We will be there. I don't know when we are leaving (as we have to make a stop in Salt Lake to drop some stuff off). We will probably stay there Wednesday night and finish the drive Thursday. We will see you guys there.

Louis, we'll be catching 15 out of Vegas but we're going up 93 from here, it's shorter than going thru Parker then up. Won't be in the dually though(can't afford that)we're renting one of them little shit boxes(don't know what it is yet)so I'll just have to keep an eye out for ya!..

I just called up to the Burley Inn and talked to my friend she hadnt heard anything about the river being up that high. Could be wrong through. I remember in 97 its flooded and the race was cancelled, sure made the trip to Valleyfeild a lot easier!
RiverRacer

Well that's good to hear, think I'll call at the end of the week and see what's up. That's bad when the river rises, a lot of garbage is floating down river and that's not good, hopefully it didn't come up that high!...

Talked to Mark Moyle this afternoon and got a first hand report of the water conditions. According to Bureau of Land Management the River is not going to flood. Reservoirs are about 90% full and still have a ways to go. The river still need about three feet until it reaches the retaining wall. So the races will go on and we will all be there to enjoy it.
