Tan HMMWV?! I passed them on the way back to the freeway. But did not see any plates so I wasn't sure if they were driving the base.
That was the Military Police, not a SS member. We passed them as we were leaving camp.

Nope they acted the part, came in said a drone flew over and they were sent out to investigate what our group was. Then they came clean, 100% personal HMMWV with a 6.2l, I think I remember his SS screen name was Hummerguy or something like that, I asked him to post up on this thread. Some were active duty and some retired or reserve, they came out to check out our event, they were kind of bummed that you guys (BadCarp BadKarma) and Us and Fastnova were leaving when they got there but we talked with them and stuff for about an hour before Fastnova’ group and Us pulled out to convoy home, they stayed at camp to throw some skeet a while. He also does surplus sales like back packs, hats , boots and new commercial made gear etc.. I bought a big Back Pack off them a couple smaller packs and a hat, dad bought a hat, reduced prices for SS members.

Oh, nice, well they sure looked the part with the HMMWV having the correct markings and they were in ACU's with US Army tags. I just get events confused all the time as ACU's are not allowed at the Lionclaws events UNLESS you are active duty.

Bad carp after reviewing your race video (Thanks for posting), it looks like I was wrong on the second race results, First was Fastnova, Second Blendmaster, Third Artisan, Forth Badkarma. I couldnt see Artisan in my mirrors due to the dust.
