:lolly: Thats funny, that happens quite often. I doubt it, id like to, but i dont see me getting done with the truck till late march early april.
 
getting closer. Jordan, they surely changed the goofy rule that we can't trailer the trucks in ? I think it was last year we had to unload outside and drive in. Thats a pain. Looking forward to pulling with ya'll in the 2.6 class this year.
 
Last year at the indoor pull we hauled them in. It was the summer outdoor pull we had to unload outside the gate
 
I thought it was the indoor pull that we had to unload outside the gate. I guess i really do have CRS, ( cant remember s**t ) Hope i can remember how to get to Sturgis.
 
Just got this from Shane, has had several phone call's on rules etc. So he asked me to post this for him.
