I'm wishing it was a little later in the winter but I may be down. I owe my buddy Darwin a visit who's about an hour from the badlands.

Any way we can get 2 trucks out and back on 1 trailer?

103"

Don't you remember cramming them both in Borings trailer to get it to the badlands last year?

Ohh yeah now I remember. My new one is 105" so more than likely they will fit. My trailer is the same as Borings.

If I go I will probably go a couple of days early to go to the IMS show in INDY and then meet a client before the race on Friday.

We'll talk at Rausch. Lots of if's to make it happen but it just might be doable.

I may be interested in going. When would you leave?

You guys still thinking about going?

I have to pick up the new RV in Indiana that weekend. I'd consider chipping in towards fuel to race on Saturday.

Dunno. Thinking but the only reason I would go would be if I get my new shocks from FOA and get them on before then. If I do anything I might just go out for the IMIS show on Wed and Thurs in Indianapolis.

Ok, well I have a plane ticket booked to Indianapolis getting in at 11am on December 5th. I am going to an RV dealership a little more then an hour from the airport to pick up the new RV.

If you're going I need to arrange for the dealer to bring the RV to the airport rather then taking me back to their office to do the paperwork so I can make it to badlands in time for the race. I'd chip in towards your fuel out and back.

I also need to do some prep work on the buggy if I was racing. Just give me a heads up sooner then later if you can, otherwise I don't plan to wrench on the buggy for a few weeks:thumbsup:

I just checked with FOA. I wont have the shocks and new bumps until after the 1000 so I'm not going to rush it. Still might head out there if Kyle will call me back. He has some parts I might be interested in. I'll keep you posted.
