No brakes or lockers! No time before MAR to finish. Trying to get it sorted for Halloween Extreme.

Wife just bought a digi cam tonight. Got to figure out how to use it.

marty- unfortunately i didnt. absolutely nobody under the age of 18 as a passenger or driver, no exceptions. in a few years :D

ron, what route are you taking to HX? chances are it runs right near (a few miles) my house, so it would be great to meet up for a little while so i could check out the rover. email me if you want.

Why is there an age limit? Over 16 and you can drive...so why not off road? Not saying this is a stupid rule in the least, but failing to see the logic behind it... what was the reason?

the guy who runs the event owns the property, called the Hope Center. it is a few hundred acres of kick ass terrain in midcoast maine. last year at the halloween extreme a guy was severely injured (lost an eye) through incorrect hi lift jack usage. the person did not go after Ed Bear (owner), but i think that it scared Ed quite a bit. so now he has a hefty insurance policy that has set these restrictions.

I think you got your answer there Way. I have seen quite a few limits on age lately, and I can't always say that I disagree. Not everyone has someone to introduce them to the need for intestinal fortitude like 9V's elders do (totaly assuming here) and as soon as you make exceptions, you get in trouble.


9V,
Can you at least spectate? Take Pictures?

well,

no lockers because I have no vacuum or lines.

I really need a SIII brake set up or better and probably a vacuum resivoir. I would likely trailer the series up there, if not the wife's disco would be do ok.

I also need to clean up the mounting a bit.

I have not touched a high lift since last Halloween extreme, probably never will, I just cringe and get all freaked out, when I see one.

The no dog thing is got me in a bind as wife will be in Italy so fluffy puppy really needs to come along with me, we will see, got to make up my mind. Might go work on the trials course instead
