Man, I am so looking forward to this. Need an OD green vacation!

Sorry, no Gumby yet, I'm working hard on it, but it's got a ways to go.

Can anyone post directions there from I-70?

 

[vlmuke]

are there going to be t shirts for sale?

 

[maddawg308]

My Steel Soldiers shirts are all gone, I just UPSed out the remaining stock to Mike (devilman) at the OD Iron store. He's going to be taking care of shipping out/processing orders for the remaining stock of shirts. To get a shirt, go to:

www.odiron.com

 

[Westech]

I will get there Thursday at some point. race you there Stretch

 

[gimpyrobb]

Stretch, when are you planning on getting there? You taking 75 to 275 or what?

 

[steelsoldiers]

I won't be able to get them in time for Haspin next week, but if you guys are interested I can make up some Haspin 2007 shirts using the black SS shirt on OD Iron ( http://odiron.com/store/index.php?cPath=41 ) for the front and then a Haspin design on the back. Let me know if you are interested. Thanks. Oh, and I do have some Haspin 2006 shirts left and they will be going up on OD Iron as well (except for the one I already owe to JYWC )

Not sure what time I will get there Westie (westie just sounds good LOL). I may leave before my buddy gets off work and let him catch up.
Will crossing on 70, exit 156a(Indiana) to 40 west, then south on 27(227). I will have a better departure time come next week.

Can't post any pics of my route, stuck with cellphone modem(14.4)! right now. My high-speed has been out for a month.

I'll take a shirt Chris.

Kenny going to be convoy central?

Dennis

 

[Recovry4x4]

Yup, I'll do convoy central. I'll post up my number in a few days for everyone to have.

 

[Stretch44875]

Got a bright idea today... Paintball! Have to dig a little, but I should have 4 guns. Just need paint and CO gas.

Has anyone heard about guys from last year coming out? Ehlomin, Hookin1, Stan, Fredradar?

Dennis

 

[gimpyrobb]

Elohim1(Chris) and Fred I believe are going to try and make it. Chris is putting the finishing touches on a 502BBC, Rockwell axle, 16r20, M715. They are about 15min away.

[Stan]

I'm planning on arriving on Fri. Bringing the Deuce and the M38. Stretch wanted to check that you will have your ramps. I've been watching but haven't found any yet. No HOOKIN 1, no generator, dang it. I liked his set up last year.

 

[Stretch44875]

I will have the ramps. I will have a generator, some spare power. 5000 watt, should be using 1500-2000 for my needs. Not as quiet as hookin's, but not bad.

Dennis

 

[maddawg308]

Okay, we got a final tally of who is going, with what vehicles, and at what times they are arriving? I'll start the list, and edit it as we go.

gilbert21/2ton, M35, Thursday night
gimpyrobb, M725, Thursday sometime
JunkyardWarsCrusher, M54 5-ton, ???
MadDawg308, civvy vehicle (will not be off-roading), Friday afternoon

[gimpyrobb]

Gill, a good friend got some leave, not sure when I'm going. Probably Thursday. Check your PM.

 

[maddawg308]

Crap - I might be delayed. Have to stay in No. VA until Friday 0630. I will be at Haspin at the EARLIEST Friday afternoon around 1600. Plus, I have to stop off at gilbert21/2ton's place to drop off these gay M105 racks that are taking up a good portion of my Durango's insides. Sigh. Guess I'm spending 2/3 of my Haspin time driving, and only 1/3 of my time actually there.

 

[gimpyrobb]

Mike, I only got about 5-6 last year, it is way worth it. Besides, I got parts and a truck for you to try.

 

[oilcan]

Count me in with the M35. I should make it sometime Thursday, probably late.

Oh, and I have parts for you too, MD. Speaking of parts, anyone gonna have some extra shear pins? I busted my one-and-only and haven't had a chance to order some more.
