MNTDR Just an Invite, NOW WITH VIDEO OF BUS RACE

As many of you know who I am in MN as well as western WI. I just wanted to let you guys know that Josh is graduating this year. The party is at my place May 21st. I won't care when you show up, the beer will be cold, and if it matters food will be out. Since Josh has worked on several trucks with you guys, he has desinated parking for all the Cummins that show up, trust me everone gets to see them... ... ..... lol.



I will get directions up if there is more that wanna come than already know where I live, and yes J. P. I will give you directions. If the "fat kid" can come guess you can too. Then we can talk more about when and where we all staying in Indiana in June.



Later Dudes... ... ... ... ..... Jim.

You know Andrew, that is fairly vauge..... lol, J. D. , geeee that could have been me Josh or Jack, if you haven't noticed my 5 kids names either start with an "A" or a "J". Besides I already knew you were coming, bringing the misses?

 

[SMorneau]

That sounds like fun to me. I can't think of a finer young man to congratulate and you guys can talk me into going to IN. I think I remember the directions to your place. Let's see, south out of Osceola at about 100mph (faster if you don't have the camper on and there is a hint of moonlight ) turn left on typical NE WI county road and head west at a reduced speed of 85 mph, ...

 

[ChillyDog]

I just marked the date on the calender! Do I get a VIP passout spot on the lawn? :-laf

 

[TurboTweaker]

whats this passing out stuff? you managed to drink till the sun cam up at TIM i think you could manage to do it at spicy's house. Jim i think i could talk the misses into going. the only problem with it is i will eather be there early or late. that same day is Buffalo's tractor pull and i might have to work but i know i will pull my truck and get our tractors ready. i'll be there just dont know when.

[ChillyDog]

Not planning on passing out there young buck! I just want to make sure that after we put all you little tikes to bed that I have a place to crash .

 

[HoleshotHolset]

Out of curiosity, what sort of graduation is this?



Matt

 

[SpicyJam]

Matt, just high school. So the women would be too young for you, but you can still come otherwise you have to wait till my daughter grads from Stout to mingle with the college women... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... . lol.

But it doesn't matter what kind it is, we have a blast when we get together anyway. So come on up.

 

[HoleshotHolset]

Yeah... don't need to be mingling with jailbait.



Does your daughter like diesel trucks?



Matt

Nice invite. Wish i could make it down.



Do you want me to put this out on the newsletter?



-John

 

[SpicyJam]

No, thats Ok John. Not really a BOMB day, although I think my boy would have more fun working on trucks than anything, I think that this is just an informal way to get together with some of the great people I have met over the past couple of years.

Not to say though something won't happen later that night. Seems like it always does... ... ... ... ... ... . .

 

[JoshPeters]

Sounds like Fat Kid Doughnuts in Spicy's lawn at about 3am!



hehe... .



Josh

 

[TurboTweaker]

Just a little FYI for those planning on attending to come. Friday night Torque Diesel Performance was asked to go to the local high school and tweak on a bus. Now this bus was purchased by Cedar Lake Speed Way, a total of 8 to 10 buses were bought and given to the local schools in plans of a dirt track bus racing. The bus we worked on for this Saturday's night event is a 1984 Thompson with a DT360 in it. The local students are in charge of paint, and a little weight reduction, and getting the exhaust to funnel out through the hood. We were asked to do a little motor work, and we will keep what we did hush hush. Well what all can ya do in 2 weeks?, well we got it! Thanks to Josh Daly, Tim Christensen, Andy Thomas(a. k. a. "Fat Kid"), and myself, we managed to make this bus move like no other school bus I have ever rode in, to the point where the clutch is now a weak link, it is getting a new one this coming week.

So, the race is Saturday night, same day as grad, and since I live 2 miles from Cedar Lake, plans are, some of us are attending this race which maybe ran at 11pm or even midnight. I will know in a couple of days when exactly they plan on running the buses, my guess is at the end of the show since I am sure they do not want a tore up track if one lays on its side. The big boys out there would be a bit upset. Later, Jim.

 

[JoshPeters]

Sounds like Bus Doughnuts now!



Go boys go!



Josh

 

[HoleshotHolset]

This sounds like a Redneck weekend to me... Every time I check this thread, it gets better! :-laf



No offense!



Matt

 

[SpicyJam]

Well when you live where I do, anything goes. No neighbors, 80+ acres to do whatever. Add some beer a few trucks and we get as redneckish as you can imagine. So it should be fun.

 

[HoleshotHolset]

I'd love to have even a few acres and no neighbors...

Where's them directions at?



Matt

 

[SpicyJam]

If you can find your way to Somerset or Osceola, WI you are almost there. From Somerset make your way to Hwy 35 and head north until you see a group of yellow hwy signs, those would be a tractor crossing, snowmobile crossing, and a + sign (4 way sign). They are the only group like that on the road. Take a right at that intersection, this is 10th Ave, head east on that for 4. 5 miles and my place is on the left. There will be signs posted. Now same goes from Osceola, WI. Take Hwy 35 towards Somerset and after the town of East Farmington look for the same 3 signs, but take a left and the directions are the same. All the trucks will be parked in view when you head down the road, so you can't miss it.

The race track is only 2 miles from the house, and all back road. I do not have gravel roads to my home, so if you find your way onto one, you are lost.

Matt if you are coming call me, 715-248-7151. There is a little easier way. Later Jim.
