    Lembowski and I are heading out to the desert next week for a night run if anyone is interested.

    The plan is to head out from San Diego around 7-8pm next Friday, run for a few hours in Ocotillo Wells, camp, then get up early and follow the tracks south of Ocotillo Wells to Plaster City and be back in SD around lunch on Saturday before it gets too hot.

    We'll be hauling ass. :D

    Oh, now this is a definate maybe! But, with my stock truck, I kind think I will be an 'anchor'... and with my enhanced lights, you don't want me behind you! LOL

    Where you thinking of camping, Split Mtn.?
