i'm willing to bet they still have a shitload. just waiting for a new biker video to pop up. there was a recently posted one, but i don't think the video itself was recent.

what about crocs. i forgot to announce that i joined croc nation like a month ago and i'm loving it.

he'll probably be pretty low. you'll be doing him a big favor by telling him to take earplugs or, if he has them, earmuffs like one would use at a shooting range.

the paper bag one? that's not it. you're right tho, it does have a very distinguished history related to nascar -- i got it at the sept 2013 dover race from the skoal tent. it was meant to be. i've tried and failed to find an identical one to replace it.

True but 100pct chance of drinking

actually i lied, short of the tippy top where the spotters sit, this is probably the best seat in the house. maybe 4 years back, we managed to convince some kid checking tickets that we were allowed into the 'victory club'. it's maybe a 4 story building with seating at victory lane. we had weird tickets that we got for free from a vendor that just had a big ass A on them and nothing else. no one staffing wise knew what it meant (we did, it was just a general admission ticket). so that kid let us in like whatever. so that was cool. shaded area up close, open bar, free food. then we saw a stairway that said 'media only'. naturally, we tried to sneak up. got denied. that guy had to run down for some security thing, so we ran up quick. no one bothered us, private bathroom, fuckin FOX camera crew all that. it was the most amazing thing ever. and i got a pic with richard childress. the other randos were dudes that also snuck up, there was only a handful of other people. we were all beyond hype. we also found out that they had some truly fuckin bizarre velvet room at the bottom of the building. we were hammered and just started opening doors and walked in. a couple people were in there like uhhhhh. we were like uhhhh. then some pit crew member ran in to use the bathroom. we did a 180 and went home.

i always feel sorry for the people who are buying $6 beers at the stands. either they didn't do their research or their friends forgot to give them the 411. but yeah it's a huge aspect in terms of making it worth going. that's prob why they allow it.

all a matter of opinion. generally though, highest up possible, closest to S/F line. at least you can see most of the track if you're in a row in the 40's. that faint view is when you should be slamming a beer.

my body is ready. 88deg, mid 50s humidity, doesn't sound too bad if some clouds stick around.

i'll let yall know how it goes. still trying to sort out the ticket situation since it's really, really weird this year. 100 level sold out and there's next to nothing decent for $95 retail further up near start finish. i don't know if scalpers will be out in force like usual. normally i'd drive up around 9, find two rando tickets for $40/pair, be back home by 10, start party rockin and getting ready, then head up around 11/12. we'd just sit anywhere, the tix were just to get in. that might not be an option this time around with the crowds and limited supply of cheap tix. im freaking out a tiny bit at the thought of having to pay $200 for two 'meh' seats.

Looks like lilies. Maybe stargazer variety after poking around on Google

Hole looks bigger than before. There is a concrete square in there but might be for a pole rather than the terminal. No poles or anything but they could be up top. Ton of Spartan race stuff sitting in the lot tho

as someone who doesn't have public trash pickup and needs to pay for bulk items, this is the first thing that crossed my mind lmao

this rusty thing

mount skis to the bottom pray for a pow day be towed around the lot like a king on his throne

concrete is supposedly being poured 'down there at the lift project' today.

ah shit i actually went over the mtn and never thought to check the top lots.

stopped by today unplanned. had to go through the lodge to get out to be able to get the photos, the part of lot we would walk through when going to the lift is roped off as a 'construction area'. nothing in the lot in terms of towers etc. waiting to be placed. massive hole dug in where the warming hut / ski patrol shacks used to be, that's gotta be the terminal. looks like holes for the towers going up the one half of the learning hill, plenty of room for both lifts. that's all ive got.

nope, just disassembled everything so that i could transport it on my own into the garage. maybe i'll get to it one day this summer.

power is partially out

dont forget that today is the last day to pick up one of the chairs that will be quickly selling out.

im wondering if it has anything to do with bike season. that's where it was for a while until they moved it earlier this year before ski season to show the sixer. with that being said, they could have probably just pointed the tubing cam towards the quad. i don't know about that cam in particular, but the rest can be moved remotely. i'm not surprised tho. thanks blue.

been tryin to get down there to take pics but haven't had a chance. my goal is sunday now that there's some action. will be sure to use the dslr instead of my blueberry.
