W/out knowing any of this and where other folks "normal" spots are, this will be hard. I'll see about getting a map drawn up and posted by weeks end.
    That is the area I was talking about.

    I agree with Gary on the tuff $hit about parking in someone's spot. I had "my spot" at ECR for two years then this last year some of our own guys took it. First come, first served.

    Think of last year with all the big rigs up on the hill with us. Now think of all those people parking in the space that is left. Now think if it rains.......

    It's all up for grabs once you shuffle one big group... the week before we need a good headcount so the early birds can stake the claim.

    TT will be using the 3.1. And we may not be the only group doing so as well...

    MSR Parking Map.pdf

    Here is a (borrowed) map of MSR parking areas. I don't know if it's to scale, but it gives you an idea.

    Please expand on this statement for those of us that are on the fence about attending the sardine event.

    I sure hope it doesn't rain. There is no where near enough pave parking taking away the skid pad area too. And one foot off the pavement and you are stuck when it rains.

    You are right on that JP...if it does NOT rain there should be plenty of places to park trailers (outside the fence if necessary) and free up hardtop for parking cars, but if it rains....well, that's a totally different deal.

    Also that area is being turned into a useful tech area, as tech where it used to be doesn't work.

    Any of the other groups don't get to park together. Not sure if that's because they don't really try or what though...

    to boil it down into one word: progress!
    So now we need to behave like others that don't hang out together. Doesn't seem like progress to me.
    Seems like NASA Texas is focused on TT and HPDE.
