KOH!

Well Eddie and I made it! We had a lot of obstacles but we finished I heard 24 or 26 out of 44 starters. We were the last to cross the finish line, everyone else DNF'd. They gave up. We drew a 17 at the start line, by mile 23 we were in 4th place and running well, except for over heated P.S. We had the helicopter following for quite a while, that was exciting. Then while putting my "C" collar back on I hit a really sharp, large rock in the middle of an open sand wash. I blew the right front tire and broke the Pan Hard arm bracket, after two welding jobs we were moving. Then the fuel injection started acting up. At some point we cracked the front diff. cover and were loosing gear oil, smashed Eddies custom exhaust. The front ARB line broke ended up frying the compressor, it seized, then after it cooled down a hammer fixed the compressor, we fixed the front air line and were on our way, . We kept going then after the last check point we lost the T case, and limped it home in first gear. Our greeting at the finish line was incredible! We were the only full size, full bodied, street legal licensed car to finish. Not to bad for what Jeepers call a Grocery getter!

Thanks Eddie for letting me destroy your new very nice car.....

I know where there is a slightly used D90 for sale if anyone is interested!

Way to go Carey! We are all extremely proud of you! Thank you for stepping up for all the rover owners.

It was an honor to spend some time with you before the race!

This thread is definitely worthless without pics.

Nice job Carey!

congrats Carey!

We all want to buy the D90, but first need to see pics!

Good on you! Pictures?

Hi Carey,

Good job. I remember seeing Eddie's white Range Rover roll into the motel parking lot at the 2nd Twist Off in Fruita - first time I'd seen a Rangie with big tires and Sawzalled wheel wells in person.

The race results lists Carey and other racers as still on course when the race finished.
What does that mean? How did the the guys from Pikes Peak rover do, I see there rangie in the pictures of the race.

I spoke with Jeff on Sunday he told me the posting on the board about results was done right after the race by a volunteer. The official results will be coming soon. The post showed 3 of us still on course. I was told the other 2 on the course with us did not finish. Times and positions will be placed soon. I also was told a DVD is going to be made. I am sorry we have no pictures of us. All of our crew was working!

Thanks for the support of the Rover community!

congrats to you and Eddie!

The spread sheet Pirate posted has a few glitches in regards to times. It was a long day for our volunteers and they missed a few times at the end. Our start and finish times are correct however.

Congrats on the finish Tuff D 90. Great job for a street legal rig with a full body.
