Park rules only require one point. I only have my factory tow hook up front, rear bumper is not worth anything on mine. Ask (92Toy). Heck I might even take it off, if I could find out whether or not this thing had a bumper from the factory. P.O. put an 89-95 bumper bracket and a FEY step bumper on. Not sure if it even had it or it was in the bed, because the bed that was on it had the Lic plate frame integrated with it.

You will however need a tow/recovery strap one with loops no hooks. If I had to do it again, I woulda bought a recovery strap and not the tow strap I have now.

picked up two more looks like 8 so far. good turn out. I will be there Friday night and will try to meet everybody outside of the park office, first thing in the morning. Rememebr group name is YotaTech. I believe the only other one that will be there Friday night is Lumpy and Lumpy +1, but are not staying camping at the park.

I got to thinking and the channel I would like to use unless it's crowded at the park when we get there and start to wheel is channel 2. I don't know if it's me or inherent to the channels, but I get less static on lower channels than higher ones.

Please if you are running a linear or "BIG RADIO" like me, turn it off/down when you get to the park. I don't wanna see anyone's radio get fried. Not funny, have seen it happen.

park opens at 8. I would like to get going onto the trails probably no later than 9. What time you get out of work etc. How far away are you from the park?

if it's cool w/ xtreme why don't we all send our #s to him, an he can send them out to every one. That would be easier that every one sending them to every one. Or i'll do it but seems like xtreme is the organizer...

OMG!!! organized......????!!!!

my plans for now are to leave here early saturday morning to arrive there around 730ish....planning on finding LUMPY and meeting him wherever he is staying and arrive with him and his +1.

i wake up super early every day so if i say i'm leaving here at 5am it's no big deal. i told XXXTREME i would happily be the 1st a-hole there to wake everyone up.......hahahahha

still trying to figure out child-watching duty for covering my 8yr old who will NOT be coming...my wife is working that weekend too.....so , that's not really and issue right now, but may determine if we come Friday night or saturday morning.
