The craptastic miata and dune buggy body have been liberated from their trailers and are just patiently waiting for the magic to happen tomorrow.

I'm in the middle of making trophies. Successfully set up a laser engraver I got for Christmas and burning the first trophy now!

This is probably not the best use of my time, but staff-made trophies are a tradition I can't let go.

I've never come to the challenge without either a tow vehicle or as part of a team.  I never realized the challenge in packing when your only vehicle is the compectator.   We've got the Saab chock full of our stuff and are on the road!

Challenge glory awaits your Slaab sir!
