Me and another guy are talking about taking his 4Runner down... I can talk to him about picking up others. We live in Chicago (Well, I just moved past the N border

) so the S side is on the way... this is all up the air at the moment, nothing has been finalized.

Now, this is also assuming I get my truck back together!

crawlinforfun · 06-02-2011, 08:33 PM

So what is the update on the food to bring for the event? I can pick some stuff up this week if need be. For the side events is it going to be ok if I bring my summit and my little brother brings his E-maxx he just got? We won't use those in the events, but just for like the long jump or to pass time between events. Let me know thanks.

johnnyh66 · 06-02-2011, 09:39 PM

I was going to bring my mini erevo. I'd like to bring the vmx450 but I need to rebuild the gyro again... doubt I'll have time for that. It's really fun... when it's running

jetboat · 06-03-2011, 05:31 AM

bring what ever you want for side events... if I get time to fix the 5b Ill have that.

dont know what to tell you about food, I think I listed off everything I know of... I do know 1 person was bringing chips.

crawlinforfun · 06-03-2011, 09:11 PM

I'll try and bring some basic stuff like bread, buns, and stuff if you want. I don't know how many packages we might need?

jetboat · 06-04-2011, 06:00 AM

Ive got buns covered... I dont know that anyone is bringing potato salad/coleslaw or cookies.

crawlinforfun · 06-04-2011, 08:04 AM

Ok well I got cookies then I guess. haha

I am out of this one Jeff, my wife is having to go out of town unexpectedly. Sorry to miss it as it looks to be a blast.

jetboat · 06-05-2011, 04:22 PM

couple more things I want to clarrify ahead of time... you do not have to run the same battery in every event. You can run a 3s 5000mah in 1 and a 800 2s in another. You do have to keep the same motor. The battery is the only thing you can change.
During any event, a "Hand of God" roll over will cost you 1 min per accurance.

johnnyh66 · 06-06-2011, 06:39 PM

The guy Iwas going to ride down there with might have to work now. I'm kind of up in the air at the moment.
On the plus side, my Gunnar Beef Tubes arrived today

jetboat · 06-07-2011, 06:26 AM

get your questions asap... Starting Tomorrow morning I will have very very limited internet.

jetboat · 06-07-2011, 11:37 AM

weather is shaping up good for Saturday... supposed to rain in the Chicago area but only 30% chance of scattered showers and high of 79 down there.

I am taking my awning and I have 1 down there already. Ill prolly clear out the barn so we can use it for a pit area.

Parking will be across the creek as always but, lunch will be on the cabin side and thats where the power is. Feel free to pit where ever though

scale-bronco · 06-07-2011, 03:15 PM

Should people bring extra chairs?

dellis86 · 06-07-2011, 08:34 PM

I'm getting a trainee this week so I don't know if I can stay as long as I was wanting, bur I'll be there.
I'll pick up some tater salad too.

WarTrader · 06-08-2011, 05:49 PM

Well I worked my rear off getting my 1.9 up and running nice an smooth only to find our I'm getting a new couch and I have to help the wife tear down the comp desk and move the living room.....

jetboat · 06-09-2011, 08:11 AM

You have 2 days to get the couch ready and still make it.

I just mowed and will be till a short course track in a few. Tank trap was built by nature and should be perfect, just have to figure out the obsticle course.

crawlinforfun · 06-09-2011, 04:27 PM

Looks like I won't be able to make it. Money just isn't going to permit. Sorry, looks like it was going to a heck of an event.

jetboat · 06-09-2011, 05:58 PM

Hill climb hill is groomed
Truck pull hill is groomed
Short course track is rough but built

Need to:
weedeat the rubicon
Dig out tank trap
Figure out an obsticle course

There's a storm rolling thru or I would be working now.
