    Covered in stickers and chrome stick-ons for extra horse torques and foot powers. Icon sticker gets me tons of travel, dozens of milimeters.

    Oh they are fine. These guys know what they are doing and are probably making a hell of a time of it. Very capable trucks and drivers.

    When they get back they will give us all a hard time for the amount of hype. It is interesting to skip a meet time though, unless there was nose miscommunication. This thread is full of that.

    Only thing slowing @goblue82 down is finding another sled log.

    They've got to be out at the truck at this point. no way 16 hrs would go by without so much as a peep otherwise. My guess they'll get into contact with you when they get back out and one of 'em will get you a lift to your truck.

    they mentioned being supplied well with food and water, able to stay a few days if need be. Hopefully they'll be able to hunker down with this inclement weather coming through.

    Hopefully. things aren't adding up, it doesn't take very long to swap out those components with the right tools.
