Chris Geiger 09-28-2002, 08:47 PM Ok the first day is over. No idea on scores and the event ran late and I think a few people will have to finish first day runs the second day. These are some tough trails. I have not seen eny rid alongs even though it's worth 5 extra points. Roggy laid out some wild lines that were just crazy (and fun too). I hope to post scores tomorrow night after the event.
For now here are a few pics...

HNRYS69 09-28-2002, 09:06 PM Very cool... Im going up tomarrow around 11am, hope I can still see alot )
Chris Geiger 09-28-2002, 09:10 PM Kelly Clifford showed no fear and she drove off the edge of a huge cliff. I counted three complete rolls before she stopped. With a little minor work the rigs was back in action. Later a 44 axle let go killing the knuckle ball joints and took here out for the rest of the day. I have never seen a girl change an axle! Kelly gets it!

We had a blast. The rocks beat the shit out of us! Walker needs a new driver side door now!
I did not see John run, but I did pass him on the access road and he said he broke a birfield. That's all I know.
SLO_Crawlers 09-28-2002, 09:23 PM Thanks Chris, tomorrow should be a blast for you guys.

Old Scout 09-28-2002, 09:50 PM Hey Chris use the uploader. Lance fixed it ;D
Glenn 09-28-2002, 10:23 PM Me too... :whew: Calrocs has a new 'thang' for this event. Calrocs Radio... We were broadcasting over loudspeakers and also on FM 93.3 on your radio dial. Somehow I ended up being the 'Voice of Calrocs' since the other prospect didn't show up. Even though I've never done any announcing before, I gave it my best shot. Got a lot of good feedback and no complaints so I guess I did ok. It's kinda tough to find things to talk about all friggin day long. It was ccccccold up there early in the morning and again late in the evening when the sun went down and the clouds and wind took over. Had a great crowd and some incredible action.
Thanks to 'Smart Ass' from the bb (real name Dane) and David for setting up the FM station and getting everything hooked up.
I came home to take care of some things but I'll be back up there in the morning and back on the air for the days events. Come up and watch the best of the best duke it out for the championships for the 2002 Calrocs season. This is the last event, you know. Don't miss out. Tomorrow is gonna be GREAT.... See ya up there.
Remember, 93.3 on your FM dial. You can pick me up all the way down in the parking lot...:D:D:D:D
Jayrockn7 09-28-2002, 10:23 PM Lance is going to have to get his own rig soon, Kelly needs it for herself:eek: Man I've never seen a chick do chit like this, must be one hella sight:D

rockmutt 09-29-2002, 08:29 PM what wasnt lance spottin for Shaffer on the second day?
Dychen 09-29-2002, 08:52 PM i know for a fact DSI had his spotter ride for one course, the bottom one walker evens flipped on so he could get the -5 points (ended up with 38 and never got off the first rock :D )
that yellow thing is a samurai based rock buggy built by brent from www.trailtough.com
Pathmaker 09-29-2002, 08:58 PM that 8 wheeler impressed me. i was kinda skeptical, but when i saw it, it made everything look easy. worked well.

No, full hydro...that thing was one of the cleanest rigs I have ever seen....very nice craftsmanship and the nicest guys you'll ever meet ( from Trail Tough )...... and would tell you anything you wanted to know about the rig.....Let me just say (after my undecided opinion included) that it worked very well.......they also (like anyone) had some things to change, like the front and rear hydro on the wheel only (the rear could only go with the fronts or opposite according to the front adjustment) they need it to be lever rear.
Rich did a great job it was fun.....and Hard!!!!!!!!! I had a great time even after I rolled end over end and decided not to continue due to cage integrity....lots of sweet action..

Kelly had a little blood sugar problem that needed to be checked over at thye hospital after the paramedics couldn't turn it around. Lance went with her in the ambulance.
When I left the event, she had been able to get released and was talking to one of the paramedics that had worked on her in the parking lot. Shee looked to be doing better, but just a little worn out.

Walker and I packed up and just got on the road about an hour ago. I think we will arive home by about 6AM.
We had a great weekend and took first place for the series in Pro modified class!
