highriders highlights?
« on: July 02, 2012, 10:17:27 PM »
For those of us who couldn't make Highriders, do any participants/spectators want to share some highlights of how CJA guys did? Highriders.ca doesn't seem to have any info.

AV.NINE did very well until his last run where he broke a t-case

My truck grenaded the oddest parts, I did poorly.

The ZJ had the most phenomenal break I have seen in a while spiral fracturing the front stock diff

Was there other people that are on this site there?

Gotta give props to jenss, after he broke on his first run of the day him and his team got his rig back together with about 30 seconds remaining of the race day. Pretty impressive.

Mike (with the 4 runner) rolled pretty hard.

Mud muncher ended up in the hospital after getting run over (by his jeep) in the Pitts. Broken arm and leg I believe, wishin him all the best.

Brink made the course look easy and was on his way to win until his belt fell off and tcase broke.

Richie was awesome to watch.

Such a good time.... I'll have pics and vids up soon.

The axle that almost killed our weekend was a Ford 9" rear that we scaveneged a spare from a local farmer at half time,.. Jacked up an old F-150 in the field yarded an axle and back to the pits,... it was pretty crazy

I was wondering where you got that from.
Does the farmer know?  :o

I did very well.  No major breakage, bent steering ram, few bent linkages and a bent rim.  Oh, the exaust fell off on the outfield day 2.  Finished 2nd in pro stock.  Great event, and weekend.

I watched and did very well, except for a sunburn and a hangover on day 1, but some new beers and sunscreen had me back up and running for day 2.

Great job to all the guys that showed up, it was an event that should not have been missed.
