Cool Meet Up and Roll in for Formula Drift this Sat!

Guys,
Let's figure out a plan for this Saturday.
I say we need the following but i've never been to anything like this so feedback is good:

1) Tent
2) Bottles of water
3) Cooler
4) Ice
5) Snacks (chips, etc)
6) Sunscreen!

Chris said we need to be there around 10am to get registered and everything by 11.

We need to find a place to meet that's easy for everyone.
We did Bass Pro Shops in Grapevine last time, it's easy, central, and on the way and not far for anyone that is headed to TMS.

So what do you guys think? 9am at Bass Pro Shops? Roll out by 915am?

Also, let's figure out who wants to bring what if we do wanna bring some stuff. We need input.

1. ezpotato - emad - water and chips
2.
3.
4.
5.

I know you dont care...LOL! I was just saying that for some that have brand new paint jobs that a disaster zone...we went through it on our way to XDC and it was solid mud and slush from rain and was a bitch to clean when we got to the show.

with that being said I dont mind taking that route at all. I think I remember you going with us and we had to sit in traffic for how long in the denton area......remember that.

I think I have a 10' x 10" canopy somewhere, Ill look for it tonight. Shade never hurts.

Grapevine works, just a straight shot up 360 for me.

I was up there last weekend, the construction wasnt bad at all

do you want me to bring some weights that we can put on the ends of the tents to hold them down Chris?
