Are we doing any T-shirts or stickers?  I'm ready to pony up. 

Last RJ, I saw Will's tee with, "I was there, where the hell were you?" on the back.  Someone else had one, Noah, I believe on the last outing.  I think a smart ass comment on the back would be a good idea for this year.  "Hold my beer and watch this" or maybe a cartoon caricature of Dave jumping his RC over Texas or laying upside down.  It could have "DD" on the door to identify him.  Just some ideas to get the brain juice flowing.

I came up with  "I was there, where the hell were you?"  for the 2004 RamJam. I thought it was a good quote and I would always get comments from strangers in public. Defiantly draws attention.

Im working on making the Awards now so voting and ideas are closed. Mud Engineering school is keeping me extremely busy and is extremely hard  but I hope to finish the awards in time. the dodge is another story..........

My redneck engineering skills can only go so far. Wish I could of helped further.

Glad to see your back on track and making progress on the D150.

Seem like when ever a group of Dodge guys get together its always a adventure!

What about tallest truck and maybe smallest tires?

We did uglyiest (most ugly) truck but had a hard time deciding... (2009)

We also did shortest drive and longest drive.

Seems like they had something like "Most Technical".  They gave it to me but I haven't the slightest idea why.  I was just redneck.

I was trying to stay away from generic awards which involved running around with a tape measure measure tires and wheels. I didn;t see the point of giving a award to this guys because he has 44's with 12 inchs of lift while the truck next to him had 11 inchs of lift and 43's. Or having to firgure which of two stock RC's have smaller bald tires and more dodge lean.

The awards are setup more about driver input and personality rather then who has the biggest truck. This gives a chance for a guy with  stock RC to when awards.

What are the requirements for each event/Award?

Read the other post about awards and events. Its all there

Awards-
Adventurer Award-
Danger Dave Award-
Top Hand Award-
Trail Duster Award-
Riding Shotgun Award-
BackSeat Driver Award-

Events-
#1: HILL CLIMB
#2  SLOW CRAWL
#3  OBSTACLE COURSE or BARRELL RUN

So Do we all agree that these are the awards and trophys? If so when i get back I will get to work on them

So what are the Final Or latest plans for  RamJam??
I didn;t get a final count of events or awards so I can either just make some and go with it or we can wait for a final count.

Whats the verdict on vendors and prizes?

At this point, My company is sending me to Mud Engineering school which will be from July8-Aug30. So there is a good chance I can make it. But my schedule to get things done before then will be tight. So the more we can get done now would be great.

They look very similiar to the wagon wheels in the 70's. Look like the polished version on the painted wagon wheels they use to run on the 70's Macho. I will keep my eyes out for some. I just recently aquired two sets of 8 lug hurricane rims from the 70's/

Any other ideas or suggestions? If not when i get home in two weeks I will start getting together the awards/ trophies

can you post a picture of what they look like? I run across classic rims every once in awhile.

Not yesterday but it sure is pouring down on me now.

Well I think Ive figured out what the award / trophy is going to be. I just need to know how many I need to get. How many awards are we going to give out? How many events are we going to have?

I know, Not much luck happening here. But I am going to Houston in a few days to pick up some parts 

Most of yall know im looking for a 77 M886 or 80 W400 Ambulance. Well im not having much luck tracking one that isn;t a thousands miles, eaten up with rust or has no title. The search continues though

But Ive also had another option if i can find the bed. The Chevy CUCV had the M1010 Which also was a ambulance or a communcation truck.
The Bed looks like this
http://pensacola.craigslist.org/pts/3768026446.html

Well I found a 77 Dodge with the same bed on it and it was call a M880 Communcation truck. Now I don;t know if the military actaully used these or someone just transfered the M1010 bed to a M880. But either way I like the idea and the look and they are made of aluminum. If anyone knows of one in TEXAS Please let me know.
