I have had good luck with my Nokian snow tires. The first year or two I ran Bridgestone Potenza G009 all season tires which worked outpretty well. They provided enough grip to get moving and to initiate some sort of steering, but they in now way compared to a set of snow tires. my 2.2l was spinning them off the line the first year while Zak's REVO 1s would through you back in the seat under acceleration.
my wife (subiechick) and I are in this year. we will take the double bed in cabin 4 if it is still available. Does anyone have the exact amount to send with the paypal fees or should I just send like $110 or something? If someone can answer this before 12:40 am tonight I will pay it before I take off to work otherwise I will just send it out when I get home. Thanks a lot!
I think $104 is more than enough, cant remember exactly. I will put you in #4 as soon as your money arrives. Thanks Rich
We still have that set of studded tires we never used, the studs have to be shortened on 3 of the tires. I think we were going to try to sell them again for 50 bucks, since we don't need them anymore.
I forgot to include the paypal fees when I sent my payment. I will make good on that when we come up and pay the rest in cash!!
After watching the vids from 08, its starting to feel like I dont want to miss this year..... I'll know for sure soon!
Sorry to have bad news to say..... I will be OUT of town that weekend. I tryied to get it moved to another date but my 2 cents had NO weight.....I will be out in the Big Horns with some buddies of mine playing in the 15' + powder snowmowbileing. Sorry guys, and Cabin 5....have my drinks for me would you?? Thanks
I think I would go with you if I had the choice... but that might be because I have never done that but I have done the ice races, and I love snowmobiling.
:emo:. I'm with Bill, though. If I had the choice, it would be pretty hard to pass up snow like that! We'll definitely have a few for you!
yeah. i would take powder any day. but who says we won't get dumped on while we are at the ice races. I will make sure to pour some out for Bill!
Hmm...should I buy new ice tires just for this... I'm contemplating retiring the LM-25s to just rally-x and then get a "real" winter tire.
I'll be up in Tower, MN at Fortune Bay Resort on Lake Vermillion for a snowmobile trip that weekend. I'd love to ride up and check out the races and cars. Which day are you guys doing the fish fry, bonfire, etc.? Or which day will be the most entertaining I guess?
Saturday night is the bonfire and fish fry. There will be partying Wednesday-Sunday Saturday would be the day I would stop by ^^^
nice. i didn't even notice that. well between now and then we need to find a MNSOC member named bill who is not coming so we can pour some out for him too :biggrin:
i have at least 1 road flare, a bunch of the good roman candles and about 1,000+ bottle rockets...war works
it might be me. If I dont get a job by then I dont know that it will be in the budget.... but we are doing everything we can to make it!!! mostly because I want some of riches sausage.
bump for only 1 bed spot left!! There will be some people coming up Wedmesday and Thursday, it will be $40 for a night for either of those days. If you plan on coming up early please let me know.
can you put me down for two in Cabin 5 please! I will be taking photos at this event! EDIT: Just paypal'd. Thanks Joseph!
Got you down for the couch & a floor spot that were left in Cabin #5 Schreiner.Photo. We'll all look forward to some nice pics from the event! btw...my name is Rich The paypal is in my dad's name for the Resort.
