PAST The Official 4th Annual MMWS GTG Thread

[LOMartin]

Strangely......people send me messages once in awhile telling me about winning some event or placing well at a GTG with one of my saws. But......I'm a terrible operator, so in my hands, there's like a snowballs chance in hell. LOL

I was planning on taking my MMWS 395xp to the GTG. Maybe trying this competition thing with it.

It's all in the chain......and the tune.....and the operator. Just don't suck.

I’m not trying to suck nor blow it.

How's that 3120 running?

 

[Nutball]

Or just hope everyone else sucks that day, it can happen

I still haven’t made it out with the 3120 other then a quick test...day job has been nonstop and now it’s pouring rain in here and I’m in the middle of a move. Good times really.

Anyone bringing a 2.5 cube saw? I think it was brought up in the thread last year.

We usually have a 45cc and under class. TowMas and I were the only ones in it last year.

I tried the square wood thing a few years ago at one of the PA gtgs. Got some quick lessons from Dave on technique and jumped in. I sucked, the chain was just a firewood chain and the tune was probably on the edge of turning the piston to molten metal. But it was fun and I'd do it again as a just for fun thing.
Think the Del 590 would be fun if setup right and the hack behind the wheel got his act together.

My plain ol firewood chains are pretty fast, that's why they are firewood chains, because they are too aggressive for anything else.

But, I'm sure they're no match for race chains.

Anything consumed must be considered a rental. Coffe beer and soda are shorter term rentals I guess, while bbq beef and pulled pork stick within longer.

Getting closer.

I've been talking to Dave about funding this shindig. In years past we've passed the hat.....raffled off saws....etc.

I sorta hate to start any sort of fundraiser at the moment. There are others on the site that need the help far more than we do right now. I'm thinking we'll just pass the hat this year to help with the wood and the *s-wordters.

Shea ain't bringing his awesome mobile kitchen this year, but we have a stove and fridge in the barn. So if anyone is interested in fixing some breakfast on Saturday, I'll make sure we have the stuff. I'm gonna be laying out a spread for a late lunch sorta thing Saturday. Pulled pork of course. Friday evening we usually take off to Crossville and eat out together. Plan ahead though. If you are arriving early on Friday, you might want to bring sandwich fixings or something for lunch. We are in the middle of nowhere out here, can't just order a pizza. LOL

@Mastermind

Some fellers camped in the big barn one year......there's an acre under that roof.

If you want a room, check out the Jordan Motel in Jamestown. There are plenty of rooms in Crossville too.

But.....it is cool to camp if you want Larry. Just be there !!!!

What time do things get going friday? Is there a competition to beat the roosters out of bed?

Anyway, I'm just trying to figure when I should leave here each morning.

I'm up at daybreak. I'll be around feeding the critters and stuff. Most folks show up about 8 or so.

You prolly could order a few pizzas. Delivery charge might get real stupid.
