EVENT: Heartland Chapter Rally: AZ, Tucson - 2/23/2016 to 2/28/2016

Hey Garry,
Is the weigh in just so the owners know what their rigs weigh?, or is that a contest to see who comes closest to their actual weight?

 

[Doublegranch]

Well, We certainly could make a game of it.....I guess each weigh in participant could write down a number and seal it in an envelope....give me all sealed envelopes with your names on the outside, after your weigh in.....we will open the envelopes and compare to the final report...
If you win, the loser (Number off by the largest amount) buys the winner ( Number closest to your report) a drink......Now how many want to play?

Wilson, by the way the original intent was to make sure you are within your RV & TV weight limits....SAFETY....

 

[MTPockets]

If the weigh in is like one we had several years ago, he will weigh and record each wheel on truck and trailer while hitched up, then separately the truck alone. From that data he will show your combined weight, trailer weight, truck weight, and your pin weight. The numbers will tell you if you are within your vehicle rated limits, plus with the individual trailer tire weights, you can determine your load sharing per tire.

Rally Update:
Grand Canyon Room: We will have a Coffee/Ice Tea bar on Wed & Sat, the bar will be open at 9AM and last all day.
The Coffee/Ice Tea Bar will be Hosted by the Arizona Chapter and the vendor will be the KOA restaurant.

I guess I shouldn't be so ascared, then . . . and maybe the Fireball will help take the rest of the edge off!

 

[Doublegranch]

What you really need to worry about is tearing a hole in my Chaps!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Life insurance will take care of Cathy......

 

[JohnD]

By-the-by . . . Cathy wants to know what is different about an Arizona BBQ so she can figure out what to bring to the potluck.

Picking up the Prowler on Thursday after 10 weeks at the dealership getting warranty repairs . . . almost forgot what it looks like!

I'll only need the life insurance if I rip a hole in the chaps . . . r i g h t ? ? ? ? ?

 

[Doublegranch]

John:

Arizona BBQ is just a name....the food is the same as Texas.....we will have BBQ Pork Butt and Grilled Chicken Thighs...
So tell Cathy to bring it on...what ever she provides will be a special welcome to the menu....

Oh by the way, on the opening night we will have " Rat Fudge Sundaes" Now that is an Arizona "Thing"
