Sterling- you bringing the griddle/fry pan? I can squeeze one in if need be.I'm throwing in a pot to boil water, cook beans etc.. I assume if we are doing corn on the cob- we'll wrap it in foil and cook in the coals..

So far the main stuff for me is two tents (one can accomodate 5 maybe 6, a two person tent, and a bivy sack (if someone wants to sleep outside but protected. That's enough for say 8 (comfortably). Plus all the misc gear I mentioned before.

Don't forget sleeping pads if you want them.

Also- if someone has a clean tarp (for under the big tent) that would be great. All of mine are covering split wood and equipment.

(Speaking of wood- I wonder if we can buy split wood there?)

ok, looks like Tom has us covered for teh most part. I plan on bringing some kind of caffiene free soda (for me) but can also bring other soda/drinks as well, since I plan to bring them in a large cooler.
If I understand the plan, me and bizarro are gonna get there early to secure our site, then go out and buy food, if thats the case it doesn't seem like we need to bring a whole lot.
It seems like we're pretty set in the way of eating, but the one thing I'm not sure on bringing is wax, glass cleaner etc in order to detail teh car before hand. I detailed it today, but it might rain before sunday. Are you guys gonna bring your stuff in order to give it a touchup sunday morning?

Oh, man, I wish I had the rex running in time to make it there! I mean, it's possible, but not bloody likely. Not to mention I'd want it running very reliably, since I'd have to drive across MOST OF THE COUNTRY to get there!
Is it always in the same place, every year? If so, then, hellzah, I'll be there next year for sure! I'm a road going type, so I can get y'alls covered on carout/campouts! YEEAH!
See you there next year for damn sure (Gauruntee does not apply in case of Apocolypse)
Peace

My list
real forks
griddle & cooking utensils
extra small tent
one small foam mat
citraneela candles
bug spray
anything anyone's carburetor might need
tools

If I have as much room as I think, I'll get my pop to cut up old oak plank for firewood (no chemicals in it) - It'll stack nicely in my car and not leave alot of **** all over the carpet.
Maybe someone can do the same so we have enough?
(You CAN NOT use pressure treated, or ANY treated wood!!!)
Wood for the fire is going to cost alot! What do you guys got down in Jersey, like four er five trees?

My car care kit has the following:
mothers carnuba wax
applicators
buffing cloths
armor all wipes
california duster (works great- just like 'AS SEEN ON TV!!)

The only thing I don't have is windex (all out at the house).

However- my car is not that a show car or heavily modded so I doubt I'll even use this stuff.

I might be ale to throw a few nice 'logs' in the back of the rex. Let's see- with 2 passengers and gear- I might be hauling around 450lbs!!

Oh and Sterling- glad you're bringin your carb stuff- I'm throwing the modded Nikki in as well. I've been swamped with clients and loans this week (as I figured).
It's gonna be nice to get away for a couple of days (my clients even bug me at home on the weekends..)

Gee, Tom- Don't you think you're doing enough already?
Why should you go even further and mess up your interior?

Lemme bring the wood. I'll probably have the dogliest car there!
(It may be the ugliest, but it'll the fastest carbed stockport there! )

TICK TOCK TICK TOCK...!!!

The time is almost here...any last questions? Any late entries? Make sure you bring extra cash for souveniers at the show...but also to help payback for the reservation and the groceries we'll be picking up.

Hey Sterling...the camp trip is TOMORROW!
