Poor Mitch. He built a beautiful 80 for the trip and it blew the diff at the beginning of Kokopelli on Rose Garden Hill. We will pick him up tomorrow on the way to the Landcruiser Heritage Museum and he will be in Moab a few more days after. Luckily Bart saved the day once again by sourcing a new third Member online that was Fedexed to Moab Motorsports overnight. They can complete the repair by end of Saturday. Damn good thing Bart had a back up plan.

Steve's Taco is parked suspiciously close to that frame straightening rack....like it's awaiting Mid-Evil treatment.
