Has anyone else told a family member or a coworker you were going to a chainsaw GTG. They say a what, and what do you do there? I try to explain running saws working on and talking about saws. People don't get it at all, so now I just say I'm going out of town and leave it at that.

Yeah I get that too, people just don't get it, I guess to each our own:)

Yeah!

I got the strangest look from a girl at work who, along with her husband drove halfway across the country to WATCH Harley Davidson drag races.:dizzy:

Ha Ha,just went through that with my wife.Of course she had to ask"what does GTG stand for?"and I honestly didn't have any idea.Someone please fill me in.
Anyway I'm pretty much committed to coming since you CAD infested whores enticed me into grinding on a perfectly good 5100 cylinder.Just got finished and I'm about half afraid to run it.Sounds like it's fixing to blow.
Looking forward to some second opinions on tuning now that my tachometer is no longer of use(limited coil).
Looking forward to getting together with you knuckleheads
Drive Carefully,Ron
BTW My transportation will be 68cc.2 stroke powered

GTG= get to gether.
 
I just knew you'd be the guy to figure it out, however I wasn't expecting the quote thing.:hmm3grin2orange:

So far I like the saw, the extra weight is not even worth mentioning, it really likes to rev, and it starts super easy. Does anywone know if the 362's have a rev limited coil? my saw sure acts like it does.

Not a bad looking saw.

So, you think that thing will hang with a 262XP????
 
I think I now know, why Nik gets so excited about going to a GTG! :D
This will be my first one. Its only wednesday, and I started loading the truck! LOL, I will bring 2 basswood, 10" square cants, and a sawbuck, I suppose ya can never have to much wood at one of these things. Was gonna bring more, but figure it will be enough load on the old Ranger traveling that far. Mapquest is telling me 245 miles to Scottsburg, if that is close to where this is? I'm just waiting for some location directions. I sent Eric a PM yesterday morning, havn't heard anything yet, I know he's probably a buisey-bee about now, gettin ready for this!
P.S. I hope the weather guessers are wrong, and we get some dry weather.:(

Gregg,

Gregg,

the cool thing about it is, the more you go to 'em, the more you like 'em. I've met so many good people and can't wait to see them again.
 
lol, I'm only pissin' around. I've never ran a 262, but know it's a legend.:bowdown: Far as I know, the 361 de-throwned it. IMHO, the 362 is a better saw than the 361. My 361, (even before it was modded) was the strongest I've run, the 362 is faster than it was.

I guess we will find out, I've never ran a 361, well at least not a Stihl 361, or a 362........but I think my 361 will lose about any race.....:)

Mine's Snellerized, so it doesn't count as stock.. My BIL has a brand spankin' new 361, I'm hoping he brings it. It has only about 2 tanks through it, cutting cookies and noodling at my place. A pleasure to run, but the most difficult saw to start that I've ever came accross. Hopefully, he'll come and you can run it. He'd lend it to me to take if he doesn't go, but I won't borrow a saw. I'm sure Andre will be happy to let you run his 362.
 
Okay, got the jerky cut and seasoned and the sausage and cheese in the fridge...(did I tell you guys I am allergic to deer blood :censored:)... I also got 4 full racks of baby back ribs to cook for an afternoon snack...Do we a head count or a close number just for good measure?...The way it is going not going to have enough room in the Jeep for any saws...:cry:

Not bringing the trailer...It is a friends and he said I could borrow it when ever I want, but he is building a house right now and is using it to store tools...Don't want to step on toe for the next time...
