Looking questionable for me, I made two promises to customers and it looks like they are calling them in from 19 April - 6 May...

On the plus side, when I get home from that trip I will be (mostly) retired.

Evening all, looks like I missed this thread.

Who's ready for some races?? We will have racing that is more structured than last year with a trailer and all. I want all of you to know it won't interfear with the test of the gtg and we will be out of the way. We just came home from Hedgefest and Hailey is ready to get up on the trailer again. Looking forward to seeing you all again!

Hey guys...new member here in the CR/Iowa City area. Just found this forum and loving it already. I'm very curious and interested in this event. Is there any cost to get in or anything of that nature? Just a bunch of chainsaw guys that race cutting logs as well? I've never heard of this event but would like to attend on Friday...

Friday afternoon is a good time, we are usually still setting up or sawing cants and such. We will have a bathroom on site and some refrigerator room. Welcome to the site and the thread.
