I assume this will be the thread where everyone posts pictures from the event. Look forward to seeing them and getting a taste of what the Expo East event will be like.

Thanks. I was all over the site yesterday and didn't see it. I am not taking any classes and didn't hit that link. Maybe they will add a searching the home page class next year which it appears I need! Appreciate it.

Just moved the thread to a more public forum. Will be easier for those not logged in to view it.

Our team is already on site and I arrive in a few hours. Looking forward to a weekend with friends.

We are on site in dry camping. Awesome vehicles and people here! Looking forward to the upcoming days.
Will the camel trophy crossing will be like the video of the series rover on bare rims crossing on ropes?
