Looking for Moab 2000 Photo

[GJarrett]

I tried to find it on our site but couldn't....

During our Moab 2000 run, Rob "Gofast" Robertson ripped a one-inch gash into his BFG sidewall on the Steelbender trail. As I recall the event, it was Rick that pulled out a Safety Seal plug kit to attempt a fix. We inserted several Safety Seal plugs into Rob's sidewall, aired the tire up on the trail, and he successfully finished the rest of the trail with that tire on his rig.

In a suggestion I made concerning the quality of Safety Seal plug kits, I recounted this story on another site and it is understandably not being believed. I clearly recall a photo of the fix showing Rob's sidewall with all of those plugs sticking out of it and cannot find it.

Does anyone still have that photo / or a link to it?

I saw that not too long ago. I'll look for it and report back.

Is that the pic with the duct tape on the side too?

That's the one I was saw recently. Although I think there used to be more pics of it, but all of the links I've found of that trip are dead.

I saw references to duct tape put over it.. but the refrences say that the pic was gone.. They also say the tape was a joke done by someone else after the plug repair...

That photo will work fine. I had tried to find one of the photos of Rob's sidewall - but like Colin wrote, all of those old photo links are bad now.

Thanks!
