Thanks Scott.
I am running a stock AX10 with Chisels and get around the pile decently. We have a Sportsman/Limited class that does not allow dig and set up the courses accordingly for those vehicles.

Would love to have you stop by and check things out.

The area for the 1.9/Scalers has been cleared. The tables have been turned into walls and you can start construction of the course anytime.

We need to sit down as a club and decide when our next trophy comp will be. What is everyone's schedule for the next 3 weeks. As I see it...

We have...

Friday the 20th (Fun Run Night) We BS enough that we could have a club meeting if we have enough people. Though we don't want to inconvenience any of our new friends that come out to visit.

Sunday the 22nd (Comp day) We could have a club meeting before the comp. Say at noon at BFG.


The following week is Thanksgiving weekend. I know personally I will be out of town from Wednesday through Sunday evening. It is usually difficult to get a lot of people out on a holiday weekend. Plus, who can think after eatting all that turkey. LOL.

The following weekend would be Friday the 4th or Sunday the 6th. I think we really need to get this decided and start planning it. We are already going to be pushing our first trophy comp out to January, if we give ourselves a month to plan.

A couple of thoughts towards this comp... we may want to talk to the LHS and see if anyone is interested in donating door prizes, or raffle items. All raffle items would have to make enough to clear the cost of the item... etc. It is just a thought.

Post your availability and we can see if we can make this work.

I will be there Friday Night, and Sunday this week.
I am MIA the week of Thanksgiving...
and I am available Sunday the 6th. Friday night (the 4th) is my wifes x-mas party.

It was nice meeting some of you guys last night. Maybe next week I will try and bring mine out and try the pile.

Can the rocks be ran any day that Battle Front is open? Just wondering if you can go on a Saturday and practice/play?

Thanks Scott.

Practice days are Mon through Sat and are $5 ....... Sun comp is $10. All proceeds go to keep the building warm and the lights on. The comp on Sun starts at 1pm. Should come and check it out.

Yes, Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Thankful for being able to keep the doors open and the lights on.

Hope to see all of you that are not out of town for the weekend out Friday night for some fun on the pile. Great evening last week with lots of crawlers and lots of spectators.
