Too funny! Definitely next year. The Baja Grande 2008 t-shirt order is going to set me back. I need $$ for inventory...

Ken, if you have been to a recent Expo... You would have no problem parting with twenty bucks for parking and admission... or catching a ride with
another... There is just so much to see and take in... It is totally up your alley... way more than mine! Jeeps and Toyotas are probably the two most
well represnted brands there for after market equipment. It is several buildings full of vehicles and off road hardware... and it is in your back
yard!
TW drives down from Bakersfield and Squarecircle drives up from El Cajon... because it is really that good!
I will take photos to share as before, but I can't begin to do it justice...
Baja Angel and I are leaving in about an hour or so... Have a great Sunday, everyone!

Thought the show was "OK"......really didn't see anything that wasn't there last year....except for all the jeep stuff.....
Thought there was less buggies and prerunners.....lots more jeep suspension exhibits.......went Saturday and thought a lot less people around (maybe
it was the weather?)

I didn't think the crowds were as big Sunday as previous years either, maybe the economy or maybe it was spread around thru more buildings. There were
lots of Jeeps and not as many Toyota FJ setups as last year. But there seem to be more Toyota Tundra trucks on display with a wide array of setup
kits. I had a good time looking and meeting Nomads. Walker Evens was at his booth signing autographs and Sal Fish was doing the same across from the
BFG booth.

Not sure if this trail is full-size friendly. It will be tight, but with 35" tires and 4WD, we can definitely make a try at it (on Mission
Impossible). The Mission Impossible trail is the only section that will be of real challenging stuff.

Hi Ken,
The photos are coming... but since you are semi hijacking TW's thread to talk about Baja Grande '08... Let me remind you, the The 2008 BAJA 1000 is
running on the day you are taking the gang to San Felipe:
Day 1 (Nov. 22) - Drive to San Felipe, rest.
Day 2 (Nov. 23) - Drive to Gonzaga Bay, rest.
The race begins Nov. 21 and runs for 31 hours from when each racer starts (6+ am to Noon+pm) and runs well into the 22nd. Crowds will be thick in San
Felipe as the race does go through town this year... See TW's Baja 1000 thread for the map of the course or print it off Score-International's site.
Just FYI!
