Good deal!
Do we have powr at our staging area? Hope so---we can bring fans!
SOunds like it will be fun at the trailer park.
Wife is having a "girls w/e " with a bunch of her old redneck college girlfriends so she will not be there but says Hi and will send goodies!
I will have drinks , ice chest, food and a boat horn to get everyone up in the morning. Yall have never stayed with GeezerDad before!
I can bring moonshine if people so desire--but I would advise agaisnt. Its legal stuff and too good. But, if enough wants I will do so.
As far as shuffle steering and heel to toeing and other such fancy driving stuff. I say do whatever the hell it takes to go fast. No matter how it looks no 2 laps are the same. Heck i have been know to shuffle toe the pedals and knee steer the wheel.

Couple of Questions

I have a couple of questions regarding your list. Can you explain *** (on the menu)? Also, why do we need to bring pasties (Will there be lap dancing or something at breakfast)?

Supply list:

*If you have a favorite pillow, teddy bear, or blankie, bring it.
*Bring lots and lots of water. It's gonna be warm and you'll need it for brushing your teeth and such.
*There are showers near the tower, bring what you need for that.
*Condiments
*Paper plates, napkins, and utensils (I have some but depending on how many show each night, I my run out).
*Buns (for the brats and ***)
*Chips, snacks, baked beans (we have a stove)and/or anything else to go with the brats and ***, as well as munch on.
*Breakfast stuff (donuts, cereal, pasties, sausage biscuit's, easy stuff)
*Sandwich stuff (meats, bread, etc) if we choose to eat lunch at the lodge.
*BYOB - beer, scotch, bourbon, soft-drinks, etc.......
*I only have three or four chairs, so you may want to bring one as well.

okay...I corrected the missing "r".....

*** came from last years BBQ.....I cooked it, then put in in the camper's refrig. Someone opened the door and commented that it smelled like *** in the refrigerator......so, the name has morphed a little...but it's just another name we have given pork BBQ.....

I have a Honda generator and was thinking of doing that. I want to keep a fan blowing on my engine. There would be plenty of power for everyone I'm sure. Now, if I can just figure out how to get it there???

I think I have a new handle for her: Fast-N-Hot

Unfortunately, since she was in a borrowed ride it may have been a one shot deal..

Too bad for those who missed it, she was quite quite an eye-full in a half peeled-off driver suit

Now I'am going to Hell!

I will Bring:

Assorted snacks and a chips and dip combo
Beer
Scotch
Ca$H (For gas)

I almost started with...."well, there's this track chick that drives a white M3....."

But I figured that would be harder to explain as you really had to be there for the moment she slowly and methodically peeled that damn suit off........

Woohoo!!......Seven more days......

The "Chateau Zoom" tenant list...

TA2
OD

Daily Reminder:

I'm bringing the Chateau, Brats, five or six pounds of *** (with sauce), and a gallon or two of ready made rita's (along with a GIANT bottle of Tylenol, just in case). I have some blankets and pillows. I'll have the giant cooler full of ice and I have a grill. I'll have a bottle of ear plugs as well. Everyone will have their own bed. There is no water hookup at the track, but we will have a porti-unit near us.

Needed Supply list:

*If you have a favorite pillow, teddy bear, or blankie, bring it.
*Bring lots and lots of water. It's gonna be warm and you'll need it for brushing your teeth and such.
*There are showers near the tower, bring what you need for that.
*Condiments
*Paper plates, napkins, and utensils (I have some but depending on how many show each night, I my run out).
*Buns (for the brats and ***)
*Chips, snacks, baked beans (we have a stove)and/or anything else to go with the brats and ***, as well as munch on.
*Breakfast stuff (donuts, cereal, pastries, sausage biscuit's, easy stuff)
*Sandwich stuff (meats, bread, etc) if we choose to eat lunch at the lodge.
*BYOB - beer, scotch, bourbon, soft-drinks, etc.......
*I only have three or four chairs, so you may want to bring one as well.

For those of you not staying, you are welcome to join us each day after the track activities. I think we've invited the world...they may not all show, but they were invited. The gates close at 9 or 10 and open at 6:30 or 7:00 (I think). Those of you staying, the best bet is after your last event, shower and head on up the hill. The showers are full in the am so plan accordingly.

The plan (we all know how that goes) is for me to head out with the lodge and be at the track late morning/early afternoon. Not that I'll be able to set up yet, but at least try to not have to deal with the traffic from hell at early rush hour. If Jim manages to talk the track folks into letting us in a little sooner, I'll head up the hill and start getting set up.

It's hard to believe it's been more than a year since we last did this......I can't wait!!



I'm sure I've missed something, but usually at least one of us brings the missing

You left off Binoculars for Fast-N-Hot.

I'll bring:

• Paper plates, napkins, and utensils (any left over you keep for next trip)
• Buns (for the brats and ***)
• Water in bottles (Case or two)
