That's not too far for me to go, under 2 hours according to Mapquest. I'm alright with that. Any good diners near you, Rick? How about breakfast at 8 on a Saturday then BS and truck work at Rick's?

We got the Red Lion Cafe opening at 6, Sholl's Rest. opening at 6, Buddy's Log Cabin opening at 6. Sholl's has buffet and open menu, the rest are just open menu. I seen Captain talking about Rickets Glen, which is a little over an hour for me. I'm game for anything, have a few KDP to put out of their misery, and gov. springs laying around here somewhere. Like I said, there's plenty of room here, plus I can make enough room in the garage to get two at a time in. I have the Snap-on stuff to do the 12v timing, and plenty of tools, and anyone wanting to just do reg. maint. or switching to syn. fluids I carry Amsoil or there is a parts store and a Napa in town.

I could also be up for this. Not much good with a wrench, but I'm good for moral support!


I don't live too far from Dave (Wannadiesel).

I'd have to say the decision is the presidents, any weekend is workable for me other than the last weekend in September.

Just looked at a calender, that leaves weekend of the 18 next weekend or were gonna be into October.

O.K., the weekend of the 18 or the 25 will work it's the weekend of October 2 that isn't good for me.

What are some of your schedules?

JYD-Thanks for the offer to use your place
9/18 and 10/2 are not good for me.
Any other weekend should be ok.
I'm compiling the components to do my BHAF-Template made and got a filter just have to get two elbows and some tube.
Doubt I'll have gauges by then, but may have a 16cm if I can locate a good used unit.

9/25 is bad for me, field day at the gun club. 10/9 is the Fall Brawl meet, 10/16 is OK so far though.

Bob, till we get this thing organized, I'll have a set of used gauges for sale, then all ya need is the pod to put them in, or use the one they're in now, if your interested.

Dave, just try and save enough stuff (KDP) to do at least 3 trucks.......please.

I'm still flexible, other than the week of the 2nd.

Rick

No worries on the KDP stuff, Rick. I orderd 15 screws (could not find them locally) from an outfit in MA, they sent me 50 for the same price. So at this point I'm about 45 trucks away from needing more screws. As long as you've got an air compressor I can do however many need doing.

I dont kknow that we can afford to drive there, pull there, or have my clutch trashed there.
Captain...
I am sorry that you feel like this will happen,but,if you've never been to a dyno event or know the Kauffman Motorsports why make a silly comment.You will not "trash" a clutch on a Dyno-Jet and I can be the one to assure you that we have dynoed near 400 trucks in the last three years,not counting what they do in between,and we have only lost 2 headgaskets and they were both on Jetpilot's "Slick Black Bottle Rocket" and when you combinme that much nitrous,propane and diesel fuel something has to give,LOL.

Obviously its your choice and maybe I am biased,but,this is show is definately a great time for all to enjoy.BTW,its the same distance from your area to Pine Grove as it is to Dillsburg........Andy

wannadiesel,

I may see you out there. I'm scheduled to pick the truck Saturday.

I'd also be up for a meet.
