            Guess what!!?? I have finally acquired a decent piece of Corian to build on and for boat setup. From KW Countertops, a nice lady named Lee Anne arranged to get me a nice flat piece approx. 14" wide and 24" long, nice and flat! Only $20 compared to a $240 quote from Home depot.... Now that's mark up!

            Ken, thank you very much for your offer but, it's not really necessary at this time. If you have already gone ahead with something, it could made a nice door prize again. Thank you for reaching out and trying to help me. All you guys are great! Cheers... better get building then!

              I used to make Corian tops, the little fabrication shops always have scrap pieces laying around. They would rather make a buck than have it sitting around piling up or throwing it away.

                12 hours, 780 miles and I'll be driving Friday if we (me, my lovely bride, and the pooch) can pull this off.
                Not racing Fri. cuts me down to LSH, P Mono, 1/8 Scale and T mono.

                I need to take a look at the rules. Is 12,000 ma an issue in the T class?

                How do the Elks feel about a small dog with no bad habits being on the deck with it's owner?
                Any RV places near by?

                  12,000 ma for T is NAMBA legal .

                  In the past the Elks have allowed on site camping including RVs but electrical hook-up may be an issue . The Elks usually allow us to use their facilities during the night.

                  Not sure as to the small dog on the deck .

                      Are there going to be the monster generators there this year like at the Nats?

                          I had our dog with us on Sunday at the Nats last year. Just bring poop bags. The one race I am going to miss, Doug Smock decides to attend? Absolutely Redonkulous.

                            Doug, awesome. The word "relentless" comes to mind. Does anyone know what a cabana boy outfit would look like? I may be wearing one. Comes with a large quantity of barf bags I hope.

                            12k? How could you guys not know this? You know the rule book is available free of charge on the NAMBA website right? Page 96.

                            John, I'm not sure on the gennies. Had to beg and borrow those last year. We might have a couple but I wouldn't rely on that as an absolute.

                              I told you I would sabotage your best friends wedding if you needed me too. Where's the bachelorette party? I'll bring my cabana boy getup. She'll swear off men forever.
