Took Rootbeer and Raul out for a shake down run. Started at Sugarloaf/Sycamore.

Flex testing. Raul needs the front axle widened, tires rub on the shocks, the left front bump stop slightly lowered, tie rod contact with the pitman arm. Rootbeer has tire to body contact issues that need to be resolved, none of the bump stops properly contact the axles.

Working our way over to Lower Sycamore, then playing on some of the hills.

Good times, rigs worked well, only a couple of minor issues uncovered.:cool:

OH WHAT A FEELIN!

And that play hill was sure entertaining. Slot got narrower at the top, and then as you crest, your looking straight into the late afternoon sun. It's a bloody minefield up there, with lots of bad options and way off cambers.I wouldn't even think about it on the weekends with lots of traffic.

Both rigs performed better than expected. Still have a few adjustments to be done, but overall a huge success as far as accomplishing the original goals. John
