"It's a wet heat, it's not so bad" - said no-one ever.

Hey SASers. Who won my products in the raffle?

One of the products was a new release for me - the very first one of a thing lots of people have been asking me for. I guess it flew under the radar. On that one I need to get in touch with the winner so we I can guide them through installation.

Been driving the other Japanese tractor since returning from SAS Missing the cooler temps

I hadn't gone in years. Last time I went it was in Montana. Took me a minute to trust the ballistic calculator at 7300'. I was still hitting low. Between Chris, Dan, and myself, we probably got 30+
We probably should've started an hour earlier. The heat started forcing them into their holes and the mirage was getting really bad.

Wow, 7,300'! The farthest we were making hits was about 500 to 600 yards. Just kidding, I know what you meant.

I won the fj60 fusible link replacement kit. Idk if that's what you are referring to but it looks like a very nice setup.

Unfortunately I don't have a 60 series. I may have to buy one now.

Congrats on your new 60 Series purchase next week!!!

That one is fortunately straightforward and included instructions. The new product was the FJ62 fusible link replacement kit. Whoever has that, please get with me!

I am proud to be a part of Solid Axle Summit! I enjoy the people I get to work with, and I enjoy the people that get to join us. I like putting names and faces to mud-handles, though I do not remember them all, but I do try. We, directors and volunteers, work hard to make this what it is, and we always see ways to make next year smoother. Thanks for taking this adventurous ride with me!

Thank you to all the registered SASers for your willingness to fix up your older rigs and for driving 100s-1000s of miles to join us as we love seeing what others are doing with their rigs and for allowing us to see you out on the trails enjoying life in your classic Toyotas and making new memories along the way! It is a joy!

Thank you, Casey @POTATO LAUNCHER, Tim @BombCity, Jimmy @CenTXFJ60 for your leadership and for keeping this event alive!

Thank you, Chanette @80Lady, Bill @cornboy, Steve @smc2247, Rory @RocketCityCrzrs, Gabe @mesa man, Maggie @Beastiethe70 for being able to work alongside you to make this a memorable event.

Thank you, Maureen @John McVicker, Shay @AZOkiesWife, Sidney and anyone else that step in to help us at Base Camp, your help is so appreciated and helps make things just a little smoother.

THANK YOU, Sam @DirtySteve and his wife, Kaite for the early mornings to help wake us with freshly brewed coffee. Thank you, Stacey @NotYou60 for the YUMMY honey for our coffee!

Thank you, Trail Leaders and Tail Gunners for your support out on the trails and for making the newbies feel welcomed and supported. Thank you for going with the flow and for the great suggestions for next year, you have been heard!

Thank you sponsors for all your donations and offerings to get your products out there and your name know to the SAS community. I know a handful of us look you up and would support your small business first, so thank you for being there for us!

Thank you, Dave @Cruiser Cult for Trivia Night! Thank you @nakman for Whiskey Night!

Thank you, Ian @RevISK, Chris @cdphotog, Eric @Plains Cruiser, Doug @Dirtydawg for capturing our event in action and in stills! Your place in the event has made it even more special to be able to see your point of view of our amazing rigs and for capturing the social part of the event as well! Your skills are appreciated!

Thank you, KOA @ThatKOAGuy for your support to our event and for providing us a basecamp (with showers!!).

Thank you, Marchio's Food Truck for providing yummy breakfast and dinner, we hope to see you again next year!

Thank you to those who see the hard work that is done and for respecting and supporting the sponsors and especially the KOA @ThatKOAGuy as they are our home base for our event.

Thank you for all the feedback and encouragement to keep this moving forward to SAS10! It takes a little village to run the show.

Thank you, @cruiserdan for your presence at SAS9 and for schooling durning trivia night and on our new to us 80 about our lockers... there are pointers that the manual does not say, and thank you, Dan for being my tail gunner oh and for all the part numbers you have graciously given to me! It was a joy to meet you and Sarah @stickers, and we look forward to wheeling with you both again in New Mexico and at SAS10. I really want to build more confidence and learn more about wheeling BIG BETTY like Sarah is with Stickers!

SEE YOU ALL NEXT YEAR at SAS10!

Who wants to do a photo cruise next year where we specifically target being out in the late afternoon/early evening for the best light?

Happy to help you get the dramatic pics your cruiser deserves! That shot blows me away!!
