Alec:  you are coming in on Sunday.  I am going to be at DFW airport on Sunday.  Can I meet you for coffee?

Sorry Jacob but we arrived at DFW on the Friday, stayed in Dallas that night then picked up the RV Saturday and drove north to Lake Ray Roberts like Eric said.

Ken met us there on Sunday and we all drove up to Hallet together.

We would have loved to have met up with you is we'd been able to.[/quote]
No problem!  :)

Fantastic that you and Ken got to convoy together to Hallet!  You guys are going to have a ton of fun!

If you are up to it, how about a meet-up on your return to DFW?  If not, that is totally fine with me.  I remember after AtomFest I, I was totally tired out.

Lost my ice chest between Temple and Wakko (tailgate popped open ::) ). Hope the 30 cans of soda splattering across the hammer lane did some damage to the friggin Honda that had been pacing my tailgate  :doh: for those last 30 miles.   ;D I know I didn't see him again.

Alec is staying at a RV park up near Denton tonight. We should be outta here by 2PM tomorrow at the absolute latest. Alec wanted to hit a decent grocery store along the way. I'm already in Dallas, just had a CFS at Snookies Bar & Grille in Highland Park a couple of blocks from his place. Good food.

Alec is staying up near Sanger at Lake Ray Roberts tonight. Sorry, I'm not sure which RV park but Ken (Driver) knows.

I'll try not to think of the fun you're having while I'm busy working.  ;)

Although commissioning brand new plant can have its own kind of adrenaline attachment.

So Peter, in other words your preparations are going normal? That's what I'm reading there. :)

The big question is - do you have a good alternator on the rig you're driving?  ;)

Well, let's see....on Monday I went dow the street for a test run and the bonnet fell off. Went under the front wheel and got basically trashed. $500 of repair and I pick up tonight and they repair guy got the color wrong. Last night, re-torquing the rear axle nuts I found one jammed. By the time it came off with the help of a 6' cheater bar and Map Gas, the axle threads were totally ruined. 2am calls to Ariel UK and them to TMI sourced a new axle/driveshaft. did get the current one fixed today by way of total dissassembly of the shaft and turning the CV joint end on a lathe and re- threading it. All done by Hytech. That man is not only an  :angel:, he is a genius and can make or fix anything perfectly. Thank you John...once again for dropping everything to help my sorry arse out of another pickle :-*

Been waiting on tires for a week and they are not here yet. Finally arranged to get a set to pick up on my way out of OC to Barstow where I am scheduled to pick up Atomgirl.

Go to hook up the trailer 1 hour ago and find that I have "lost" my heavy duty receiver off my truck. :doh:



I do have plenty of good wine and food packed though ;D

We won't have our old sold Atom but my wife and I, and best friend Jason will be there from Monday afternoon serving as volunteers and helping hands.  That is me coming sloppily out of the B**** at Hallet.  Hallet is such a fun track!
