    To be fair to all those who want to be part of the Left Coast Tribe (tribe as in Wild West for all those Easterners), I was thinking we could use the Continental Divide to define Left Coast. If your junk drains into the Pacific your on the Left Coast, if not, your not.

    Now as for Grand Prairie AB, there is a little known exception to the “junk drains into the Pacific” rule; it seems as how one of your early red chief’s (if I remember correctly his name was Chief Red Mustang) declared his junk would run all the way into the Pacific. That being said, welcome to all those Drag Week brothers from AB, Canada.

    Hardy Handshakes, Swede

    ps: I’m really not the one who determines “Left Coast”, I just think CDM Bill may have forgot this little bit of history…
    pss: Do we get to sign to trunk lid on this years ride or is it the same lid we signed last year?

Haven't decided for sure if I will put my signed deck lid on my car for drag week 2014 .. I had my signed deck lid 3m protected ) Not a bad idea to get the new one signed .. That would be a very cool momento of drag week 2014 ( and being year 10 ) Now as for Grand Prairie AB, there is a little known exception to the “junk drains into the Pacific” rule; it seems as how one of your early red chief’s (if I remember correctly his name was Chief Red Mustang) declared his junk would run all the way into the Pacific.

          You have to bring it. It's the most famous deck lid from Drag Week.

            Bring it and collect even more DW signatures, you can't get them anywhere else! I've got over 60 DW signatures on my DW 2011 banner, it makes for great shop art and starts interesting conversations. See you in September. Hardy Handshakes, Swede

                Hey guys, good idea CDMBill had to share routes etc. I will be coming south and east from Seattle via the following route: I-90, then I-82, then I-84 to Boise and on to Salt Lake, then I-80 to Cheyenne, then I-25 to Denver, then I-70 to Salina, Kansas, then south on I-35 to hi way 412 to Tulsa. Expected arrival in Tulsa Thursday September 4th. Anyone who can be helped along the way is welcome to request a phone number and my tools are your tools, whatever I can do to assist. Driving a solid black Dodge Ram pulling a solid black enclosed car trailer with WA plates. See you all in Paradise!

                    That is sweet route and getting to visit some of our star BS'ers on the way is icing on the cake.

                    Floyd and I are leaving Thursday at the crack of dawn so we can arrive Tulsa Friday evening as we did in 2012. It'll be the basic 73-55-91-I15 to I40 to Tulsa deal in Cali speak.
