And once the beer flows, the fuel slows.

yep, I'll have a freq. clip board. If you don't have the clip for your freq., don't even think about turning on your radio. Basically, as people show up I will take down your name, freq, forum handle, and type of RC you are using. I will then point you in the direction of the clip board so no one has an excuse that they "didn't know where it was". If YOU cause any mishaps with runaways, YOU will be asked to pack your stuff up and not use your equipment for the rest of the day. (or GO HOME!). We don't have the time or money for any runaways due to neglegence.
And of course, this is a PLAY AT OWN RISK BASH! don't expect anyone to pay for anything that is damaged for any reason, even if you think it was their fault.
A gallon of fuel is definitely enough. I only ran 1 tank of fuel at the last bash and most everyone else didn't even use a half gallon. And that's with 1/8's and big MT's. The most cars I seen run at one time at Berwyn is like 6-7 at one time, and on average it's 1-2. Don't expect to see 30 cars running around together.
Please LMK if you guys have anymore questions

It's hard to drive one handed (you spill too much
) so fuel last a long time!!And if it's cold we'll all be huddled by the grills!

The last BIG bash at Berwyn went off great, without any problems. It's actually kinda scary that as a group of guys just out to have a good time and have a few beers, there are less radio conflicts than at organized events. Too many times, I've seen and had radio issues, because someone in the pits was testing or fixing their car/truck with no regards to anyone who might be on that channel. Also, at one of the Monster Jams, a bunch of us watched in HORROR as a Fully decked out SuperMaxx went WOT into a brick wall, all because someone wasn't paying attention and clearing their channel. (Even worse, wasn't even registered to be part of the event)
As long as everyone remembers to check the freq board, and get their channel clip, we will have another bash go by with minimal problems.

Tent? I'm pitting out of the trunk of my car and a cardboard box!!!
Maybe a bag chair or two, and that's it.

HE's 12 and has great manual dexterity, which I attribute to videogames. However he has never ran the truck with other RCs around. I just want him to have fun, which I am sure he will.

Hope I didn't offend you, was sort of meant to be a joke :o . I'm only 14, so, yeah, it's not like I'm some 40 year old guy calling your kid a crappy driver, it's me
(not calling him a crappy driver either though) ...So yeah, hope you didn't take that the wrong way. He'll do fine with other rc's I'm sure anyways.

October Berwyn Bash! - Ponch - 10-26-2005
Ok, so should I pick up some nametags? If y'all want me to, I can get them and use the list to fill them out the night b4...
October Berwyn Bash! - UE-Maxx - 10-26-2005
Does someone want to maybe make a new thread about different frequencies everyone will be on to see if there is going to be a lot of conflicts?
Just post the different frequency/frequencies that you have or if you have spektrum just say that you have spektrum lol
