What did you think of it? I thought it was appropriate that Toby, 1st alternate, got the cover shot since he came all that way and didn't get to compete :)

Tim, sorry I forgot. Anyway, there's good shots of you and your truck, plus the article you sent them is in there. The one mistake I read was that they said that Jack and I switched places in the 'trap. We didn't, but there is always going to be some mistakes in mags. No biggie. Other then that, I think it was a fair, mostly accurate account of the event. Four Wheeler says there back on track with their vidios and that this one may be their best.
I like to scan-and-post but might get into some copyright infringement.

Advance copy of the mag, or the video?

I'd already gotten a copy of the video off the shelf at the local 4WP by the time the mag got around to sending me a copy... and had played it enough that the wife was sick of it already. :) Probably a month and a half, actually. They didn't send me a copy of the mag at all (well, no special copy--just the regular subscription one) plus the local newsstand had it before the subscription copy showed up anyway. :(

I'd still do it again, though. :)

Shouldn't you all be getting it soon?

I got my copy already in the mail, it's on it's way!

I thought it was a pretty good writeup. I was looking at the 'individual' event scores though, and 'The Frog' looks like he should have finished better than he did? :confused:

Tank trap weighed pretty heavily this year. Look at the tank trap standings compared to the final standings and I bet things will be pretty similar.

Yeah I got the "advanced copy" on monday and my subscription copy came in on tuesday. I was a little disapointed when I saw the mag, not many pics or much of a story, gueas I was just expecting too much. I think it's awesome they put Toby on the cover and did a kick ass article on it, he definatly deserves it!!!!! Wasn't he there the past two years as an alternate? I allmost feel bad I got in instead of him, NOT:flipoff2: Like Indy said, it seems like the Frog should have finished better than he did but it is all about doing well in the right events. The way they scored individual events into the overall seems kinda strange, they say it's all about having a well rounded vehicle but yet the hard core events outweigh the easyer ones big time. I'm not so sure I agree with that, at least to the extreme they took it. If you add up the individual events I won more than any one else but overalled 4th, I gueas it's because I didn't win the "right" ones? Oh well, hell of alot of fun!!!

Nope, sorry.

They did get a good shot of you at the beginning of the mud pit. Just sitting there. The caption reads " after seeing how deep and scary the mud pit was, Tim Dzaman decided to pass on this event ".

Obviously a typo, right? Screwy magazines anyway, they never get it right! :rolleyes:

And JR... Quite teasing me and post some pics you bastard. :flipoff2: :flipoff2: :D

Which picture would you like?
The one at the start of the mud pit or the one back at camp where you working on it with a 2x4 and some glue? :flipoff2: :D
(notice how I didn't say driftwood this time)

I'll see what I can do. Need to get Mar to help me. I don't have enough IQ to do it myself.:rasta:
