    Well good and horrible news gentlemen (and Lisa). I got the interview moved up to today and I did so well that they offered me the job a few hours later! That's the good news. The horrible news is that I have a mandatory training on the 8th that will keep me from going. I'm so sorry and I am so bummed. But the new job is going to be so good for me and the family. I hope you all get the circuit done without serious carnage and hope that lander comes up again next summer so I can bring the family and spend enough time to wheel Christina and Shoshone while taking time to fish and camp.
    This is so hard cuz I am so happy about the job and was elated when I moved the interview but was heartbroken when I found out about the training. Sorry again and I hope you all have the best time.

    was planning on meeting at eidleweiss house still monday morning. i'll be leaving here sunday and finding a place to camp somewhere that night. the recent douchbaggery that happened killed a lot of time so i'll probably be getting up there late so i can finish last minute things sunday morning.

    Yea possible. With the geometry you gain some but I think Jon's shackles are 1.25 aren't they?

    Either way I think you'll gain some. Not tons.

    I have u bolts for you too if ya want. My dads old ones that I used till after the roll. They are longer then your current ones and still in good shape. You can have em if ya want.

    Congrats!!!

    And damn it!!!!!! That totally blows..but hey. The trail ain't going anywhere :p another time.

    Great! See you there around 11. I'm sure we can all locate each other. Will be hard to miss me especially plus 4 other trucks and RTTs haha

    Ch 22 remember.

    :cool:

    And sweet. Ill meet you there with mark. If gage backs out it'll just be us three

    Yea kinda expecting him to back out of the switch backs. I will be very okay with that as his rig is very basic and he isn't super experienced with it. But we will see tomorrow. L

    Fellow wy expo member might run it tomorrow or Sunday.

    Also everyone doing the first two legs for sure. Bring rain gear. We have had some epic storms here this last week. Big ones. Be ready for some rain.

    Also, near by fire means leg one will be smoggy :pout:
