Title: Sunday 21 Oct run
Post by: VooDoo on October 15, 2012, 08:59:50 PM
Heading to McClain on Sunday Meet 9:30 at the out of place brown building(or store as its sometimes called).

we are planing to push our skills a bit.

suggesting:
  33in tires
 front and rear tow points
 a bit of a lift wont hurt.
 a good patient attitude

Jarma is leading so a death wish would be an asset!!!  ;D

I have some ideas on what we could run but it is really weather depending, whether its snow or rain..... ;D I'd encourage anyone with a little extra ground clearance to come along it will be a fun day.

don't worry.  I'm sure it'll be 20 degrees and sunny out.  You should dress in shorts and a t-shirt...

 If you saw a couple minutes of what we were doing last run (lol or what Moe was doing..I haven't seen the video )  that doesn't represent last weekend or whats going on this weekend, you should come out. Dennis you will have fun guaranteed.... particularly if you follow Dave's able advice. He followed it himself last time...dedication or insanity probably a good mix....jeez that sounds dangerous

Jamal likes to wear fancy white sneakers when he wheels. Apparently he can work the skinny pedal a bit better lol

Hope you guys had a good time, I made it home no issues.

It was in fact an axle shaft, it broke right outside the carrier. Removed the remaining shaft from the carrier and it is a little scarred, carrier bearing cracked but otherwise its fine.  E-locker 1    Axle shaft 0

Jamal led us on a fun trail. After the shaft broke we got him back to the trail and continued. Had some more fun in the mud and water... Until my alternator pooped the bed. Had enough juice to get me to the car wash and home. In the end the trails were fun. Get out to McLean before it closes for the season, trails are fun right now:)
