milwaukee Brewing Company helped us out this year with our commemorative beer....unfortunately they don't sell around Rockford....

We are Miller boys up here...you can put your Budweiser back in the horse...

 

We'll try to help but isn't Canadian wiring backwards from US? Kinda like how there toilets flush?

 

THANKS,
We were planning on coming this year and I was bringing a truckload of car magazines. We were going to leave tomorrow evening but Ethan has a football fundraiser Saturday so we won't be able to come this year either

 

Oh great, I've never had Milwaukee Brewing, now your just tempting me to open it up!!!

 

West Bound And Down!! Loaded Up And Truckin!!!! (In the morning). The weather looks like it is going to be AMAZING!!!!

 

Saltflats:

I hear what you're saying about weather.....
This photo was taken around 9:00 last night,just before we shut er down for the evening:

Within minutes it was raining so hard you couldn't see a damn thing,and the trees got all bendy.

It's still a little wet out there,but we're on the way!
