Caravan leaving Denver area on May 18th

[svochuck]

Well I did not see anyone start this so here goes...
for those of us leaving on the 18th how about we start a caravan. I thinking we meet kind of up north of denver maybe just past ERIE (on I-25) at the new truck stop. depart the truck stop around 9:00am (ish) anytime in the am is good for me but 9:00 would let others from down south join in. keep in touch with frs radios/cellphones. I won't be setting any speed records with gas at 3.00+ per gallon.

so who's in ? what are you driving/pulling ? any extra needs ?

Kind of like this

I'm in Chuck Taylor + wife (Jen) + 3 kids.
Driving a E-350 (Ford 1 ton Van with a V10) towing a 36' enclosed trailer. special needs ... 3 kids so might need to make an extra rest stop. towing speed (55 mph).

sound good ?

I'd be in, but I can't drive 55! ;) Really, my truck pulls much better at 65, but I'll try to hang for a little while.

Rick + Joy (girlfriend)
F250 + 18" open trailer w/ one car
No special needs that I can think of right now

Revkah and I *plan* to leave Wednesday night so we can be at the track to start setting up Thursday afternoon. We'll save everyone a parking space :rolleyes:!!!

If I can get my car together and go to MMP I will start with you guys but my rig likes 80-85mph(or 10 over the posted) so anyone wanting to pull with the freight train is welcome to follow.

PS If i go there is a good chance that i will be able to procure a 2 place and would be able to take someones car for the price of fuel..............about half the cost of having Kyle pull your rig.

How long does it take a fourteen INCH car to get around a 4.5 mile track???:p

Reminds me of the Stonehenge stage prop in the movie This is Spinal Tap... they wanted an 18' model of Stonehenge and wound up with a 18" model... but I digress...

Hahahahahaha, funny!

Chuck is going to be so mad when he sees what we did with his thread.... :rolleyes:

great timing Rick i told Jen "they hijacked my thread" then i read your post....

as for speed it's all good. If we know who is going we can still look out for each other ... I could also leave 35 minutes early and just plan on yall catching up half way.

speed kills... at the gas pump.
arrive with beer money ... drive 55
