I feel bad...all of these runs for one reason or another I can't make it. Sometime, I will make it down. Maybe a winter cliffs run?
Either way, sorry I can't go this time, but I will try next time

aric needs to fire the copilot. and Jman needs to drink some SoBe for ginko biloba or whatever the memory stuff is. either way that looks like it was fun. is that tan one mostly stock? does it have the sway bars attached still?

it down poured sometime after lunch and made our last trip around the park pretty interesting
the tan one is kert and he is riding on 32's with a rear locker and custom front bumper and sliders. pretty much all a second gen needs to get around the cliffs.
mine has 33's, and a rear locker. my bumpers and body lift (and trail damage and bad paint job) make mine look a bit more aggresive, but both vehicles wheel comparably.

I finally got home this evening. I'll post pics tomorrow. I got some good video for youtube as well. It was a fun time wheeling with everyone. I think I cracked my windshield on that drop off. It's down at the bottom in the painted black area though.
