Made a quick run to the forest with fj40z and rockdragster yesterday

click on the pic for video


Fletcher working the Stock height 80 in the rocks of Daniel
we dont need no stinkin' lift and tires......................

most the vids were taken with the IPAD, now youll just have to wait for steve to figure that one out
group harassement is perfectly acceptable

I may have to copy that line, as my cats don't like the usual...

Steve loving the 35's and sliders

seeing just how far he can stay away from "the tree"

Brodi doing his thing.....actually the chinrest is a new one to me but he worked it all day and I have the dusty drool marks to prove it

must have been keeping an eye on the rear view since my visibility was um..... limited

Pit stop #2 to remedy the lack of traction provided by 0 psi

and finally a more appropriate stance for the RockDragster

btw if anyone is in mechanical need in the URE area there is a small independant shop south of the outpost less than 10 miles towards TROY. Steves Auto repair. Hooked us up with a 3rd spare of the right size and mounted it up for a great price. Cant do balancing there but told us where to go next if we wanted. Thumbs up!!!

We had a blast and only did Daniel and Rocky Mountain Loop but stopped to play around and do some obstacles several times.

I completely blame Ramon for whatever is clunking in the front end of the 80 now
He made it look so easy and these guys werent taking no for an answer so I had to give Kodak Rock a try after we made about every other line available. Plus there is no bragging rights when a stocker follows you everywhere you go. Peer Pressure...... aint it a biotch

Hope you guys had a good trip today and the crowds were thin for you. Post up some action.

Some mighty fine driving up daniel in the stock 80

Yeah it was an awesome time, I love URE on a weekday. Pretty much had the whole place to ourselves. It was very cool watching Fletcher on Kodak in a stock truck taking hard lines. Then J trys something that I thought was impossible then proves me wrong, the line he took on Kodak is by far the craziest, sickest thing I have seen done in an 80 yet. Here are a few pics I took, got loads of video that I have my IT department(wife) fixing for my technology challenged behind as we speak.

J how did you take that far right line up the ledge, none of us could do it last month. Did it somehow become less rutted??

Are you talking about the sluice right before kodak or the second ledge on daniel?
For the ledge on RML in the video its more about picking a good line than tire and foot size
Its no less rutted, actually the hole at the top had been dug out a little more from some big meats.
Ramon, Allen, and I made it last month and um someone in a big gray 80 claimed to ;p

The big grey 80 made it up that line also

Key is to miss the first part of the rock face in the right bank and turn right just behind the cleavage in the rock hug it and stay right as possible. That way youll miss the hole and the back side and not get high centered. Got to turn a lil back left at the top to keep from ending up on the bank.

Oh and front locker doesnt hurt either though maybe doable without.
