Well yesterday was not the best day. I went out wheeln and I was having some trouble turning, so I unlocked the one hub to be able to turn better and then I got into position and didn't lock it back up and started in and SNAP went the axle shaft. Looks like it time to go with the warn shafts with CTM's.

Well after all that happened I was on my way up to a friends house to watch the fight, and he lives at the end of a dirt road, so I was doing a little ralley racing down the road. It was all fun until I go over this waterway in the road and it sends me across the road towards the cliff on the other side. Now I am heading not only towards the cliff, but there are 3 trees in front of me. So what to do now. Well first I suck my seat up my ass.:D and just stay on the gas and try to drift through the turn. Well first my front tire rubs the first tree and kind of bounces off, and the slam the rear tire (39.5x18 bogger at about 4psi) hits the tree and pushes me back to the middle of the road. Here I am thinking that I just bent everything in the right rear, and I start to hear this noise that is coming from the rear tire. Well all the really happened is that for one I had to change my shorts, other than that I just pinched the tire into the rim and put about a 3-4" cut in the tire, so now I have to get a new one, but I guess it could have been a lot worse.

Believe it or not I was not drinking. If I were I probably would not have hit the tree.:beer:

Well if there was more air in the tires it most likely would have done more damage not having the tire to take the blow. And you can drive around with very little psi in a bogger, for the street I only run 15psi.:flipoff2:
