Wish I could, but I will be working that day. Yup, the joys of retail management strikes yet again.

Let me see if I can make it. I too been itching for a scale run. Have you thought about whitewash instead of the rock house? Hopefully more can make it, and I will see what the *boss* says... |

| not particuarly, mostly cause i think of white wash as more of a "comp" truck territory. I would give it a shot though...even with a 10 plus pound rig |

I guess, i just figured its relatively near by and we did the last 2-3 scale runs that I have been part of at rock house... just thinking about something new. I messed around at whitewash a while back and it wasn't too bad. Oh wait, that's where my high-lift lost a significant amount of its body structure... hmmm... | |

I'm down to go to either location. I say lets try whitewash. Hopefully it's not too muddy, but the scale parts at whitewash are pretty cool and there is quite a bit of area to mess around. I say lets roll there. Just bring the mittens and cocoa. Maybe it's a good safe way to test "water- proff-ness" |

Well, I mean, its like testing a bullet proof vest while you are wearing it. You know. I mean, I could always just test the container while it's empty and see if water gets in. Otherwise, if the electronics are in it, and it fails the test, then what? | |
