What are you using for a drivers stand? It will have to be pretty high in order to get visibility over that big jump in the middle there and big enough to fit 10 or so guys at a time.

Ya the tower will be big enough. I just got a bunch of 5 gallon pails to stand on. I have to charge extra if you wanna go 2 pails high though. hahaha.

Bummer about the Sask boys. Maybe next year.

I can see it now highest bidder gets 2 pails... lol

If I can make it up there I will pit for you no problem. Just not sure if I have to work or not. May have to just go on Sunday. (coming from Calgary) If I can't make it I am sure you can swap duties with somebody else. Not everyone is going to bring a buddy that is not racing in the same class.

Ya guys feel free to give me a call when you get to town. FYI we'll be pitting on the east side of the building so please drive around back to the east side and enter there. There will be double doors beside some big tents, just hual yur stuff in there and you'll see where everyone is pitted.

Went and checked the dirt tonight. It is so hot in there that it has dried the clay out so much that it is real lumpy. Lots of watering and packing will get it smooth like butta. Got some great ideas for track layout and jumps. Get ready for some air boys. 403-358-2770

Delmo - just ran a check on the computer, TX's, printer etc. Everything good to go... we need the following:

1 big box fanfold paper
Thin speaker wire (for the loop)
Spare ribbon for a Panasonic KX-P1180 dot matrix

See everyone tomorrow.
