I'm actually excited to see how the new ones will be. I love the Chrysler ones because of the stow and go seats. Flat floor + $8 air mattress and you've got a climate controlled, insulated, steel box to sleep in.

And that's right, joeb, a grey Mazda wagon, that, according to Pops, had a very surprising top end! Quote:
And I am certain it's not as leaky and as poorly insulated as the 94 Aerostar... |

I assure you it's better than the front seat. Watch out for the "or equal" clause!

Side black race stripes that said Dasher on it, cherry bomb glasspack, split chrome tail pipe, leather steering wheel wrap, and a wide angle rearview mirror with 4 panels on it. In short, I was "Peter Gregg". That car also made it through the first 2 years at GSU before it got traded for 4x4 Chevy Luv truck. |

Luckily the past few times I've gone I've actually had choices on which van I've wanted! If I was stuck with one without the folding flat seats, I'd just get some tools and unbolt the seats for the weekend.

I like cars and giving you $hit (everyone really). And I find it hilarious that JH likes all cars but certain Japanese ones and Porsches. His disgust makes me laugh.
---- So, no word on ticket arrival. The first year in at least 6 I've purchased mine in time to actually NOT have to pick them up at will call and this happens. Still looking dry. http://droughtmonitor.unl.edu/Home/S...onitor.aspx?GA Andrew, what's the grass report? Or have you not been up there yet? This is kinda cool. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PYpLR0DlsrI This isn't: https://twitter.com/WakaFlocka/statu...99151047163905 #AtlantaRaceway? WTF is that? Canamman; was that near the Peach Bowl? |

Think I'm going to get a slant leg canopy to put out at the track fence for some shade out there instead of the rigging and duct tape for someone's ancient one. And I have the two 10x10s for the kitchen and seating. Not sure if the two other destroyed in the sunday wind were replaced or if Eric/Megan or Thomas are coming. I'm going to take up our usual space and give away any we don't need, with the back of the tree saved for the couple and their tent who claims it every year. And I'll try to find and defend to Mitty holes for the Apache legs. Yeah, I might be looking forward to an afternoon of nothing but setting up camp, and a few 'sodas' just a little. Do we have a replacement Aussie grill after Tony's was sacrificed to the gods of historic racing this spring? |

I've been sleeping in a 5 person tent, and it works just fine. I had to put an extra tarp on top last year to keep the rain out but it's all good. I have an air mattress but no indoor plumbing, so it's just like home! |

Last year Andrew saved the best spot I've ever had. Under the oak tree with a parking spot right next door. I expect nothing less this year!

I'll know better Sat evening what we'll need, finally actually get the gear down and go through everything and replace a few things. Think the Mitty remainders are good for most everything but I know I need a few refills of kitchen stuff. And think we finally used your 3-4 year old paper towels this past Petit. Prob will want two gallons of oil for the chips, and however many potatoes as you think we'll want. I'll try to find a large, and clean, funnel at the house since it should be good for a couple fryings. Already have a couple bags of coffee, starbucks on sale so grabbed it last week. Plus stockpiling my Terrapin recreation 'sodas' since they're cheap this week too. Wonder if they'll check the few of us heading in early or figure we paid enough so let us in. If the usual neighbors are there for the historics I'll see what time they're coming in to block space if someone tries to poach before I get there. Assuming JHamilton has seen the QT at Lawrenceville Highway and Cooledge has ethanol free gas for the generator so it will run better than the usual pump stuff. And joeb, you'll get what's left when you arrive after an uncertain number of haircuts. Probably means somewhere around where you were last time unless you have to fight Hurley if he claims it first. |

I'll be there all week. Was hoping to find a last minute ride in Conti. I'm usually around T3! Use to camp but go home at night now to start fresh the next day. Lol

Good luck on finding a ride. You should stop by and say hello to us at Turn 4. Not sure how to describe us, but sometimes we have a flag pole, a pop up trailer, a couple Ram trucks, a well loved Mazda and a Honda of some type.
