well here are the days activities. im going to try and make this gtg a little different than my usual gtg.
were going to have plenty of wood for everyone to cut cookies on,all different sizes and species of wood for long bars and short bars,big saws and small saws,old saws and new saws.

this year i plan to have lots of square wood to race in. we will be having races all day long. i plan to have stock saw,stock appearing gas,stock appearing alky,pipe saw,stock chain races,race chain on stock saw races,3,4,5,cube races,open hot saw. you name it we will race it,got a rooster and a saddle we'll race it. this will be cold start ,hot start on ground,hot start over the wood,you name it..if stumpy wants to race in a thong we'll let him.lol anyone that plans to join in the races will need to buy in to help pay for the cants. id say $10 per person to cover the cants.

this year instead of everyone bringing food or us grilling we will be ordering pizza.we will charge $5 per head for food and drink. i think that would be fair. there will be bottled water on ice all day for every one to drink included in the $5.

i will be getting a circus tent again this year for us to get out of the sun or rain . i will be setting up one circus tent over the top of the wood for the cant racing ,so that we can race, rain or shine all day long.anyone that has pop up tents can set it up if they want.

anyone that wants to come early and camp out is welcome. we usually have a bon fire and food the night before. adult beverages are allowed night before gtg and after gtg.ABSOLUTELTY NOT DURING THE GTG.

i hope everyone that wants to attend can make it a point to come and join in this years fun.
 
Ya'll are killing me with these threads! I might have to break down and make the drive:hmm3grin2orange:
 
Well I was interested until ''Stumpy'' and ''thong'' was in the same sentence :laugh:!

How many drive links on the chain races? My square ground would probably suck for a race chain, but I'd like to give it a whirl.

I'm up for a chain race too......if I get time to work one over.
