Depending what time the wife gets home from work, we'll be enroute.  I was hoping to be there around 4pm but it might be closer to 6mph.  I'll grab some space, what time are you guys coming...?  I guess I can park across to save enough space for TFA, if people won't be there until Friday early... :D

Let me know what you guys need...?

I'm in TX now, be @ the track @3 to helps save some space.

Bill

Got-busa & Bill,
First wave of TFA be at the track 1-2-ish today, sitting in line waiting for the "gates" to open; my heap=green 12 w/a SW, and MadMike=a swanky black checkered flag 12.  Mike (Texanzone) should also be there pretty early, he knows the drill.

The organizers generally want you to pull into the grass perpendicular to the road; we do that but just spead out as much as possible wo being rude :D, put chairs & stuff to hold the space for late comers like that ole lazy JohnnyCheese & ZXAlan & lowflyer & Osti/WildBill.
Often wrong, but never unsure!!!!!

I even cleaned my Fiddy up for pit pimp'n....



Nice. That should add at least 2 mph for pushing broken-down bikes back to the pits.  :lol:

Good luck to all you guys at the mile. :thumb:

Funny you mention that, we used the fiddy back in October to push two blown bikes all the way back to the pits from the end of the mile...I was able to get it up to 20 mph pushing the blown up ZX12....I told the owner that was the fastest he went all day. LOL..  Its a little work horse/pit pimp.

See you guys tomorrow night... :thumb:

got-busa,
are you going to the track tomorrow, grab some pit space, get tech-ed in?

Hey Karl, this time I am bringing a 12x12' tent with a "porch" extention.....Since Sleeper isn't coming this time I can't whore his tent so bringing mine.  Set me out some room to add the west wing onto the TFA fat camp mansion.  I will have lots of drinks(ie. beer) and stuff for everyone.

Alan,
yr turbo looks s-w-e-e-t!!!! :thumb: :thumb: :thumb:

Bring some tie downs for the TFA fat camp mansion; me thinks we be gonna use them.

Karl, I'll go buy some tie downs today.  Gonna cut out of work early today and finish packing up. Be heading out around 9am tomorrow morning.

Wife just called and said someone called in sick.  So my plan of arriving at 4pm is over... :(  Depending on traffic it might be 7-ish before we arrive but we'll do everything we can to get there and save space.  I'm bringing lots of drinks also (water, gator-aid, coke, etc.) and a few snacks the wife made... :thumb:

See everyone then and for those I haven't met; I'll be driving a Blue Ford Lightning pulling a nitrous injected UHAUL trailer... :lol:

Well it's as suspected. SRAD's tooth had to come out. He fought it as long as he could saying that he wanted to be clear headed while working on the bikes but it finally got the best of him. He's passed out on the couch still. They must have given him some pretty strong stuff. Anyway we are leaving tomorrow so see everyone Friday night Saturday morning.
Please drive carefully and be safe!
