Is anyone going to be traveling the route from say Corpus to Bryan?
Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
Looks like you and I are the convoy so far. Shoot me an email and we can exchange contact information. Kennybrewton@gmail.comWe’re gonna be coming from Tulsa and seen where someone said a convoy from Waco, we will probably be in the camper towing a hmvee, Friday afternoon works for us unless the crazy roosky goes chemical or nuclear?
Know the feeling. HeadWind bouncing off my windshield buckles my hood. Need to do some reinforcement.Dang, 10 day forecast says I am going to be busting a head wind both directions, those coming down from north of Bryan should have it relatively easy!
Since I put that S788 shelter on 95% of my power is consumed by aerodynamics, not that I don't have the power to drive any way I want I was hoping to cruise along at a fair pace and actually get some MPG numbers.
Actually that is not completely honest, today on a short run I was facing a 17MPH headwind and pushed her to close to ticket time and the EGTs went to 1300F not real comfortable running that high for long, I was running 950F on the same trip downwind, time to look for a bigger intercooler.
Sure you have the right dates? The rally is 12 days from yesterdayDang, 10 day forecast says I am going to be busting a head wind both directions, ...
Yes the 10 day forecast does push out to more than 10 days, it also changes of course because they have a hard enough time predicting what tomorrow will be, it now says the transition from north to south wind will be on Thursday not Friday so I MIGHT actually have a tail wind!Sure you have the right dates? The rally is 12 days from yesterday
It has been my experience since I started with our adventures in my FJ40 that as soon as I pull out of the drive the wind automatically changes direction to have to buck a gale force head wind. And for some reason has the foresight to know when I am heading home to do the same. Acceptance ha!Yes the 10 day forecast does push out to more than 10 days, it also changes of course because they have a hard enough time predicting what tomorrow will be, it now says the transition from north to south wind will be on Thursday not Friday so I MIGHT actually have a tail wind!

You never know ha. Figured if you came Thursdaywith the southwind we could head down Fri with a north one hehehe.You know it has been a couple decades since I was in Waco, there might not be anyone looking for me their now....
Ugh!!! I can't make it!!!Barring a mechanical catastrophe, (or WWIII erupting) I'll be there! I have the "convoy light" package, if anyone has a "Convoy Follows" or Convoy Ahead banner?
Also, for mini-convoy purposes, I'll be rolling from New Caney.... Planning on 105 out west from Conroe, but could take a more southerly route for strength in numbers.

I can jump in the convoy just tell me when and where to be. I took Friday off just to give me enough time to get where I need to be.@Firehound - I’ll take Hwy 105 also. A convoy sounds good.
We need @Nitrodiver and @TAZZJR to join us.
