No Pressure. Lets just go out there, and have some fun. Winning always comes easier if you're having fun.

Matty and I have offered to run a pit. Unfortunately Matty will be deported right after the race weekend, so if any of you want to say goodbye to him, that will be your last chance.
Yes, INS has caught up with him and they have decided that Salt Lake City is where he belongs.

 

[GSequoia]

They must have decided he was so blonde he must be a Mormon.

I'll have to try to hook up with him next time I visit my SLC office.

Ive never been to johnson valley/koh and im curious about a few things-

-whats the food situation gonna be like? im sure there will be vendors but im assuming i should bring food for myself. i plan on being out there for the whole event and eating strictly from vendors might get expensive
-how close/far will we be to civilization? in case i run out of food/gas/money or anything?
-and there will be some kind of bathrooms there ya? haha


thanks. sorry for the dumbness lol just wanna make sure

For food, bring whatever you need to survive for as long as you will be out there.
Yes, there is food available for purchase. Last year there was a hotdog/hamburger vendor and a coffee trailer. It does get expensive and they may not be open when you are hungry or thirsty.

Civilization is Landers for gas and a minimart, and Yucca Valley for big stores and auto parts. Use "King of the Hammers" as a location in GoogleMaps and you can see the distances.

There are portapotties in several areas around Hammertown. The company that services them does the best they can under the circumstances but theres no guarantee that the people before you had any amount of decency when they relieved themselves. They are hit and miss. Id at least bring your own supplies, rv tp and some cleaning wipes could save yer ass. :moon:

They are hit and miss.

I dunno, I'd say miss and hit.

Any Chance for some wheeling while we are there?

 

[boostamante]

Any chance you guys need a brown guy at any of the pits? I've already asked for thursday/ friday off. Planning on getting there Weds in the afternoon.

 

[JohnX]

I really wish I had a "normal" job with vacation days.

There's no law to cut, but if you bring your leaf blower, you can keep the sand off of the tarps.
