Don't rub it in. I have enough crap to deal with aside from thinking about the S1.

I drover her hard and put her away wet. I don't want to think about it for a while, so I hid it behind the gate.

The 'flop' on Rocker Knocker was an interesting experience. I messed around for about 5 minutes, no sucess, so I tried it a little more sharply with a little more throttle, and apparently those two things were the wrong thing to do.

Flopped it over on the LHS, wrinkled the wing, scared the shiat out of my son until he saw me pop up and wave to him.

Got it tipped back up, started her up, Cooper winched me up (in the sake of time/sanity) and I drove the rest of the trail w/out incident.

The taco'd drag link was just being stupid.

I think Tisdale took 2x as many trail pics as I did. I don't have a single one of anything we did on the trail. My son, however, burned a whole roll of film in 'mom's' camera so I should get that roll processed and post a few I s'pose.

That is all.

Go Slade!!!! give 'em hell!!!

Oh wait... I forgot, we're already off the trail.

Lot's of breakage at this year's rally. Good Times were had by all. Don't let Dekkard get off that easy. He managed to bend the frame side of the trailing arm mount. Not sure how he did that.

Oh yeah and then there is the finger incident!!
