Gus, one of those motors is good enough for me. I do know one person who was VERY interested in mine. I'll let you have this one Gus.

BOING!:eyepop: I'm awake now!
Chris, lets talk about the M2200 Skidmark. I will be there from Sat. noon till close and all day Sunday.

Lets just say....i'm very interested.....

If a young man comes up to you named "Manny"...shoo him away and tell him to go back to his Taylor Swift scrapbooks....

Thanks for the heads up Jason, i was outside mowing and missed your call.....i'm trying to freshen up the place before good friends of the family (The Ballestero Clan) show up bringing "The Gonzo One" with them....

Manny.....if you need a place to stay over the weekend....you'll leave Uncle Gus alone on this one......Crystal?

It's OFFICIAL..... I will be there.!!!!!!

Did not know for sure.... sure ,till yesterday.

Looking forward to flying with all the "usual suspects" :grin:



CJ
 
Too all the club members and volunteers who will be out at "The Grove" today getting the equipment set up........thank-you.
From your humble President who has 1200 miles to go in his semi to get home.
 
Gus, on behalf of all the volunteers today, you're welcome. We all just want to help make the event great for everyone.

Manny
 
And if you are sitting on the fence about attending, the weather report from weather.com looks absolutely fantastic for Saturday and Sunday - 60s to 80s, not more than a 20% chance of precip, sun, and winds from 8 - 12 mph.

Well, the prep day went well. We got all of the away cell pads set up and a couple close pads. Although, we were only able to clear the E bank of corn stubble. So sparkies will be limited.

Manny
 
Manny,

I have a customer emergency tomorrow, so my "day off" is now shot. I'm negotiating with my wife to take two of the kids for a Saturday launch. She's a good negotiator, but hopefully I'll prevail :>

Chris

Preston, I will trade you a pound of cheese curds for an on your honor "Non combative clause" on the M2200.:D

"Then things got ugly.......both Preston and Gus were having a tug-o-war with a liner......yelling MINE....MINE.....and, curds were being tossed very forcibily!"

I'm really looking forward too finally meeting you on Saturday.
Take care....Gus.

Hey Chris, good news; we have 12 pads cleared out for skids. With the light rain the field is getting tonight, bring on the skids! CJ says hey back.

The rest of the range is ready to go. See you all there tomorrow!
 
Well, I'm going to be a little tired today, Gus Piepenburgs house is the creepiest place ive ever slept........
 
I'm actually not going to be there today,I was about 20 minutes from the field when I saw a tire flying through the air, then I realized it was off of my truck......so close. I'll still be there tomorow.

Yikes. I am sure your "realization" of the tire missing was pretty exciting.
 
Yeah, it ripped through the body panel too so that was a pleasant surprise.....
