Brad i'll have my two trucks running up there. so you can have me down for two trucks. i'll help with whatever you need of me. i just want these clods running at this show for years to come. if it wasn't for this show i wouldn't have the trucks i have today. so you can count me in!:tmb


btw as far as radio frq. goes will i be limited? cause i'm running my backup am radio and a hitec fm radio. i take it that will be taken care of day of show but i was just curious
Hey Derek, the frequencies I remember us being allowed to use on the monster truck track for the past 2 years were FM 61, 81, 83, & 86, and ch. 6 (Blue) for 27 MHz AM. I'm not sure if those will be the same for this year though...

Brad, you can add my name to the roll call list for monster truck drivers. I plan on having 3 performing trucks there and my retro for display.

I'll check on the freq's but that sounds right.
So far for racers that said they could make it at least a day or two are:

Dan W.
Vince J. ?
Phil G.
Josh R.
Derek D.
Kevin L.
Chris K.
Eric M.
Bart M.
Mark D.
Terry P.
Andrew P.


We will need more racers than this so start calling around if know anyone else that might like to come.
I'll also need to know what days each of you will be there and who can help with setup on Wed the 21st.

Sat & Sun are the important days. Show opens @ 9 on Thurs & Fri and @10 on Sat & Sun. Its good to get in at least 1/2 hour before the doors open for the public, preferably an hour early to get bats charged and make repairs ect.

Thurs & Fri we may have to pull double duty on the Pulling & Monster tracks to have enough for a show if can't get a few more drivers for those days.

I can help with the racing. I race 1/10 stadium truck regularly and 1/8 buggy and truggy now and again. Many time track champion with 1/10 touring car. Probably can make fool of myself pretty good driving a monster truck.

Sorry Brad but I may have to pull out. Ill let you know for sure this coming week or not. I'll be available to help setup the track and such but I am not sure if Ill be able to run a truck or not. I may be working another booth. Not sure yet I have to wait on the word from this company if they want me at the booth.
