Gavin, are you still gonna bring your camper out there? Idk if I'm gonna do the TT and autox but I still wanna cone out there the night before. I might stay at a friends house the night before but I'm not sure yet. If not I might just bring my small tent and stay out there anyways.

They told me they don't have restrictions on vehicles. Although she did Snell 2005 or later, which worried me because mine is only DOT I think. I got it 2 years ago, if that helps anything with the 2005.

Turns out my helmet does say Snell approved. I assume it meets 2005 then.

It should be fun, since I will have just driven in from Midland on Saturday. I'm leaving here in a week, haha. Gonna hopefully go to bed early on Saturday night.

It doesn't really matter if it says snell on it or not. They never check.

That's what I figured. I'm pretty sure at the one I went to, they looked at brake fluid, pulled on the wheels, and looked at my helmet through the window.

I just hope nothing breaks on the drive home haha.

Interesting to see how you guys are classed. I'd assume they'd put me with the Cayenne's which is base class 1, plus 1 for my mods. So I'd be in 2.

Ok....so is there really only gonna be 3 of us there ?

Where the *** is everyone ???....Damon, Adam, Scott, Shawn,....???

I know Stu is suppossed to be there...but no confirmation. Looks like a small lunch crowd.

I might not bring the grill if only 3 of us are gonna be there....looks like it could be a Subway lunch.

Lets call this one " EMFH " which stands for " Every Man For Himself " My mother used this term once a week for our dinner situation.

With this group, who knows? I think they calles us all differently before!

Lets call this one " EMFH " which stands for " Every Man For Himself " My mother used this term once a week for our dinner situation.
I'm still brining the water and gatoraid (more this time) but the fast food places are close by so we can all hit up Braums or something.

Does our registration need to be current? Mine expired and I can't get it tested since I'm out of the state. Maybe I could go on Saturday though.

I'll have a cooler with ice in it. With just 4 people I should have extra room in it too.
