patooyee 04-30-2002, 09:05 AM Sorry, for the wait, ya'll! www.alloffroad.com has undergone a major overhaul and is finally done! There is a writeup there about ERoCC with about 30 pics. Once you're done there, go to my site, www.patooyee.com to see the rest of the ~200 pics! An aftermath shot of the Unimog roll can be found there. Have fun!

bigdude 04-30-2002, 09:40 AM landing those planes with his welding gloves on
man everybody was cracking on those:D They made it easier for him to see my hands (plus they kept my nails pretty :girly: )
morpheus 04-30-2002, 09:50 AM yeah, being light colored like that i bet they really helped out. i think just your attitude and confidence helped him out alot ...
this is why every cage builder should have some centered downsupports on the windshield hoop.

I hear he was running 15 lbs! My view on that is, how much clearance do you really need with portals and 48" tires! I thought he should have run them without any air. I hear that's what you have to do with those big, thick military sidewalls. It was the rear steer that sent him toplling in the end though. I think he would have gone over even if he had 38" tires.

WOW!!
48"s with 15 psi are a disaster on a slick rock!!:eek: they are so thick, stiff and hard with their 10-12 ply sidewalls, they had probably acted as springs and that helped him a lot to jump upwards and perform a wheely.
i guess you're right and such tires should be ran on rocks
with 0 psi(with beadlocks) or close enough to that.
bigdude 04-30-2002, 01:14 PM locking hub internals ?
Close, but it also looks awfully empty in there:D

Thanks!
