shred Posted March 29, 2002 Share Posted March 29, 2002 Ok, I'm tired of seeing the 'Factory Nationals' thread pop in the check-new-posts and remind me I'm not going. So, who is going to the Race Gun nationals? I've got a slot and can make it.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
38supPat Posted March 29, 2002 Share Posted March 29, 2002 yup, I'll be going. Checking into flights today. Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BSeevers Posted March 29, 2002 Share Posted March 29, 2002 Everything booked except flight, I hate flying with my gun. Gee hotels are expensive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shooter Grrl Posted March 29, 2002 Share Posted March 29, 2002 David and I will be there - got the call for our slots last night! We're at the Best Western and we're driving. Anybody wants to tag along to the range and save a rental car rate, lemme know. Pat - I'll request us to be squadded with you :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ErikW Posted March 29, 2002 Share Posted March 29, 2002 Got my slot filled out for Limited. Not sure if I'm flying or driving, probably driving. A BE.com squad would be cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TDean Posted March 29, 2002 Share Posted March 29, 2002 I'm on the waiting list..... Talking to headquarters yesterday, they say the deadline for slot returns is late April. Waiting list persons will then start to be notified, sooner if earned slots are turned down and the party notifies USPSA quickly. ShooterGirl, were you called in reference to the waiting list? Weeks ago when you posted about the waiting list ( http://www.brianenos.com/cgi-bin/ikonboard//topic.cgi?forum=6&topic=50 ), I got on it the same day (first week of January), thanks. Got my fingers crossed..... (Edited by TDean at 1:44 pm on Mar. 29, 2002) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EricW Posted March 29, 2002 Share Posted March 29, 2002 Is it still possible to be put on the waiting list for a slot? E Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Detlef Posted March 29, 2002 Share Posted March 29, 2002 I'm going, too. So who should I ask to be squadded with in the BE.com squad? Erik, Roy, Kath, Pat, BSeevers and (gasp!) Brian and Robbie? --Detlef ("down with the super squad...") Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Storm Posted March 30, 2002 Share Posted March 30, 2002 I'm going too. Where's the best place to fly into? I still need to book a flight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrianH Posted March 30, 2002 Share Posted March 30, 2002 Portland is cheapest, but a pain in the ass; Portland and SF will connect into the Redmond airport.....I don't know what fares are like or anything.

BSeevers Posted March 30, 2002 Share Posted March 30, 2002 Eric You can get on the waiting list. Slots should open up April 30 I believe. Detlef We are the super squad :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davecutts Posted April 1, 2002 Share Posted April 1, 2002 Get on the waiting list soon. Michael Voigt was out at our West End Gun Club match last weekend and said there were over 400 people in the waiting list, and to book a hotel room ASAP. If they ever get down to my name I'll be camping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricW Posted April 1, 2002 Share Posted April 1, 2002 I live near Portland, so I'm going, slot or no slot. I'm not going to pass up the chance to see the big dogs run and gun for anything. Thanks for the help guys! E P.S. Just a thought, with the huge backlog for slots for both Factory and Racegun Nationals, I have to be hopeful about the future of USPSA. It really seems that people like Mike Voigt's vision for USPSA. I sure do. Let's hope it's a trend. I just can't wait.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FasterThanLight Posted April 1, 2002 Share Posted April 1, 2002 Shooter Grrl, I would love to tag along and save some money... I am also booked at the Best Western. I have not made my flight arrangements yet. I was thinking about flying in on the 24th. What do you think? Eric Sites A42091 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shooter Grrl Posted April 2, 2002 Share Posted April 2, 2002 Eric S - I saw a post on the IPSC list that said the 24th was just registration, so you should be okay flying in then. To the rest of youse - the truck is full now :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ErikW Posted April 2, 2002 Share Posted April 2, 2002 EricS and EricW, you two will have to use pseudonyms if you're on my squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricW Posted April 2, 2002 Share Posted April 2, 2002 Erik, I'm definitely going to have a pseudonym by the end of the match: Pokey. I need to be on a squad where I won't embarass anybody... E Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shooter Grrl Posted April 3, 2002 Share Posted April 3, 2002 Two thoughts - knowing 2 of the Eric/k's I'd say ya'll are gonna get called Larry, Curly & Moe :-) Second - is anybody else shooting Open?? PAT??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ErikW Posted April 4, 2002 Share Posted April 4, 2002 OK, somebody will have to distract Pat long enough for me to put JB Weld in all those ports in his gun. Otherwise we're gonna suffer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shred Posted April 4, 2002 Author Share Posted April 4, 2002 I'll be shooting Open. Eric(Whichever) will have to keep the JB Weld away though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
