Awesome! This was great to watch last year, and with how your videos have grown over the year should be even better.
It's almost time for the Challenge! We're loading everything up now.
Your mom is probably happy i’m not coming to destroy more of her shiny cones
I may have to have an office day on Friday so i can watch.
Competitor packets are getting stuffed now!
In reply to Patrick :
Thanks to you we no longer have shiny cones. :(

Turns out the trophies are going to be a bit of a parking lot build, too. I finished them up at 2am, then realized I was out of silver spray paint. To the parking lot!
I can't wait for the videos!!! Wish I was there.

I brought my full compliment of paint markers. See yall in the am.
When will you be starting the live coverage?
I hope they are live for Jeremy's "reveal" of his "yet unseen" wagon.
Wish I could be there. I am hoping to see some of this on line. I did see the "Wagon" on another thread. Very crazy awesome.
In reply to Mike924 :
Probably not the same wagon. The one I'm talking about looks like a Studebaker.
EDIT: Yes it is on FB

is the 2x4 pointed at the windshield an homage to a certain porsche replica from a couple years ago?
In reply to sleepyhead :
Expect two "photo runs" with body and then remaining w/o body.
I too commented about that "spear"
The thing is generally impossible to see out of. Imagine dodging cones with this view.
In reply to John Welsh :
if it's a "conestoga wagon" riff... maybe it should be considered the "yoke" ?
*note this thread has required that I spell-check two words already
