You guys should have went to Little Sahara with us over the weekend. That is the wildest ride I have ever been on. We were running with the two SandCars (David & Roger *** ) from Ft. Worth on Friday evening. Rolling over the crest of the dunes and running horizonal at 70+ mph is a rush, especially when the front end comes off the ground 2-3 ft. Wheelies at 70+ mph is wild, especially is you are going horizontal with the world. I even spoked myself a couple of times. The recent mods to the engine and new tranny in the sand rail are a perfect combo.

I had to resort to the V-Force on Sunday. My foot was a liitle heavy when we came off the dune and bottomed the rear susspension out. It stripped the teeth off the inner splines inside the rear torsion housing. Well it is time to get out the torch and welder. I think I will use a "King Kong" housing this time. It will be ready for the fall runs.

We had a blast.

The Suzuki Survives........

Haven't even made the first payment on it and I have already rolled the Suzuki (and myself) down the side of a mountain with jagged rocks and sticks and it DID NOT EVEN SCRATCH THE PLASTIC. It landed upside down on me and I expected to see all kinds of carnage when I finally had the nerve to look (after my uncle pulled it off of me) but it was in almost perfect condition. I do have a small place where the plastic came apart but I can use a screw driver to screw it back on. The machine should be okay. I broke its fall. My back is really sore and my left hand was crushed under the machine, the hand is useable just really swollen abd sore to the touch.

Didn't even know you got a new ride Bob.

Congratulations!

 

What did you get Bob?

 

Thanks Mike and Tyler

Aaron, I got a Suzuki Twin Peaks 700 4x4. I guess I got it May 28. Haven't posted much been really busy with work and then I went camping. I have to take it over today for the "post break in " check up. I know its probably a rip off and not necessary but I guess I will go a long and be a sheep to the face less, soul less machine that we call corporate American industry and pay them their Judas blood money. I still can't belive that I rolled it in that kind of terrain (Steep hill. sharp jagged rocks, 4 ft sapplings, deep holes etc) and it didnt even scrath the pastic. Of course I guess a lot of it had to do with the fact that it mostly landed on ME and not the sharp rocks.

Ladies and Gentlemen,

Do we want to have a meeting on Saturday, June 19, 2004? Do we want to have it on the river or at the restaurant? Do we want to have it later in the day so it will be cooler? Any information and input would be greatly appreciated.

The 19th sounds good to me. Just tell me a time. We might want to ride at the river before the meeting.Brent

 

19th is good for me too. I'd like to ride at the river. And if anyone is hungry we can cook out.... BYOBB ...... bring your own beef and beer [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
