Hooray for us as well!  We just got in and are checked in at Montego Bay. Saw quite a few bikes and cars on the way here from Las Vegas. Looking forward to getting to the salt tomorrow for inspection!

We have arrived with the Cheese, beer and Brats from WI. :cheers: :cheers:

I understand the schedule except one thing......What time are we allowed on the Salt each morning? 

Please advise.

Thanks
Burton

Whew, a long day today.  Got to the end of the access road this morning and had quite the shock.  The wind had blown hard all night and lands end had more water than on Monday.  The good new is:  no tracks were harmed during the excessive movement of air molecules.  However,  the access to the pits is the PITS!
WOS looks like it will all come together.  Thanks to all the volunteers that have put in so much work. Looking forward to Saturday when we can start racing.

Monte, you've got less than 12 hours to get things in fine shape.  I'm in Rawlins, Wyoming and heading to Bville as soon as I load the car.  You have everything ship-shape for me, okay? :-D

Burton, glad to see you made it. I hope you brought Point Special beer - it's not just for breakfast any more! I'll be watching for some fast times.

One more brick in the wall.  Yep -- I'm out here and therefore my wall is much more complete than it's been for the past few days as I drove pretty incessantly from the UP of Michigan to Wendover.

I'm heading out to Carquest and the salt now.  I've got the camera and will try to get some good photos to show you how the salt is - and I'll post them for your conflaguration, okay?  And then you wonder about the live streaming, don't you?  That's why I'm visiting Mike at Carquest -- because I had some of the hardware shipped to his store.  I sure hope it's there and waiting for me.

Later - -

Noel, if you look at your "location" you'll see that Jon has filled it in for you seeing as you didn't fill it in yourself. I'd suggest you go back into your profile and adjust it to your location on the great Canadian prairie.

Good to see your participation. Unfortunately you'll probably find that you're hooked for life. Have fun, go fast and be safe.  :cheers: :cheers: :cheers:

Pete

Well, Peter Jack, sir -- you've gone and spoiled my fun for the day a few days back.  Noel -- my way of teasing new folks (and sometimes the old timers here, too) that they didn't completely fill in their Profile page when registering - is to assign locations to those who didn't pick their own.  You can see what that means in your case, hey?

I'll look for you in the pits over the next few days.  I'm sort of easy to find -- tall guy, hair going grey, wearing jeans shorts and a race t-shirt.  Keep your eyes open. :roll:  Welcome to the Forum - and good luck in the fun.  Red Neon, hey?  What class or which of the 130 or 150 will you be running?
