Brett said that he is going to bring some dogs + burgers with him to throw on your grill for everyone to enjoy.

Whats up with the truck (the new one)?

Well, boys I don't think I'm going to be able to make it. I've got a lot going on right now. Been gone the last couple weekends and going to be gone the next couple. I've been gone on business all week so far so I'm going to stick around and spend some time with my wife. I don't want her to freak out when I'm gone the next 2 or 3 depending on the rut with deer hunting. Anyway, I'm sure I'll catch up with you guys soon enough. Y'all have fun. I can't wait to hear the times! Try not to break anything except personal records. Good luck!

I am shocked that you of all people would say that .
Would you like to make a bet that I don't show up with a race truck on the GN? I am not talking about Geoffrey's or mine or Leigh Ann's. It does have a RAM body on it and it's pretty fast, that is all the info you get as well. Let me know if you want to make a Mountain Dew bet?

When I get up there somewhere around noon where will all the DTR folks be?

I messed up the other day on my trip to Mi, I lost my cell phone. When I get up (just got home 0230) I will be running into town to get that problem fixed I hope to keep the same phone number but not sure right now.

Cris
That's fine with me about the dogs and burgers. I'll bring some dead animal cooking weapons up with me.

See Ya
Chris

Hello All
I got the race truck loaded and ready to go. I am pretty sure this will turn some heads on my way up north. It is a pretty close match to the color of my truck. Sitting on the trailer with my truck hooked to the GN it looks pretty good.

I will be using Leigh Anns phone this week end. So don't call my cell phone number until the 25th.

I finished cleaning the BBQ grill and have some brats and buns and some Mountain Dew and water getting chilled in either the freezer or in the ice box.
In the AM all I have to do is strap the BBQ grill and warm the truck up and I am in route to the big event.

Has anyone heard if the Grill MASTER is going to attend? Top where are you?

Dennis
I will be calling you in the AM.
Looking forward to seeing everyone again.
See Ya
Chris

If it is fast enough to beat FORD Lightnings than it is fast enough. Once a ford lighting beats the dually then I will look for some more power.
Afterall it is just a "Little six cylinder"

Why do I need a bunch of bug juice?
One thing over the years I have learned if you take a shower every couple of days the bugs will stay away from you.
If need be I can fire up my truck every now and then to help with the bugs.

See Ya

Thanks I plan on going to MAP QUEST in a few minutes to get the diretions. I think it is 95N to 85 west for a few miles and that should be it.
I would rather know in advance where I am going with a loaded G N and truck.

I was able to get my hands on something I could not pass up. You'll see.
See Ya
Chris

Hello
My race truck had suspension problems and never made it off the trailer. It did get a lot of turned heads and comments on the CB on the drive up.

I'll try and get a picture posted with it sitting on the trailer hooked to my truck. No promises tho, everyone that knowns me knows I am somewhat COMPUTER challenged
I had a great time, It was great seeing folks I haven't seen in a while.
14 sec big rigs and 15 sec dump trucks
Take Care
See Ya
Chris
