The clubs do not have the money any more to have their own booths. It's a District world now. The Districts who have a booth likely let any of their clubs that wish to, help man the booth.

You don’t need more than 144 x 1.450 studs.       I ran 144 last year with double backers and don’t think I would do it again.   I could really feel a vibration that I am positive came from the backers/studs.   That being said the grip was fantastic.       

That pattern and # make sense to me, probably what I would be running if it were mine.  

I too was very sore about the lack of club presence and no maps. I pay good money to go to the show to get all the kit I want/need. I aint a tech bro im a map and go kind of man. That was a fail and I was going to mention in my first post but thought I would be alone on the map issue. Its nice to see Im not the only one.   Make a Map great again 🤓    

That's how we planned the days. Get into town, fill the gas tanks, hit the Beer Store if necessary and park/unpack the sleds before dark.
