March Meet 2013- Roll Call ?

There is nothing like being there, but if you are like "mopacltd" (& others) and don't like the crowds or the bad sunburn or any of the other fun stuff that comes with this awesome event..... you can always watch the live feed on www.bangshift.com They do a Great job !!!

 

I need to smell feel touch and the cars to .....

 

Pending the conditions you may get some real good smells!!
There is a compost mixing pad just to the east side of the fence line.
Usually wind drifts it away.
But you can get can get all the noise , burning rubber and all the others joys to go around.

And also roasting Ham all day Friday at my place.
HAMBrs welcome

 

I'll be there Wed to Sunday, shooting the event w/ media credentials.

 

Looks good, May take you up on the offer, my son and i getting in on thursday.

 

Will be rt behind you,, where are you stayin?

 

Ill be there for the first time this year.

 

We should do a meet and greet ?? What do you think

 

I think I saw on here that it had been tried before with out much success for it is so large and spread out and so much happening.
Maybe Acme Speed Shop will chime in for he is usually rigged up at Ground Zero in the Vendor section. They had one at GNRS

I would offer to host at my bar, but only people with 4 day pass can get in the spectator camping area.

But if we get enuff takers we can use my spot.

 

I bought a 3 day pass is that ok ?

 

I'm not sure?
They just started that couple years ago. Was not enforced much at first.
I dont see why it should matter if you showed up on Friday with a 3 day pass why you could not get in.
You can see here http://tickets.thefoat.com/FamosoRaceway/event-365/March+Meet+2013/ camping pass " occupants" must have 4 day pass?
That would be for people going in on Thursday?

 

Oh ok I see .. See you there !!

 

So far weather looks like showers. Hope it passes before Saturday.

 

I checked in with the rain gods and told em the only showers allowed are during track clean ups

 

30% for Friday Only thats 70% no rain I like the odds

 

Yep. Count me in.

 

I dont know what to change it to but I wish they would change that. I would love to camp inside but not gonna pay for full pass for my wife to come out one night and a day.
They check pass's everyday at every gate

 

Heading out tomorrow early afternoon. DSLR and Video cameras cleared of previous event stuff, batteries charged and ready for the 4 days. Camping with two friends. None of us have been, so it will be awesome.

 

My Flight leaves in 31.2 hours

 

A small prayer for eternal sunshine in the land of almonds, the mecca of all things nitropolis. The pilgrimage begins.......

 

I was just told they are rained out till Saturday. I hope that's not true.

 

friday might be a wet day the rest looks fairly good. They dont usually call it till the water wins out so I dought they have called anything.

 

Anybody there yet?? Hoping this rain passes today

 

That was a tough go, being out there for six days, three of which was in the dirt and mud... Might have to re-think it for next year....

 

I don't blame ya. Weather always a Big Iffy at the March Meet. You just never know?

 

Last year was amazing, this year the mud bogs....Ill better check weather before I go next year

 

Rain or Shine the Pig Roast went on





And out view from the Sky Box was cool.

 

Our Camp Sky Box view. Hamber Barrel Nose Pickup from Oz stopped by for a view

The new camper enjoyed its first trip to Famoso

 

Darnnit ! Missed the pig roast again ! After having to park in the middle of Lake Famoso on the East side of the track ,then having three grandaughters with muddy wet feet to listen to--I find out I can't get there without the proper pass. Live and learn I guess. I figured that was you guys up on the scissorslift ! Despite the conditions we still had fun, left early on Sat., back to the hotel to change clothes and off to the Crystal Palace, Kids had a great time and danced to some pretty good music. Sunday seemed almost deserted but ran into Pop Bradford and Randy " the kid" Bradford and had a great visit with mighty good people. I'm making plans for CHRR .

 

Sorry I missed you and the roast but I was so busy looking at stuff I never made over to the camp ground side I dorve back forth twice from my hotel on friday to see if any thing was going on but it rained out so I had to make up Saturday what I would of done Friday I slept about 20 hours ! since being back I got wore out had a great time but I am going to try the HRR next year.
