so I added a new album to my gallery with pics from this past Saturday.. we had a group of people go out to Comanchee Ridge on Saturday, and I wasnt able to go (becuz of paperwork that was stressing me out) when a much larger group went out there on Sunday
from what I heard one guy totalled his 4-runner when he rolled end over end and back on to his wheels again on Sunday, totalling his truck.. yet he was uninjured.. and a friend of James and I got water in his transmission with his dodge dually 4x4.. I dont know about anyone else having any major problems on Sunday, but I can try and paste in some pics that James put elsewhere on the internet (aka MUD)
anyways, I changed my avatar pic.. I was incouraged to go dig out an area of one of the pits.. so I was going back and forth in 2wd till I got stuck.. then I went to 4high and then 4low.. too late, I was stuck with the water reaching my doors.. remember Im 10 inches over stock so thats pretty high up.. it took 2 vehicles pulling together, from drier ground, to get me out..
yeah, as soon as I could I got the fluids changed out in my diffs and did a little lubing here and there.. etc.. (Edit: plus taking off the tires, etc) I have lots more cleaning to do before the Corpus Christi Heatwave in a month..
these pits arent so bad when no one plays in them for a while, but then when people start going back and forth in them, they get really nasty.. I actually made it across the big pit a few times.. the one Mud broke axles in on two seperate occasions with his f150 on 44s.. which he is currently selling..
anyways.. I just wanted to show that Im still not a mall crawler..
oh and this was the first time Ive ever played on an ATV offroad.. it was fun.. Mud's is a 500.. he told me there is a more powerful one now, but the 500 is strong enough to scare me.. there were times on trails when I was thinking I should of been wearing a helmet.. so much power.. next time I wanna take a helmet with us..
