CALL WINDROCK NOW IF YOU WANT A CABIN- THEY'RE GONNA' GO FAST...
BIG ANNOUNCEMENT
I will release the 2023 date next Monday morning.
This will give everyone a week to talk to their friends and spouses and decide if they want to attend and if so, for how long.
The event will still be a fall event like it always has.
My hope is that a full year in...
Oh man, your post really made my day. Thanks!
I'm glad it was enjoyed. We got a lot of very positive feedback this year - I'm a little sad we didn't have a bigger turnout but I think when people see the pictures from this year and read the reviews that next year will be bigger and better.
I'm...
I have updated the rally Facebook page to the Southeastern Military Vehicle Rally.
If you have this bookmarked, update accordingly

I will and there's also a Facebook page you can follow. Any update from here is also crossposted there: https://www.facebook.com/SoutheasternMilitaryVehicleRally
Update:
I emailed my POC @ Windrock Sunday when I got back, asking for the invoice for this year and dates for next year. Talked to her just now and they're busy prepping for a big event this weekend, but next week, they'd sit down and see what dates they had available.
So as soon as I have...
I have a few leftover shirts from this year and a few prior years for sale, go here: https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/leftover-2022-southeastern-military-vehicle-rally-shirts-and-a-few-older-ones.211693/
Also, thanks to everyone who bought shirts: We sold a bunch and that was an...
Ok, got home a few hours ago, everything is in the washing machine, inventoried the shirts, counted the money, etc. So now I can take a few minutes to share some stuff.
Thanks to everyone who showed up and thanks to all those who helped (recovry4x4, walker hunter, squirt truck, Dumpster...
Hard to say. You never know what's going to be for sale in the swap meet.
I will say that even in years when I was broke and wasn't looking for anything, I managed to spend money.
There is a thread up where people can post what they're looking for and what they have for sale...
Shirts!
So, for the last few years, Dave did the graphic design work on the shirts and I really liked it. I think my favorite was the year the shirt had all the data plates on the back and each data plate had info about the event.
But for the past couple of years, Dave was too busy to do the...
This is my understanding.
I do not have a design of the field layout yet. Durhamtown's main rally field was a result of several years trial and error and once we found a groove we liked (aisles, lots of room in between them for big trucks, etc.), it started happening organically.
I would...
Also, I can't get there any sooner than Thursday afternoon. It's just life, work, etc.
So you may get there before we do. Please be patient with the Windrock staff.
This is everyone's first year: Let's be frank: no one knows where anything is going to go. Could be bumpy, confusing, etc...
Folks, it's been brought to my attention that some folks have expressed concerns about the cost of attending the event, to the point where apparently more than one person thinks it costs a thousand bucks a day to attend.
I need to address this.
It costs the rally (Mac and me) $1,000 per day to...
A big announcement today:
Memphis Equipment has agreed to sponsor our event for 2022
Memphis' long term support of this event has been nothing short of amazing.
I hope all of you will throw them some business - without their help, we couldn't do this.

Ok guys, sorry this took so long. I am trying to get everything done I need to get done and I haven't even driven my truck in a month, let alone serviced it.
:ROFLMAO: but :mad:
Ok, so here's the basics:
There is a dedicated area we're taking for the event. Big flat field with nice gravel...
Sizes will likely be small, medium, large, XL, XXL and XXXL.
I'll have some cost #s next week, but I'd assume it'll be close to prior years ($20 / shirt, $22.50 for XXL and XXXL).
