Hey, be grateful for what ya got. Good luck out there. It'd be nice to see you win after traveling so far. TyTy 05-23-2002, 07:30 AM Originally posted by four_by_ken Only good for 2/3?

But, come on... he knew where the competition was and it was not going to be cheap to get here. Should not have been a surprise. Ken H.

Frog sounds like just because he wants to go to TTC that folks should step up and pay his bill, come on ... if *I* wanted to go i'd likely have to pay 100% of it myself as do most of the competitors why should he be any different ... - jack four_by_ken 05-23-2002, 07:43 AM Just what I am getting at. There have been competitors from the other side of the country. They trailered their shit all the way across the country to get there. Footed the bill all them selves. They knew what it was going to cost from the start. Mind you, not $15k worth. But, what do you expect to pay?!?!? I would give my money to MudTruck before I goave to the Frog. he built his own stuff with his own MONEY. And he is getting there. From reading the posts here, I hope MudTruck kicks some major ass in the competition. Sorry if I got your name wrong. Ken H. Originally posted by morpheus I'm with ya Ken.

Hell, it cost 1000 bucks to truck a vehicle across country, flying a BEAST like the frog cost 10K I bet! Frog's part was probably near 15K..... welndmn 05-23-2002, 10:41 AM Why are you flying into LA? Hollister is about a 2 hour drive south from S.F? If you want to get some beers or just shoot the shit E_mail me welndmn@yahoo.com Or i will see you there, i will be with Tim | |
