Default Crawlin the Flatirons, 5 November

Alrighty, for those that have missed out here is another chance to go have a blast crawlin over some great natural terrain.

Next Friday, November 5th, Big Tex, Wannabe, and myself will be at the FlatIrons around Noon, and going til whenever!!! Wannabe and myself are meeting in Lakewood for some all you can eat buffet action, and then heading out for some crawlin. If you need directions post up or pm me!

Be there or be a clod driver who is afraid of some real wheelin *cough cough Ace, Griz cough cough*

Ohhhhh, big smack down talk from the guy who drove ALMOST all the obstacles we did.

I doubt I can take half a day off Friday but I'll see what happens. :( I would like to go for sure.

Yeah yeah......Just wait.

The cantilevers are GONE!!! Just need to tweak those Grizzly Off Road links, for better pinion angle, cut the frame some more, and rebuild the shocks, and I should be good. May need some nice limiting straps. But she is about 1-2 inches lower to the ground now! Lost a little flex, but the frame cut will fix that.

So bring it on the Clod Driver!!! You got Wannabe's new clod killer, and the Almost stock TXT, which was Almost a clod Killer, and now is one :P I should hopefully have all the bugs worked out by then

Glad to see your scrambling to keep up with the clods. Keep up the effort

Dunno if I can make Friday... Might be able to leave work early and head up. Gotta see what my schedule looks like.

Hope you clod boys are ready to get beat by a shafty!!!

Just got in from testing the new suspension on the truck, she is good to go. Hope to have the rear shocks rebuilt by Friday, but other than that she is pimp!! Super low, awesome flex, and the flex is very controled. I was able to flex up and over some big rocks on a nice off camber section without rolling.

All I can say is bring it awn!!! Other than needing new shoes on the truck she is ready to slay some clods

Oh yeah, the cheap seats and nose bleed are full :P Don't worry I will try to keep the mob under control!!!


Don't worry too much, there is only so much function left to the brain after the EIT, so I could just be talkin smack, or I could be ready to follow the super duke up every thing, and maybe show the clods a new line or two

Yeah yeah, laugh it up Professor Clod, cause the student is about ready to teach the master

Besides, how long have you been tryin to convert me to the easy way out, and I still stand by my drive shafts?!? Just cause you took the easy way out doesn't mean I am ready to give up on that nice fact that all 4 of my tires will turn when i want the too :P
