No kidding....Sitting here off the coast waiting not so patiently...haha.
I just talked to Matt and it looks like in main we will only have two guys hes brining out. If you hav eanyone that is interested in hanging out in main let us know. I think we will be okay but it would be nice to have another set of hands. Gary will be there for the first half and then Matt for the second. Matt may jump back in the car if I cant make the whole race in the right seat. I think I can though so we will see. First gas stop is going to be important as we dont know what fuel consumption to expect with the motor change. We will be making at least two stops. Should be a good time hopefully it will cool down pretty quick this year.
What time you coming out T?

We will be up around 3pm Jeremy....

I thought we were covered at main... I will shoot Matt a call to see if maybe we need to shift strategy a bit... maybe we can just bounce around the access roads and come in to help with the first fuel stop.

I'll be these Friday night to hang out and camp. I'll take off around noon on Saturday I think. I have a booth to setup at the Calendar show in LB.

Polarcub: I will be bringing your parts and dropping them off.

Ollie: I have $20 for stickers I got from SteveG for you.

Philo cool, I wont be out till about 7-8 sat morning. We are going to be near the second outhouse tpo the left of the ohv entrance. If you want PM me your number and I will give you a call when I get there. I am trying to get a lap in before I have to be at the MORE trailer for sat banding. I think Matt is dropping the car at the pits fri night since the martees and tuts are there if you see the car and want to drop the parts next to the trailer thats cool too. Thanks for bringing them out. See you out there.

Well I think we have main covered, I think Spider monkey is going to make it out. THey are not going to race the KOH car this time but testing prior to the race and then helping gout if we need it. Matt is bringing out 2 guys that run district 37 I think we are going to be okay. Look forward to seeing you out there. I am taking off about 5am in the morning to get a lpa in in the morning. See you soon.

Ollie was skooting, definitely doing that truck well especially later towards the night, you could tell he picked up some comfort in it.

As for the Kavedudes, we were running solid in 2nd place for two laps, had some electical issues and timed out after the third lap.... but not really sure how many guys other than the first place guy finished.. attrition was really bad, so I think it might end up being a 3rd or 4th for Matt/Jer

Was a great night for racing, once the sun came down, a nice breeze was blowing and the weather was cool!

First Off congrats on a great race Ollie. Glad the truck worked well for you. As for Kaveman well.....Tough day. I will post a report later today just got home.

THANK YOU TO ALL THAT CAME OUT AND GAVE US YOUR SUPPORT! Tony and company you guys one again were pivotal for us. Sure wish we could have resolved the problems to finish the race. We always hate having to come to the point that decisons have to be made. All of your hard work is very much appreciated. Thanks again!
