B'ville. who's going?

I should be there Sat. or early Sunday. Meeting friends from Seattle. They have a motorhome but I'll be driving my white 2000 F350 with a big old flatbed, and sleeping on the ground. Plus the Hooligan is tagging along.

Not this year... next year unlikely as well, but I hope to see it before I die!

I'm like Dr. C, I won't be there for a couple of years, but it is on my bucket list.

Don

I'm stopping by on the Wednesday for a fleeting visit during my drive to Vegas.

No bucket list for me, just a to do list. I be there as long as I the mechanical gods don't hit to hard on the way. Thinking about going to the Salt lake speed shop party on the 6th, tech on 7th, then for the races through Sunday sometime.

Gosh, I thought there would be more.

Man!! Would love to go this year. Too many other commitments I've let get in the way.

What?? nobody else going to hang around the salt flats, probably won't need to wear a sweater should be warm enough, might be a few cool cars there, maybe a couple of fellow gear heads.

I read at least 9 wheel driven cars are trying to break 500 this year. Realistically only a couple have a chance and the salt is going to have to co-operate.

i am starting to doubt if i will ever have the money and time in my life to go there.
sad but true...

right there with you bud.

We can expect plenty of photo documentation can't we WB?

Never been to the salt flats, I checked out the site for it and looks like a blast. We have highway 15 here in Cali, like the autobahn. Been 212 in a 67 stingray just past Escondido. I think I left a present on the seat I was sitting in. Someday I'll check out the flats, not in the cards this year.

Lots of extra batterys for the camera and a 4 gig card, should be enough.

Hey, we all make the time for what's most important. I was always going, then fizzled out with the same excuses. Last winter I started just ratholing a little here and a little there to take my daughter to Seattle for spring break and found it wasn't that hard when I disciplined myself to make the money off limits for anything else. So I kept poking away and had enough to go to her graduation in Texas, kept it up and then there was enough for B'ville and it just happened to work out for my good friend in Seattle to be his year to go also. So 3 trips this year and I don't even have a job.

I wouldn't mind doing a casual caravan down from Seattle area if'n anybody from the Northwest is making the run, I have tools to help others, just not the ones I will need.

Maybe you could hook up with my friends. They are leaving Friday I think.

Just got to town, will post photo's when I find my camera in the car.

Has the water went down? Saw some pics over on the HAMB that the salt looked like a lake!

Yeah, I heard it was muddy but it hasn't rained for a couple days and no rain in sight. Lets hope it dries up so they can go fast.

Current schedule is for tech on Sunday go fast Monday, good rides at the casino last night should be a few tonight.
