Just got the call. Guess I will need to keep saving my nickels. We are going to get that brake reaction arm, will just have to pay for it. Maybe Teri will donate her cotton picking pay.
Congratulations to the winners.

I don't know Charles, just that it was not me. Surely they will announce it shortly.

I am sorry for the delay, it has been an exhausting night and it is late.
George Zhookoff for Eastern States, and Les Leach for the Western states.
Congratulations to both. We haven't totaled up to the last dime but the
grand total is in the neighborhood of $12K.
Both times the ticket tub was shaken, tickets got caught in the lid. Both
times they were put back in and the tub was re mixed. I believe both guys
are netters so again, congratulations! I'll get the vids up as soon as I
recover.

Congratulations to the winners!

I'll have to change my plans - I was certain I'd win. No worries, I'm pretty adept at changing my plans. Every time I buy a lottery ticket I make plans...

Big thanks go to Steve and Nancy Ferguson for all the time they spent
on this project.
Again Billy Massy jumped in and helped us again.
I want to thank each of you that participated and made it a success.

Congrats to the winners. I got really close (Les and I were sitting at the same table during the drawing!) I guess I'll have to get it the old fashioned way (Work, save, spend - money). I had a chance to drive Rick F's coach and I can attest to how well this system works. That coach just flat stops when you hit the brakes. It stops nice and straight too, NO squirrellyness at all!!

While I was testing it, I got the right wheels in some of that sand Jim was talking about and there was absolutely no problem with handling under hard braking, even under those conditions. This is a mod that we ALL should have. You will truly have all six wheels hooking up and have better brakes than most SOBs or even trucks which only have four brakes and more rolling inertia on the dual wheels.

Thanks to Carl for not revealing my "secret". Our coach has been an on-again/off-again project, middle burner at best. Now I have to get it in shape to make the trip to Jim's. This was our first GMCWS gathering and my wife and I thoroughly enjoyed meeting a wonderful group of folks and renewing some previous acquaintances.

Thanks

Rick F. has been kind enough to let people drive it at the rallys
since he does not haul crap to these events like I do.
Also his wife cannot attend the rallys as she teaches.
