Geesh Bill..............you and the ground have quite a history!!!:D

Great Pics Rick! Good to see Tom's Zuk out there!

Looks like ya'll had some fun..

RangerX, could you have gotten any closer to rocks there? :)
 






Hmm, looks like a precurser to the T-haven run. Glad you guys had fun and stayed rubber side down. Now I know why Bill has that cage. :)

Well, I'm home.

The F150 died at 55mph, on I10 in San Berdino, right in the middle of a construction zone. That means no shoulders for what seemed like miles! Somehow, I coasted it to a offramp area that had a small pull out. Waited a few minutes, and it proceeded to start and run, but it was totally gutless. Off it goes to the dealership later this week.

I had a fun, wheeling the zuk. The rubbing was chunking the tires pretty good, but it was awesome to go off camber and not really worry about putting it on it's side.. But the headstands, those are a rush. :) Thankfully, the crawler gears make them easier to do (no real momentum to worry about kicking the rear over you)

And watching Rick beat the daylights out of his bent rim was entertaining for a few minutes!

Yeah, the first thing I thought about when I saw this pic was, "don't hit the brakes!". LOL Looks like fun.

Any video of this? Anyone? Anyone? LOL
 






Man that sure beats what i did on newyears eve. I wish I had a 4x4 that could come play with you guys. Jopefully someday soon i will. As always rick great pics.

Tom I know what you mean. Last headstand I did, I stalled it out and over I went! :roll:
 






Oh. I decided Tom actually is driving a 1/4 scale Explorer Sport :D

Bill uses his sheetmetal a lot to round out the corners in the T-Haven trenches :D

Looks like a blast! Good to see pics of Tom's rig in action. Great photos Rick :) :D
 






Does that qualify as an R/C car then Rick? heh heh:p

Yeah Bill, thanks for rounding those corners off for those of us who don't want to ruin out pretty little new trucks. :p I was going to say that I'll follow Bill, then I remember how he wheels...

Hey Tom I've come to the conclusion you need a rig as wide as a Hummer to keep you from tipping. I've never seen a pic of you with the tires stuffed and the rig level:D Do you have any? See ya soon.

I say we vote on whether to let Bill be a trailboss for the Jan. Annual Truckhaven Run.
I'll cast the first vote for - NO. :nono:
 






Hey Tom is that with the SAS already. Ah the memories.

John the advantage of having Bill as trail boss is seeing what line not to pick:D You just have to learn how to read him:eek:
 






HEY! I resemble that remark!
