Think that 814 would have been sold it was a PIA just watchin him climb in it besides even getting to the point he was goijng to move it :doghead:

Then it became even more painful.
EH - think about trading that BASOB for a 37 - something you can steer ???

Nice pic TIgger - way to go - did you show them pics of you last buried up to your eyeballs at the rally in it - did not look so PRETTY and sissified then - hahaha

He's getting air dropped on a pallet....[thumbzup]

I hope the air drop coupling works so the 'chute opens..... I worked for a co. about 20 years ago that produced them; there were some failures. :whistle:

Glad you can make it and you can bring your Rover. Hopefully Jon will have his Rover there too.

There are several gas stations within 5-10 miles of Durhamtown. You will pass several on the way in.

D-town has gas (not sure about diesel) but it ain't cheap.

No, there is not gas close to the rally site. The closest cheap gas is along I-20. Here are the exit numbers, west to east.

Exit 114, Madison
Exit 130, Greensboro
Exit 138, Union Point
Exit 172, Thompson
There are gas stations in Union Point proper, but they are still 10 miles from the rally, and more expensive then along the interstate, so plan accordingly. :mrgreen::jumpin:
