The hour to hour forecast is getting better each time I look at it... Right now it looks clear from 2pm on... rain only in the morning.

I am wiring up my APC right now.... 34 wires.....YIPPEE!!!!! I just have to mount my shocks then I can test it out... The body will take more time than the actual build of a rig itself... Lincoln Woods will be a real good place to test it out...

I hate to miss this crawl, but at least my new 2.2 will be ready for the next time. I will also have even more modifications to my CFNN.

It's on. My 2.2 is a semi-scale machine, and by tomorrow evening, it should be done or damn close. I'm not sure if I'll need wheel wideners yet and there might be a few other small things, but no matter what it will be ready to rock (bad pun, I know) at the next GTG.

My truck is done. Believe it or not. It's done. It took 3 nice chunks out of my fingers, but it's done. I have no idea how it will work, how fast it will be, or how it will crawl, but I'm done. PS: I really doubt this is going to happen tomorrow. It is predicting a lot more rain, a lot more frequently. However, if someone is down there with a truck, I will be down there.

I am still going. I want to test my 8 wheeler on some real rocks. If it happens to be raining at 1pm, I will take everyone to the best pizza joint in RI. Then we can go back. According to accuweather the rain is supposed to die off at about 2pm and be fine for at least 6 hours after that.

Hope to see some of you there.

Now, if you had said best strip club in RI,I'd be packing my car. I'm just kidding; it's raining pretty good here, and I'm a solid 2 1/2 hours away. Kind of tough to be motivated to do anything outdoors when the weather's like this.

I hope you guys get enough of a break to at least bust your crawlers out. I'm dying to see that 8-wheeler go.

we have the foxy lady. Its one of the best strip clubs ON THE EAST COAST!
I will absolutley get some vid of the 8 wheeler today. It looks horrible but the body will probably take me 2 times as long as the actual build itself.
