    only issue would be the partying at night...

    but if you stay at BFE, the area that we use for camping/event site is very large which could allow you to separate your camp from the main fire pits.

    being may/june, temps during the day will be on the warm side, so make sure they're prepared

    not sure who else is bringing kiddos this year...i know a few of us will have our dogs though..almost like a kid :D

    There's a very slight chance that my wife and I will be bringing our 12 and 10 year old boys, but currently not planning on it. Trying to have this a trip away from the kids. 4 year old twins are staying with grandparents no matter what.

    Not worried about the noise...my kids can sleep through anything, was more concerned about them being bored. Other kids around minimize it.

    That's kinda my goal too, just gotta see what's possible and what's not. Thanks!

    At the moment no. It is in the 30's outside and I still have the direct drive fan, but during the summer and if I upgrade to an e-fan, then yeah a little. I have no idea what my tranny temps look like when I have been wheeling, but when I am out in the dunes I have no problem getting my engine temp over 200*F while playing and that is with it being in the 30's outside. (Pretty sure it's not a cooling issue either since temps come screaming back down in less than a minute when I let it sit at idle). Would hate to burn up my tranny and as Konsta put it, better safe than sorry.

    That's why my wife and I stay at a hotel in town. We're probably the oldest ones down there, but we keep our "adult" stuff to ourselves. ;)
