Looks that way Ron! Plus a couple train rides. Very cool! Only 10 full timers this year though? That's a big drop from previous years. Guess next year we are going to have to bring the rally back east some.

Im hoping that there are quite a few who pull it off last minute and make this event a big one. I don't know if this kind of surge is normal or not, but would be cool.

Quite a few of us (myself included) are in the middle of repowering our trucks. That may have a few questioning their ability to make it . I,m gonna be sporting a Typ4 logger regrind under the ol hood. Can't wait to see how that bumpstick affects the giddy-up.

Gonna Make It

Well I will be making my reservations on fri. I am planning on coming in on fri and tent camping till sunday (i have a 4th party to be at sunday afternoon) it is only about 40 minutes from my house so I have to come. I am giving up a weekend of racing to be there but I think it will be alot of fun meeting all you guys. Can't wait to see if I timed my truck pretty close by ear.

Cool Man That's great, Bring your race car up and well race it for ya!

That is usually what happens, but the earlier they get thier reservation in, or throw in a hat for a head count the better it is for everyone involved, The Host, Campground, T+Shirt Guy, everyone that is getting the food together, etc..

Don't count on me by any means but it's only 240 miles away. I'll have to see what my parents think about it.

I see you are in Zeeland, MI,.. you are only about 15 minutes from my shop by 76th and Division, If you decide to go we could convoy if out schedules work out. Keep us posted.

Maybe a convoy will instill a little confidence in your parents and the crowd will be a bit bigger. Good luck

heck, if the convoy wont work, bring 'em with . i can guarantee a good time will be had by all

And I can vouch for Darrin to your parents as a stand up guy! I think the world of him and his family, great people, as are everyone I've met at the rally's I've attended.

I'm still trying to figure out the visitation mess, but it looks like it may be the summer week my daughter is with her mother. Maybe my girlfriend and I can make the trip for a day or two, she just started a new job and her schedule is not consistent but posted for each month about the middle of the previous month, so about mid June, she'll have her schedule. I'd love to say we'll be there, but at this point, just too much up in the air, but it's slowly finding it's way back to the ground.

FYI I posted the updated Rally Info over on TDS, and FTE. There has been a lot of talk about Moose Products especially on FTE so this would be a good chance for some of them to see them up close and personal.
