[bluecruiser]

Awesome day. Much better than a day at work!! Nice to meet you guys. I now will start on my building of a golf ball gun. That thing was amazing!!

I am ready for the next run!!

So after wheelin, everyone heads over to his house except for Carl and his mom, and we see what it could do.

I'm surprised you don't have an indentation in your forehead. How many PSI?

 

[Blues Dawg]

100 psi mostly - I refused to be nearby when launching at the Target Taco. That gun/launcher is crazy - I thoiught we were toast when Shannon stuffed 3 balls in the barrel and shot them straight up for the "hang time test"...

Oh, and believe it or not, Kevin - nobody had to pull me out. Strap only came out once...

heres the link to water crossing video YouTube - Table Mesa river crossings, 3-10-10

Strap only came out once...

Lemme guess- green 80 thought it was invincible again?

 

[Blues Dawg]

Sort of, while the strap was attached to the green 80, it was the one doing the pulling...as opposed to being pulled.

Tony then mentions he has a Tacoma at his house thats been totalled but still has a good door and hood.

I need some things of that tacoma...whose is it?

 

[msahr]

Looks like a lot of fun. Those water crossings... NICE!

Mountaincruiser. He drove the 85 EFI mini because he is in the middle of doing a cut and turn on his newly lifted 60 series' front axle. Good guy and man does he have some cool toys!

I'll post up some pics tonight when I get home. We went from I-17 Table Mesa exit east to Seven Springs. It was a perfect day and good time. Even the MUD got mostly washed off. Ill have to post up a dirty picture of my LC just to make BrotherRob smile

Dont worry though - She'll be shiny by the weekend!

its not about having way too much time on my hands, its about how I manage my time.

 

[mountain cruiser]

Thanks again for the great day of wheeling, it was great meeting everyone and I think we all feel the "need" for a a golf ball launcher now after seeing how fun that thing is.

I need some things of that tacoma...whose is it?

My buddies, just PM me with what you need and I can get you some prices if we have what you're looking for.

A few pics I shot...

It was a beautiful day and the high points would have to be the water crossings (no-one was gonna get stuck - it was too cold!), the hot lunch (thanks Eric!) and the entertainment (thanks Shannon)...

 

[Blues Dawg]

a few more...

The weather and scenery were great - this trail is a March must do...funny I ran it 3-10 in both '08 and '10.

Who was your spotter? They need to be fired for letting us down!
