Thanks guys. She is from Susanville, CA. The wedding will be on a big horse ranch in Quincy, CA. Then off to the Florida Keys"thumbsup"
I lived in Chico and drove to the mountains everyday for a summer cruising timber out there. Had many vacations since then in the NorCal.

No you are going to work on your foam set-up. But this cube and the one I'm fixen to start will be gritty. The sand I got is more course than the sand I had on the 1st ones and I'm doing a different rub on them.;-)
They're not slick, you seen my rig and some of the others have traction :lol:

I think my new foam/tire setup is golden. Tons better than it was. "thumbsup"
I know those rocks weren't slick, but they were slicker than they appeared. But now I know, and knowledge is power. 8)

Should the next one I make, make it slick. I can make it real slick. I'll have to think of a good shape to be slick. Maybe some kind of wheel burning bump or something like that. :twisted:

Make it a big bowl...that would be very interesting to try to get out of and pass cleanly through a gate...
Or make it a big, windy downramp. Something that would make you go "oh sh*t, oh sh*t, oh sh*t" all the way down. :lol:
btw: I'm going to be sitting this one out. I just realized the 23rd is Memorial Day...I can't pass up working that weekend.
