tiedye your own..

 

great we'll all be wearing rainbows

 

i believe jace has a design down...we're working on a price and funds...would be nice to have a sponsor for tshirts to get a bunch made and sell at the event..but we may have to paypal $$ to jace and if you get $$ in you get a shirt...so a design will be displayed here and you can decide if you want one...

 

does bfe have running water? Where are we going get all water from in the desert?

 

no running water....but i'm sure after a night of drinking we can come up with something

 

Jerry cans filled with water boom problem solved.

had a discussion early on about this subject, a good video to get an idea of good techniques

 

nope... bringyouur own. for example ihave a huge 5 gallon container for water. use it for fire, cooking and hand washing. then i have drinkin water in the cooler

 

I have a 5 gal container for potable water too. Sorry, but its not getting poured into a kiddie pool for a "kids piss pond" and a compressed air jacuzzi ha ha

My beer will stay colder in my cooler too. Dont worry... i'll still share.

BUT... if we can get er' done, the kids pool will be fun.

 

Ohh yea... NYCO the video was a good idea. Im sure with all the experience in this group, there will be a bunch of different approaches to spoting but this will help with some consistency. its good for the spoter and the driver!

 

yea i know that there will be some inexperienced there and hopefully this will help get them started in the whole spotting idea...good point he brought up was to discuss the line before hand and the spotter's job is to make sure the driver hits the line the driver wants to hit..he's not there to tell them where to go per say (unless you been wheelin with somebody for a while and you know what the driver and truck can do), the spotter is there to help the driver see what is in front of them and to hit the lines they were planning

...so on difficult lines, it is key to get out and walk the obstacle before you go, and discuss with your spotter to make sure you both are on the same page

 

for those looking to run fins out there...Jan put together a couple cool videos from his recent trip..

 

just throwin this out there. iwas told once especially with 3.4s to overfill your engine oil by half quart. that way at steep angles it doesnt starve. its a great i think and i havent had a problem

 

That's good info to know!


I'm hoping I can still go. I just changed employer's and I've currently got my fingers crossed that I'll be able to get the time off reapproved. I'll at least be out there for the weekend. I just hope I'll still be able to caravan out with the early Denver crew. I wanna spend as much time out there as possible!
