Looking forward to running World of Speed. Hopefully we will be able to run this year. Bike has been ready to go for the last 2 years but the salt hasn't been.

 Hi all, hope all's well ! Wondering if there is anybody planning on attending the 2024 T&T in June that might have an extra live body available? I MIGHT need a recovery truck driver/belt up helper. I have a commitment from my nephew, but just found out he's having a baby (well NOT him  :-D ) and I am not so certain he will be able to make it. It is hard for most people to take T&T and WOS in the same year. My regular teammates may try to make it but unsure at this point. Hit me up if there is anybody interested. Thanks and fingers crossed for great salt. Have a safe spring! :cheers:

Morning Sid, I met you a couple years back at WOS if my old memory is still functioning. I was based out of Eugene Or at the time but now I am happily based about 500+ miles north of you ,by the Idaho panhandle. Little burg called Troy ,Mt about as west as you can get in Montana . Looking at a map , you are real close to the salt, I'm jealous but wouldn't trade where we are for anything. We don't even have a traffic light  lol8 I will definitely keep in touch as we get closer , I should have a firm idea if my nephew will actually make it by then. But even if he does, if it's ok with you and your crew, I'd still like to pit near you and immerse him in LSR ! And probably learn a lot of ........ stuff. Thanks for you reply , looking forward to a great year  :cheers: :cheers:
