Salt Rat, .............. no more than being down wind on a mid afternoon at 100+ degrees, or being first user in the morning, sitting on a wet seat and getting "blue balls" after a bombing mision.............

Aw, come on, guys -- I thought I was being serious here -- trying to help out by making it easy for one and all to decide if they want to have their own private potty at the Salt.  Go ahead, get it out of your system (oh, man, why'd I use that phrase) and then - we'll get back to the topic itself.

 Mr. Poop, er I mean Potentate, I know I can call the Honey Dipper's for this info, but how would we tell them our pit site until we arrive?

Ah-hah!  A valid question.  Thanks for asking, Bob.  here's whatcha do:

You call Trevor and make your basic arrangements -- and then when he and his crew are on the salt delivering the units -- they leave a whole sh*tload (too good to let go by) of them to the Seldom Seen Slim pit from whence you pick it/them up when you've decided where you want to be.  They move pretty easily - I use a tow strap behind the pickup and move gently - because they're already full of blue water and other supplies.  They can be handled by two guys - one can do it okay but it's kind of a grunt, so use a buddy when you put it in final position.  By the way -- they'll offer you stakes and rope to tie your unit down, and I heartily suggest it so you don't have the blue surprise when you get back on the salt after a big windstorm.  Also -- SCTA supplies a crew and wastebaskets for each of the units they rent - but not for the private units.  If you want a wastebasket in yours -- have it with you.

I'm sure getting you to post pictures of your car in the toilets thread is purely coincidental... :roll:

  Stainless, All LSR vehicles are "cash Toilets".
  Slim, why on Earth would I want to leave "waste" in a basket if it has a holding tank?
  If it was the World of Speed they would undoubtely have a class for "towed Sh-t houses, but I would rather not be a driver.                       Bob (who always sees the glass as half empty........).
