If its a Tent, ill also bring as much firewood as I can fit in the bed so we dont have to go visit that old dude on the side of the road in the dark house =)

          Def bringing the RC truck and a ramp, instead of plywood and a battery.

          Man don't worry about the fuel economy! Just FLOOR IT!!!!

            Well if I can make it I guess that means I can save some weight and leave the spare battery at home. Weight reduction FTW.

            I've got no doubts my little truck could make the trip if we needed to haul tons of stuff, but from what my friend said when I bought it from him, it blows front tire when run at 80 MPH for around an hour or so. I hope that's taken care of with the new radius arm bushings and axle pivot bushings since the steering slop is now gone and my tires are fairly new.

              uh yeah, I can't imagine a lot of ford ranger owners being happy with blowing a tire doing 80 for an hour. Probably get that fixed when you did the suspension:P

                  Maybe if he's lucky it will blow both front tires at the same time!
                  I may own a GTO now, but I'm still a 60V6er at heart.

                    Would that be considered weight reduction if he blew them both? I know it has to be done in stages, maybe fronts, then rears.

                      ...and they come out of the woodwork!

                      Okay, I don't live in the woods anymore, I live in the urban jungle now.

                      No commitment yet, but I'm damn sure gonna try to go. And no, I'm not going to embarrass myself by trying to take my Saturn SL1 down the quarter mile. We don't have that much time!

                        How about your trip wire tent? That is all I am concerned with:P

                          Definitely! Complete with tent-tape patch over the hole. I think this time I might see if I can wrap the "triplines" in hot pink gaffer's tape.

                            I would appreciate that very much Maybe have some sensors near by to give an audible warning too. Can never be too careful.

                              You run your Saturn down the 1/4 and I will chase it with my Ranger if it gets taken. And yeah, I hope that problem was fixed after all of the suspension work I did. You don't hear clunks and bangs over bumps anymore. And yes, it is a TIB suspension. I wish it were TTB (twin traction beam) because then it would be a 4x4.

                                As long as you guys give me a hand if something breaks, I'll try the BMW on the track. never know how a 25yr old car (meant for economy) will fare against the almighty Saturn!
