Did you get my payment? PayPal was giving me some trouble yesterday, I had to try it 3 times but finally got a confirmation. Do me a favor and check to make sure you only recieved 1 payment from me.

Ahmad, Not to make you job any more difficult, but would it be possible for you to post what state or region of the country each of the paid attendees is coming from next to their names? I think this might be helpful for people who want to caravan and make the trek in a group rather than by themself. On that note, any west coast guys confirmed yet?

FWI; For any Chicago or midwest guys planning on attending. My plan is to leave on Thursday the 13th between 3:00pm and 4:00pm and drive to about Cleveland. I am trailering my car behind my Renegade hauler. I will have room and will gladly haul your tools, extra wheels/tires, axles etc. free of charge, please contact me if intersted. I want to have anything I am bringing loaded up earlier that week.

Thanks, Very helpful, but I think Andy/MHP lives in Ohio (I think)

Wow, looks like the midwest is very well represented with 5 out of 12 coming from Illinois and Michigan.

I'd be in for sure if there was some sort of elimination type ladder or direct competition format. I love hanging out and making passes and all, but to drive all the way there to just make passes seems less stimulating to me. How about an extra $25 per person as an option to run in the "shootout" and go from there? Even if 4 people enter, that's a full tank of good gas to the winner. Who would be in?...A few people I can think of that would enter and engage in a contest....

I'll pony up for that, even though there's no question I'll get beat down by a 600/65.
