2012 Haspin info/dates/attendance

[erniemigi]

I wanted to get my truck finished to bring, but the project is spiralling out of control. I keep adding to my to do list.

Oh you know as soon as you get one thing done you start looking around and find another thing to fix or add to it, thats the problem my wife says i have, i put a new horn on it a couple months ago then next thing i know i am taking it off and putting on Semi horns, it came with an air compressor but i think it's to small so i'm putting a bigger one on it, ohh yeah MORE POWER ohh ohh ohh.

All you need is a reserve tank!

Ill have a one of the 4 trucks. Wish I could find a way to haul my M149 and Kubota RTV. Just need a 30 foot long trailer. Maybe next year.

Just towbar the kubota, and hook the M149 to that!

 

[swbradley1]

The trailer is packed now I need to go around and check the air pressure in all the tires. I'll probably load the ATV today into the Dodge and tie it down. I found out I don't have to remove the tailgate and I can pull the travel trailer with the gate down.

Unless George gets there really early I may be the first in.

 

[gimpyrobb]

You going tomorrow? I think thats when George said he would show up.

Hay gimpy I have a m52 fuel tank with brackets if your really wanting a reserve tank.

That's the plan right now. I have beer and a cooler.

 

[EMD567]

Well, the rain has set in here in SC. I still need to load my spare tires, troopseats and toolboxes. I want to give the girl a grease job, and inspect the running gear, but right now mother nature is rather sparky.

 

[eagle4g63]

I'm coming in with George tomorrow, we aren't leaving up here until 6pm.....he has to work

Glad I'm the boss......I'd leave as soon as my eyes opened tomorrow

 

[swbradley1]

Depending on conditions I may either be at the top where the truck accident occurred or be down where Stretch managed to crash two trailers together. If it is wet and slimy I really don't a repeat of 2009.

 

[eagle4g63]

Anyone happen to look at Haspins' schedule?

There seems to be a super-cross race on the 16th.........Any chance of rif-raf wondering into camp from that event? Don't want to have any trouble. I use to race and know that depending on the track there can be quite a LOT of people.

I don't want to have to worry about being out trucking and coming back to stuff missing

Generally the camp is never empty, and we all tend to look out for others stuff.

I am going to need room by the shelter to set up the genset. i will be out after noon with the girl friend to get set up.

Thanks,
Rob

If anyone wants to be help a brother and save me a spot, I would like to park the 105 trailer adjacent to the shelter, -or- at the flat lane on top of the hill (where I think Stretch is describing.) I am hoping to make it out on Thursday afternoon.

It makes a nice assembly area if no one parks under the shelter , but rather just back up to it.

Don't worry, i'm sure somebody will set up Guard Towers mounted with 50 cals, barbed wire fencing, motion sensors setup around the paremeter, but other than that i'm pretty sure there will be plenty of people around the camp to keep an eye out

 

[Stretch44875]

I'll give you a call if I remember, when I get there wed. I think there will be enough room.

 

[Junkyard Wars Crusher]

Anyone want to volunteer to help put up (and take down) the 40' flagpole? I will bring it if I have some help. It will probably take about 6 guys for 20 minutes. Please reply if I can count on you.

Is Neil Hendrix coming? He promised to bring a really big flag !

 

[eagle4g63]

Junkyard, I would be more than happy to help with the flagpole.......just don't like heights so ground help only for me

I kind of figured there would always be somebody around.....plus I was hoping no one would be STUPID enough to mess around by a bunch of military trucks!!!

So where is the sign up sheet for manning one of the 50 cals

 

[Ferroequinologist]

I'll help with the flag pole IF I make it. Neil is probably not coming, might cause all of us from here not to go, still hammering out the details.
