And last but not least... my spotter Josh. the roads he built, rocks he moved and on the fly calls he made all weekend were amazing!

Fully badass weekend....by far the most fun I have had in awhile:D

I want to thank all my sponsors too:



Well, that was easy:flipoff2:

Thanks to all the pro's that helped me this weekend, Mello, Dave and Josh, Mike S.... you guys all rock!!

Good Job DSI and Josh, Josh you must be one hell of a spotter :D

Congrats as well to Derek Trent, Brant Bradshaw, Bill Rowlette and Dennis Stanfield :smokin:

We had a great time. Lots of ups and downs. Dave and Josh, you guys killed it. It was great to watch. Big thanks to Mike Shaffer for spotting me and keeping my rig running. Without you, I really would not stand a chance. That show at the end of A4, you all know that was really Mike's doing. I just drive where he tells me to drive. Man, I love the sound of that motor.

Big, big thanks to Sean and Garrett for helping to get the car back running again after we destroyed the carrier bearing. Thanks to Josh and everyone else that took the thing back to Shaffer's on Saturday night to put the final touches on it. Thanks to Mike Moore for keeping the rig looking great and rolling right all weekend. It is really great to not have to think about it.

Thanks to Glenn Bonner and his whole Calrocs crew of judges and support folks. The event was a blast! See you guys in Coloma.

:flipoff2: Thanks Rich... and yea, he really is that good of a spotter... either that or the intensity he put's off scares me into listening!

Having Moore there was such an amazing help, it's hard to even describe. he was on top of everything all weekend, wiping panels, checking pressures, grabbing water's moving the buggy, can't say enough thanks for all his help! He's truly one of the biggest asset's to the team!

So where in Coloma is the next event? I wish I was going to be in town... :(

You listen :laughing: :laughing: It's much better to tell you to shut the F up and go sit on rock until you decide to listen :flipoff2:

Good job this weekend

Good Job DSI, very good driving. You smoked everyone! I needed that traction control motor you had.

Yoder..

I apologize for not bringing my kids to the event. You win at every one they go to :smokin: My bad, but I had to shoot this one and they would have been a pain in my ass. :homer:

Cody right??

You guys did great..... way to represent in a rig we all knew was a great ride;)
I thought I was the only one that refered to it as the bassboat:D

I think I heard several people call it that during the weekend :laughing:

Great event, unfortunately I didn't really get to watch the promods much since I was helping out Dennis and Mike run both 35" and unlimited. Crazy bastards. I think they were regretting that decision by the end of the weekend :laughing:

Good thing for FOE you bailed though, who would want to buy a pin from an ugly mug like you? :flipoff2: Tracey raised some money for FOE in the booth, so we'll have to hook up so I can get it to you before I drink it all.

thanks Derek and Lisa had a great time for my first comp fun time competing with you , learned alot , and can't wait tell the next one :D

jeremy hengl

I too had a great time. some nasty rolls. and wasted my junk. Looks like it's new buggy time.

Way to go Derek and Lisa (and the rest!)

Derek, how does that new set-up feel in the rocks?

Looks like it was a great turn out, great job guys and gals..

Derek, how does that new set-up feel in the rocks?

It was set up so well that he ran this one in reverse :D

Looks like he crunched the passenger side panel. :eek:











I'll just add it to the bill. :flipoff2: (wut, I gotta look good!)

Come on Chris They're not that bad :smokin:

Looks like he crunched the passenger side panel. :eek:


From what I remember, I really don't think there was much damage... He did not roll it hard into the boulder.

Everyone else was coming up the hill using the line to the left in the pic, but once they got to that spot, It was a bitch going right and getting a good angle up the steep part of the climb.

Derek played it smart and actually started in reverse and BACKED up the hill to get a better angle on the steep part. The problem was the rig just could not get enough grip to push it up the climb becuase his rear tires were spinning in dirt. He kept working it on that rock, trying to get the angle and ended up like that.

From what I remember, I really don't think there was much damage... He did not roll it hard into the boulder.



OOPS!

Guess I was wrong! LOL!

The new shock valving works very well. The car feels very stable and responsive for how high it sits. It got tippy at times but I could always drive out of it. I thought about lowering the ride height before the comp but I decided to leave it alone and just learn to drive the car. It is cool that I can go from a crawling comp straight to the motocross track.

Thanks to everyone who helped with calrocs!

and BIG THANKS to the guys at torchmate for hookin me up with a tie rod end so i could compete on sunday.

I had a lot of fun!

Cant wait for the next one
