We have our permit from the state and have been in close contact with Burke. They are definitely expecting us :D

Will call tomorrow to see what's up with the Burke site.

I wasn't concerned about the hillclimb not happening just thought that the mountain was missing out on possible advertising and drawing from different market pools. And also the opportunity to bring awareness to hillclimbs in Vermont.

I've reserved site 22 for you. I'm not sure it can fit four cars, but it's the biggest site still available. ;)

You might have to leave a car or two up in the trailer lot.

KSCC folks...I had mentioned that I'd get a fire extinguisher for Burke. I still don't if i'll be at the hill yet (will know early next week) but will get it to someone regardless.

Question is this: would a 10lb abc be ok? I think we said we needed a 5lb. West Haven Volunteer fire department donated a 10lb, I picked it up today. They did not have any 5lb extinguishers. I'll keep looking for 5lb if, or just buy one if needed..

10 pounders are good for the checks. 5's for incar. So that works for us. Thanks! Now go finish you car! ;)
Translating road racing to hillclimbing:
Proper tire selection== nothing hooks up on moss or wet leaves.
Staying on the racing line==anything paved is considered good.

Just five campsites left at Burke. Only tent sites left. If you need a site, let me know.

If you can get it to Northfield(you are still in Randolph?) then I could transport to Burke. My Brother in Law Bucky lives in Northfield, and I'm am sure he'd take custody of it, and I could get it from him. Pm for directions.

Or I have 2+ gallons of veggie ready to go, if you are looking for a road trip to my place.
