I'll be there with an open seat mid Friday to Monday. Probably camping on the left side of the lakebed, up a ways. Look me up if you want a ride. Couple friends will have open seats, too.

Matt and Rich did, I'm not sure If Paul did it because he was in the lead and he's a fast son of a gun:eek:.
That sucks that you cut your tire at the very starting of the trail. While you were working on that I ripped my coil spring retainer off and we were busy welding that back on.
I had a great time wheeling with all of you and hope to see you guys out there again.

Me too.

I've got some sick pics of you Rick, I'll get them uploaded right now and send them to you guys. Hope the steering box did'nt blow again on monday!

Paul S. kept getting his diff hung, but Matt and I made it through. I finally got out the top without getting redicously hung up and having to winch out, so I was happy. I need some 4d's.


Paul, thanks for the pics. Good wheeling with you, glad we hooked up. There's some good obstacles on the new section of Hwy 20, and the steep out at the top is a real bitch.........stay on it baby! :D

Serious, I was wondering the same thing. If you stack it you should pull it all out when your done:shaking:

Seeing crap like that make me think the attitude of keeping the new 'buggy trails' fairly secret is the right thing to do.

If people started talking about how hardcore FOL is and where the trail was there'd be a bunch of faggin Jeep guys on 33s out there the next weekend stacking it into a freeway. After that they'd come home and start bragging about how they all 'owned' the trail:shaking:

He endoed, landed on his lid, and rolled sideways getting wedged in between a couple rocks, which saved him from rolling all the way down!

That's why it takes an invite to wheel with BTG. Not a bad idea to keep them secret.

Not too bad considering.

Broken rear down bar
blown up link joint
Hydro ram torn from the tie rod
The pink is all scratched (Which is bad when you scratch the pink I think):flipoff2:
Bent panhards or at least the rear one
Broken fittings on one of the "Up yours shocks"
Possibly one or more bent front shocks but we have not gotten there yet.

There is more I just can't remember.

Brandon give me a call

well??? were heading down there the 22nd PLENTY of time to fix your buggy, mount some 39.5's and not get denied. Its only because your 38's are now worn down to 35's :flipoff2:
