The PA Chapter's "Truck Nationals Month" August 2021 Chat and B/S Thread

Another month turns over. This time, it's into August and this coming weekend is Truck Nationals in Carlisle. It's al all-out press to try and get the OBS ready to go but we'll see what happens. Either way, I'll be there parked with another club I'm involved in - OBS Addicts - since I don't have the 98 on the show field again this year. 2022...I swear....

Not too much to say, really. I've been working like a madman all day, and I'm beat and ready to go to bed. You know what to do, so...do it.

Welcome to August, the month that legends are born!

It's going to be a busy month in the Krut household for sure. We just got back from our Tennessee vacation last night. We hosted out-of-town family for dinner today. My youngest has scout camp this week. My daughter has the Pony League World Series and her fall volleyball tryouts for high school. My oldest has his golf tryouts for the high school this month too. My new West Coast rep will be in town for one week and I'll be out West with him another week for training. Oh yeah, not to be outdone, my wife is finally going back to grad school this month!

I'll need two of me to make it happen, but so be it! Enjoy the last few hours of the weekend & get yourself ready for a busy August!

Morning.

I was supposed to be in Pittsburgh today, but other people went instead. Fine by me in that I didn't wanna spend the morning in a trench drilling holes in a perfectly good vault, but they could have told me before I got to the plant at 4AM...lol.

Carlisle week is here - so, that means the assault is on. Not sure if things will come together or not, but if they don't - it won't be for a lack of effort on my part.
