Not sure if you mean cars, spectators or both----I'm going again this year as a spectator right after SEMA--was great last year---I imagine there will be more cars and more spectators this year---and the BBQ was great!!

I will be there - just watching.

Well, maybe helping out???? With what I'm not sure. I threw my name in the hat for volunteering to help contingent on what "helping out" consisted of. I just want to make sure that I am still able to enjoy myself since I'm paying a decent amount of $$$$$$$ to get to SEMA and the event.

See you all there!!!!!!

I was talking to Jimi today and I'm fairly certain he will appreciate any and all help he can get! It's gonna be better than last year and I for one can hardly wait. I'm kind of surprised Rupp is going to be there this year though, I mean he waited like a whole thirty seconds after Penny made us all look like we were parked before he started planning on how he could come out and spank us all again!:hail:

Okay -- so all I have in my head right now is a picture of one of those big black furry dogs --- with like slobber foaming out the sides of their mouth -- and they're just acting totally whacked out...

And there's no way you want this slobbering dog wiping that s*** on you!!

Sorry man! But I really got a good "belly laugh" out of this picture...

Hope you get your ride! See ya out there!

Let me know--if you are planning on a track day, I'll try to coordinate to get mine there as well. BTW, place I store my enclosed just kicked everyone out as they are remodeling for a year---no RV access at my house due to pool. You are fortunate to fit yours on side of house.

It was for this very kind of reason that I built in "trailer parking" when I put in my "shed"... I had the architect specifically design the driveway for "backing in at night" (it's dark and rainy here by 3:30PM in the winter). And it's hidden from me as well as my neighbors.

I used to store it over at a buddies house - he lives in an old fire station (way kool shop - and even has a hose tower) - but having it somewhere else was such a hassle and time waster. I can't tell you how handy it is to have it right here on site.

BTW - Really looking forward to meeting everyone @ the Shootout! :cheers: I'll be the one hiding from DFRESH!! LOL
