• After witnessing the continued decrease of involvement in the SpotterNetwork staff in serving SN members with troubleshooting issues recently, I have unilaterally decided to terminate the relationship between SpotterNetwork's support and Stormtrack. I have witnessed multiple users unable to receive support weeks after initiating help threads on the forum. I find this lack of response from SpotterNetwork officials disappointing and a failure to hold up their end of the agreement that was made years ago, before I took over management of this site. In my opinion, having Stormtrack users sit and wait for so long to receive help on SpotterNetwork issues on the Stormtrack forums reflects poorly not only on SpotterNetwork, but on Stormtrack and (by association) me as well. Since the issue has not been satisfactorily addressed, I no longer wish for the Stormtrack forum to be associated with SpotterNetwork.

    I apologize to those who continue to have issues with the service and continue to see their issues left unaddressed. Please understand that the connection between ST and SN was put in place long before I had any say over it. But now that I am the "captain of this ship," it is within my right (nay, duty) to make adjustments as I see necessary. Ending this relationship is such an adjustment.

    For those who continue to need help, I recommend navigating a web browswer to SpotterNetwork's About page, and seeking the individuals listed on that page for all further inquiries about SpotterNetwork.

    From this moment forward, the SpotterNetwork sub-forum has been hidden/deleted and there will be no assurance that any SpotterNetwork issues brought up in any of Stormtrack's other sub-forums will be addressed. Do not rely on Stormtrack for help with SpotterNetwork issues.

    Sincerely, Jeff D.

Favorite Chaser Food

A visual of what I typically take on a chase. Just bought the new cooler, drinks and snacks yesterday for the next few days of chasing. Have to wait until I go to a Love's station to get the beef jerky.

Great topic! I prepare most of my own meals on long trips. I bring along a 12v cooler and a small propane stove. I'll try to find a place to get some hot coffee in the morning though, and the odd time I treat myself to a breakfast. Otherwise here's what I bring along:

Cereal (good to eat right out of the box or sometimes with milk in the AM)
Granola
Trail Mix/Nuts/Dried fruit
yogurt
fresh fruit (small amount - top up as needed)
raw veggies (baby carrots, broccoli, cauliflower, pea-pods)
canned goods (pasta, stew, soup, chili etc.)
backpacking food (sometimes - various meals)
beef jerky
peanut butter
bread/buns
crackers
tea
milk
juices/drinks (no sodas though)
5 gallon jug water

Basically I try to have a decent breakfast and then nibble at healthy stuff throughout the day. I find this keeps me alert and healthy. At dinner time I'll heat up a can of something or one of the backpacking type meals.
 
Mechanically Separated Chicken

I'm not sure how else you separate a chicken. Chemically? electrically? Electrically separated chicken is unacceptable.

It reminds me of being on I-80 through Iowa and getting behind the truck labeled "Hot Rendered Swine Product".
 
We always carry cereal, sugar, tea, coffee, UHT & fresh milk, Walgreens Macadamia nuts & bottled water, cheese & onion crisps - have a good breakfast & have either smoked turkey & cheese sandwich or hot dog for lunch. Guilty of all variety of takeaway (except Wendy's) in the evening, followed by cereal....
 
I just finished up my first six weeks on the road...

The chocolate Cliff bars and starbucks light vanilla doubleshots got me through it... Even ended up handing them out to some members or the crew I was with.

Definitely came in handy on many occasions!
