This year it's looking good for Team 608 from Jersey to head to the June meet. I was down there two years ago and didn't prepare well enough, I brought enough beer but didn't have the time to find NC Bar-B-Que.

This time I'm gonna ask here before we leave for suggestions on BBQ.  Is there any near Laurinburg? I guessing that we are staying near there as that's where we were last time.

Thanks.

Frank,  Laurinburg has a SmithFields BBQ,,,, very good "Eastern Carolina Style BBQ"  great southern fried chicken too,,,  a combo plate of both is under $10....  now since I live near Lexington NC,,, I could be in trouble as this part of the State sell "Lexington Style or "Western Carolina BBQ"   I like both styles.

Eastern Style is Vinager based sauce and Lexington Style has tomato base...

Bring plenty of Ice for the Beer,,, it is going to be HOTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT

Charles, THANK YOU.

Looked that up on Google and it's closeby.
I like anything that don't have mayonaise in it, So I'm good with that.

Lots of ice. I drove my 54 Chevy down last time and used the IR thermometer on the floor, 140*. Riding in the tow Suburban this time. :)

See youse there!

Well I will be there this weekend with my Nitrous Honda 250.  I finally made it down to the shop over the weekend.  I had my speedo/tach/H2O Temp dash stop working last meet.  We decided it might be dead from vibration.  But I now bothered to read the Troubleshooting part of the manual and found that it was merely a dead internal battery.  You know that cheap ($3.50) actually available almost anywhere 3v flat battery that I forgot was even in there.  Put a new one in and the unit said "Thanks, I needed that!"
I just picked up two freshly filled 2 1/2lb NOS bottles.  Hopefully they are full of Laughing rather than Crying Gas.  Based on the weather forecast I guess I won't need a bottle heater to reach 900psi....Also with the hot humid air driving the Oxygen concentration down I will be glad to be importing my own N2O into the combustion chamber to minimize the bad effect.  Hopefully I can match that with the right amount of fuel.  See everyone Friday afternoon.

No, dang it, we won't be there this time, either.  This is the longest stretch of no Maxton events for us - in about ten years.  We've got an all-day seminar in Chicago this Saturday, where we'll learn much more about sublimation of apparel.  Hunh?  In other words, once we've learned and bought some equipment -- we'll be able to make t-shirts with real photos and logos and whatever - right on the shirts, in full color.  Hats and coffee cups and mouse pads and crystal paperweights and such.   Gotta keep growing the company, you know.

Anyway, the big bike -- Nancy's ZX15 (as we call it) isn't ready yet.  The engine should be reassembled by the end of this week, and then it goes back into the bike for all of that work - including some tuning and maybe a bit of ballast in the swingarm.  All of this work is intended to help her at Bonneville - as she doesn't enjoy riding a fast bike at Maxton.

So no, we don't plan to be at Maxton this weekend.  Sorry -- but we'll think of you folks enjoying the fine almost-summer weather.  It's raining and chilly up here - and this is the first full day of summer, right? :?

The temp is actually supposed to drop by the weekend.  Low 90's, but high humidity.  I'm in North Central NC and we were in code red air quality yesterday for the smoke from the coastal wild fires.  The smoke haze dropped visibility to less than 2 miles.  It smelled like the fire was next door.  Friends in the Pembroke, Southern Pines and Lumberton area said they were all basically clear.  The wind had kept the smoke away.  It was 100 at Maxton yesterday.  Looking forward to the cool low 90's.
