We're planning on heading down from Bend, OR Thursday. Anyone else going?

I'm helping pit/chase for this '97 Chenowth:

Rick and John are running the spare parts truck again. I just got off the phone with him and the new engine and trans are in and they are testing this weekend... last minute stuff next week. I'm looking forward to getting the AAR... wish I was going with you guys!

Your wish has been granted Steve. All you need to do is show up at the Fab 7 am Saturday morning 4/23. We have room for you. This is going to be epic. John has really out done himself this year with a new 532 ci. stroker motor in the spare parts truck for some serious grunt. I can't wait.

Yeah, yeah. I know. I was hoping to head over but I'll be in AZ that weekend. Maybe next year.

Pretty sure the silver Bronco is or was owned by Barstow Rick Johnson? It's a very legit rig!

I wish I was going too, one of these years I will make it.

Side note here, but didn't realize you were in Bend. I'm up there there a couple times a year with the family enjoying a break from So Cal. Might have to try & get a beer next time (looking like September).

I actually live in Portland. The team is just based in Bend. But I'm over there often enough. Just give me a little notice!

I was surprised when I read Bend, and now that you say Portland that sounds like what I remembered. But I can give some notice & see where you're at.

Enjoy the Norra. Always wanted to go and have yet to do so. Marriage & kids have cut back on baja time quite a bit.

I'll be there again sharing driving duties in the #16 EB. Always a last minute thrash and we always have a blast!

If it's not last minute, it's not off-road!
