Arrow Video from XRRA in Colorado Springs

I pieced together a small video from this past weekend. Not nearly as good as the Moab video. I missed alot of rigs and the jump contest.

Drummer did a good job whoever it is.

That video makes my belly scraping 2.2 look like a scaler.

Well I took apart the first motor And the thrust bearing was the only good one in the whole motor. I talked with a Subaru expert and he said when they loose oil pressure they fail realy quick. So the first motor was an oiling issue. Which should be solved with the accusump. As for the second motor since it was used and came out of a wrecked car I think it was bad fro the get go. Since it was knocking the day after we installed it. The yard I got it from is going to warranty it and I am going to take that used motor and re-ring it and bearing it so I know that every thing is good. So we will see what happens. I am just glad the serise is best 4 out of 5 events.

Rubbing is racing? I guess I better check my rear view mirror for that one.

I'm gonna build some new wheels, modeled after a roman chariot. You guys better bring extra tires.

I agree! The runs I saw didn't look very slow to me either. Rig sound good though, I like my crawlers loud!

Thanks guys, I tried to go as fast as I could and still not "punish" the rig too bad. Love the pics. V8 dual exhaust and good mufflers.....can't go wrong with that. I do admit that turbo whistle is just plain bad ***. Maybe I should put one on my rig.....hmmmm.....
