I have two stocks for sure, no suitable mod tho.
Count me in please. I'll need to go shopping for a kenner. I'll do my best to arrive on time. : )
Pleased to join with stocks + mod
I'm in for the stock categories. Sounds like a blast.
I'll probably send some stocks.
In for sure! Are we able to each send two stock and then build one mod together? No worries if not but I told Kai I'd ask. Our 30-40gg MBX/HW collections look very different from one another's. Thanks for the consideration!
In for the stock race.

Definitely in for stock. Not sure about the mod race. I don't have any turbo trams. Yet
I'm in, not sure of the mix
