anybody going this weekend

I hear crickets....

See you on Saturday morning Matt.

If you have a spotter strap bring it... I have a jury rigged one...

Maybe I'll take a ride up although i got a ton of shit to do.

I'm out. this is the last weekend for me to work on the old house and it goes on the market this coming week. then I will be free!

We ended up getting 8th. We missed shoot out by 3 points . We broke a axle on our first course but we still were able to finsh it with low points. We swithed out the axle and made it back just before it was our turn for the next one. On that course greg rolled due to spotter error, my bad. But greg got me back by running me over on the next course . There we timed out because we got lost and missed a gate. It was a good day can't wait for june.

We also did a fine bit of parallel parking in, around, on top of the cones in course 3, and had we not nicked the cone on the very first course exit we would have been in the shootout.

Anyone have a short side alloy front axle they can spare? The exocage is going to need some new paint before the next comp.

BTW, Chris Lloyd rolled too, coated his hood with oil, but went on to finish the day in a white smoky cacinagenic haze.


At the risk of sounding racist - I have a joke... For years the Klan has been saying that we would have a black president when pigs fly. Now we do have a black president and we have swine flu. Hmmm.

'Here are some photos from the weekend. Don't have the rollover pics of either me or Chris, but will get them on post here...

The next comp is this weekend june 13. Is there anyone going down to watch i thought about just driving down for the day no wheeling though.

I wanted to but I have to work if I want to be able to go to mike's mud bog the following sat.

You better tell that boss to ease up alittle

Not going to make this one either. Will be working on the CJ and YJ and planning on Mikes the following weekend.

Matt are you guys running in this one.

yes.

There is a killer shot of Matt and I in the shoot out.

Chris Lloyd and Jeremy from Rock Krawler both made the teaser shots too.

Not sure it would be legal to reproduce them here, but follow the link...

Great job Matt. 5th for us and 8th for Chris Lloyd.

Congrats guys good job

I'm glad you guys did well I just hope the no one tries to take your well doings and hog the glory like its something they did personally (cough, Maryland Rock Raiders). Its good to see that Greg is still holding strong to the comp and that matt is backing him so strongly. I know that Bill and myself had enough after about two events. I would do it again in a heart beat but there is something about comp and adds another level of patience that takes alot. Congrats guys.

Congratulations!

Pics look Awesome!

Nice Job!

grason called me today and told me about his first place finish so just want to give him a congradulations along with everyone else

he ended up getting first, that awesome. class three is a tough class

Thanks guys. Was better with 4-5 teams competing from the local crowd...

Worst part about competing is that it takes most of the free weekends away from the baby and keeps me away from wheeling more with you guys... Missing the trail days.

Good year is talking about sponsoring us now, and rock krawler is trying to convince me to put a 3" stretch on... With all the side hills might be gbetter to add width instead.

As far as who gets credit for the teams, I have been a rock raider for a long time, but still think it was a better club when all of you were part of it... More well rounded and all that.... Seems to me that Matt should get all the credit. He stacks rocks like a fiend!
