We need to figure out the Evans Creek ride. It will rain all week long so the lower trails will be a mud bath. The upper trails will be covered in snow, snow level down to 2500' .

Maybe we need to choose a new ride location. Chime in everyone with your ride suggestions.

Certain PSAR members are calling themselves Northerners, a phrase tagged by themselves, therefore splitting the ranks, myself originally being from "The South", and being related to Robert E. Lee, I resort back to my roots and call ya'll Yankees [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]
Larry, if Puyallup is "South" I must be south of the Equator down in Chehalis! IMO one must be south of the big urban centers to be from the "South." You are more like those folks in the mid-Atlantic, nothing distinquishable, partly southern influence but run by Nothern influences. Like they say about Washington D.C., "A city of Southern efficiency and Northern charm." That certainly could apply to King County. South? You are funny.

I'm up for anything. If we are going to skip Evans Creek, it might be a good time to check out Capitol Forest and see how it's changed since last Fall. We could meet for breakfast at the Place?

BTW, the Vinson is back in action. Put the final pieces back on yesterday. The new bumper and lights look really good. Some parts are still pretty tweaked (the front rack was bent more than I anticipated), so it was a trick getting everything bolted back in place. But, it's done and the test drive went fine.

I have the sweetest Pit crew around man [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] Thanx. After riding it on sunday for a lil while i notices a couple things. 1 the throw on the rear brake pedel gismo is longer. so im gonna raise it up a lil bit and that should also remedy the brake light stayin on issue. another thing i noticed. I need about 50 more hp to run the gears and tire setup thats on it. So im in search for a 42 rear to go with a 12 front. Umm the shox. HOLY CHIT. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] I didnt go out on the trails or nothin just down the roads playin a like bit feelin it out. before when i would punch it would just come up all the time. now she just squats down and gets out. i have to ask for it to wheelie once i hit second. saweeet. and its easy to hold it down in first. almost feels like i threw a longer swing arm on or sompin. another thing i notice. Do not ride in street shoes when its wet out [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] My sneakers got filthy muddy with no heel gaurds. New Pegs feeeel sooo nice and the direct shifter is all the rage [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] Looks as though i may need new A-arms and a right front spindle thingy. DAMMIT [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/img] oh well thats life of riding like an idiot [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] I got these sweet Billet Tie rods by modquad. pretty nice set. Mine were apperantly bent pretty good from all my Highspeed interactions with stumps n trees [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] The nerfs will only require me to drill 1 hole in each mounting plate. so thats sweet. No cutting or fabbing to git r done [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

Well my friend, I ran out of concrete, it's raining and I'm tired. I'll finish up the posts this week, then the fun part of it starts, rails and boards,
<u>digging post holes and mixing concrete is too much work </u>,
rails and boards are easy. Oh, and by the way, the fence doesn't keep me from riding, wanting to spend quality time with my beautiful wife does
OK, HappaDontWantNoHelp [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img].................

No whining now. Help was offered a couple times,
but nnnoooooooooooo......had to do it yourself [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

Something about wanting HottieWood to feel sorry for you having to do it all by yourself,
so she would let you go riding with your buddies whenever you wanted..[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]


Now, one final offer...
I'm off all week. We can hammer out all those rails and pickets in no time.
I'll bring my stringline, compressors & nail gun, and drill gun.
All you need are the boards, screws, and brackets.
We'll fly right through it..........
weellllllllllllllllllllllllllll ??????????????

It hasn't been raining here at all [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
Partly sunny at times [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
wahoooooooo......

Well, ASh is all done racing at Oakwood [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]
Next we'll be at Pacific Raceways with everybody else going[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

She couldn't have finished up any better at all. I was hammering on her all weekend to step it up and give it her all for the last weekend, to give her a good boost for the next series. She did a little bit.
Until the very last Main. She smoked the holeshot and took the lead over the kid that got first place almost all year long and won the series for that class. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
Holy Cow, I haven't seen her go so fast or launch off the jumps all year long [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
She wanted nothing to do with letting him pass her. She held him off for 3 of the 5 laps [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
Coming into each corner, she'd set herself up for where she wanted to be for the next corner.
She did great, but once he was able to get next to her, his quad was just enough faster he was able to get past her on one of the straightaways [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]
It was the best race those two had all year, it was great.
We were both pretty excited.
I wish we would have got there for the whole series. But they will be racing each other again and Pacific Raceways.

So now the fun start....................

I need to find her another 90 to build up for racing.
Want to keep the LT80 as stock as it is for the brother and sister to learn on.....

Looking at the Kasea, Blast, maybe Dinli, and not sure what else ????????????
I research things to death (overkill), so I may just do a little and pick one........
I don't know much about motors, buiding them up, etc etc. So I have lots to learn.
Maybe I'll have to hire a good Crew Chief [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

This is gonna be fun [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
