We may need to get Erick to swing by and swap out his camping for Tony's and then if he comes friday-sat he can get in. And the Erick has the pass.

I have 317, Tony has 318 and you have 319?

I just threw some new waterproofing on my heavier raincoat. Might pick up some new boots before i leave as well.

Do you want me to bring anything like charcoal or other consumables? How about another camp stove or propane?

The last two years of lists. No idea how I've actually kept them but found them today while cleaning the office....

Ah, thought they went up but once again I’m wrong. That happens often, see college football thread for proof. Tony must have 315

Keeping your list is for amateurs, wing it and realize you didn’t bring any long pants when it’s 35, more fun that way. Charcoal would be good. I actually need some for home too myself. Weekend sale and extra points at Ace means more lump on discount.

Have a tank for the grill and 10lb propane tank for the stove I’m not bringing a fryer so taters with Friday dinner will be grilled baby potatoes.

I'm bringing a propane tank for the heater. Y'all know I'm like a snake in at least one way and am pretty worthless below 60F.

I'm going to bring the trailer and gear up on Tuesday but unfortunately, have to work on Monday now, so it's going to be a cluster as usual. I'll be in touch.

Ok I'll pack some extra burnable things to cook with.

I have to work mon and Tues and do all my shopping and it is my daughter's bday Tuesday. I think packing in small bits at a time is worse than getting everything together at once.

broadrun96 · 6 Nov 2021, 01:21 (Ref:4081743)

No worries, I'm there and already on vacation mode here. Well after 2 markets this weekend with Morgan, then vacation mode but no more emails is nice.

**Adam43** · 6 Nov 2021, 03:24 (Ref:4081755)

I’ve been packing the car. It’s going to be a squeeze to get everything in. I’d offer to bring some charcoal, but no room. Still have interesting beer. Went to a brewery tonight and got some more. Reminded Dad to get some good stuff on duty free.

Got blummin’ scouts tomorrow. Scouting for food, followed by a den meeting where I teach them how to make a camp fire. More up for pottering in the garage.

broadrun96 · 6 Nov 2021, 15:37 (Ref:4081801)

Market today is 45 degrees with a wind, and holy crap that's NOT comfy temps at all

**Adam43** · 6 Nov 2021, 17:58 (Ref:4081823)

I’d take what we’ve had here. 55 no wind.

broadrun96 · 6 Nov 2021, 18:06 (Ref:4081824)

A soon as the market started, overcast with a wind, as soon as it ended, bright sun and light breeze. Effin cold

And just think how smart we'll all be come Sunday morning

**Adam43** · 6 Nov 2021, 18:36 (Ref:4081826)

Einstein, we’re coming to get ya.

In my mind’s eye Cliff and Norm are always on the other side of the bar.

broadrun96 · 7 Nov 2021, 02:29 (Ref:4081906)

Somehow the forecast is getting better and worse each day, starts bad and gets better by the end of the day. And weirdly warmer at the track than in the city at the house, but also colder at night so that's fun.

**Adam43** · 7 Nov 2021, 02:50 (Ref:4081908)

This is a comedy theory.

When weather forecasts change it’s normally that the weather happens earlier than previously forecast. Let’s have those showers on Tuesday!

Car is mostLy packed. Not much room for anything else.

I can handle cold and dry much easier than cold and wet. Also the race would be more enjoyable in the sun on Saturday.

I need to get serious about packing. I'm taking my wife's CX-5 so I can't pack till she gets home from work Tuesday.

I will cut you for saying rain Tuesday sir

**Adam43** · 7 Nov 2021, 19:24 (Ref:4082002)

Er, a different Tuesday. Tuesday after, a random unimportant Tuesday in May.

broadrun96 · 7 Nov 2021, 20:27 (Ref:4082014)

I don't want rain Tuesday or Saturday evening/Sunday. Once setup it's tolerable if needed, but during setup?

RX7Mandingo · 7 Nov 2021, 21:49 (Ref:4082039)

How strict are the gate people? I have a friend planning on coming up Thursday night getting there around 9 or 10. The problem is he only has a two day ticket, though he does have a camping pass. Will the gate people make a fuss if he tries getting in Thursday night around 9 or 10

broadrun96 · 7 Nov 2021, 21:59 (Ref:4082041)

I think after the days activities are over he's possibly clear to enter. But I would expect he'll be SOL until Friday morning to get in most likely, especially with night practice Thursday.

I’d take us setting up in the rain rather than you. That’s how magnanimous I am

We have one tent that is easy peasy. Our main problem is the beer is buried deep in the car.

Oh, there will be camp arrival beer if needed. Generally IPAs but you won't have to dig to crack the first one.

Better make it before 6, getting fairly dim here at 6 pm tonight

**Adam43** · 7 Nov 2021, 23:10 (Ref:4082061)

It’ll be a lunch beer

I was going to ask about darkening times. There is a chance I can make it there in time depending on pre peach pass lane traffic.

Also, did you say there was a new Popeyes somewhere?
