TXDTR#8 (North Texas DTR) April Meet
Charlie,
I am contemplating the possibility of taking off tomorrow...if I can....and come on up to Sedalia with the new (yet unpurchased) Weekend Warrior Toy Hauler...pending brother-in-law's approval.
I need to get a chance to look that thing over good (frame problems mentioned on my thread in the Tow/RV section).
So I may be up Friday evening...possibly. I am assuming that is ok with you and park in the same spot that I usually do with my other one.

MAN....thanks for bumming my day out....that sucks bad...i cant even think if one of my girls would get hit....best thing is to just not put them in that position.....I bet they let the dog run free and then wonder why it got hit....but seems they cared a great deal for it........very sad......I would have been someone in the middle of the street as well if it was one of mine........
They have (had) 3 pooches. Some unknown person for an unknown reason opened their wooden fence and left it open while they were gone. When they got home, 2 of the pooches were running around in the front yard. They put them up and went looking for pooch 3. That is when they found beloved "Pecas" deceased due to massive trauma from an unknown vehicle. He was still warm. RIP "Pecas". Very cute doggie....well except for the last half of his body.

I know Dan. It was very sad! I really didn't know what to say to them. But I had to get them out of the road. They didn't want animal control to come take him....as they wanted to bury him. They were just in shock as they just lost their best friend and part of the family. Finally, we told them that we will bring him home for them and wrapped him in the sheet. They were in no state of mind to get him home themselves. Poor dog and poor family!! Some dogs are loved more than humans for sure...and this was one of them.
I was busy trying to catch some much needed sleep but the sandman eluded me until about 5 or so this morning so now I'm gonna have to stay awake until about 10 or 11 tonight (very early for me) to make sure I get a decent nights rest and get my schedule back on track so I can leave here early friday morning and be up there in time for the ladder bar install. Oh yeah, I need to buy a switch for my water/meth and install that.
Unless this mushy, muddy ground drys up a little, we be using "selective" parking this weekend. The way the wind is blowing today, I don't think it will be a problem.
Justin, since it seems like you were the last one across 121, do you remember any places near Lewisville where we can stop and eat? Some of these young guys think they have to have a sit-down meal every three hours.

Running 2-cycle oil in ULSD, as a test. Idles as smoothly as B20 and should have more BTU's for the dyno. (still 1/2 tank of B20 so....? Should be 80% test mix by Saturday.

What are we looking for? Sitting down in a fast food restaurant? Or sitting down in an actual "sit-down" place? There's an IHOP in The Colony. A Kettle and a Waffle House in Lewisville and plenty of fast food at all points in between.
Oweeeeeee... Ahhhhhhhhh... I-HOP!!!!!
I'll leave as early as I have to (and go off my diet) for I-Hop.
New Traction Bars should help too!
Get it???.... TRACTION bars???....more traction???....................................... ...............................nevermind.

Rowland you really need to get out more often.
Glad to hear you have the man power but I need to get up there and get my oil changed (speaking of which don't forget to bring some PLEEEEEEEEAAASSSEE) and get a new switch on my meth kit and possibly change the tranny fluid. Wanna try and get that done before the dyno.

Justin: Any one of the above..............
Rowland: Get a life! IHop on most every corner around here............
Tyler: Bring enough empties to carry off the fluids. No burning!
Everyone:
1) Someone that is coming EARLY needs to bring an onion for the chili.
2) If you plan on bringing your chiggers, best bring something to keep them from biting everyone else.
3) Ice (if you have a chest for it)
4) ???????
