Cadillac looks killer. Good one to plan for. What about mount battie? It would be more central to all of you. Its an hour for me. Bath also works fairly close. Once I get my real car fixed so it runs right . ide be up for Cadillac mountain.

I've run Mt Battie several times, good fun. I am beginning to wonder what the National Park Service would think of us at Cadillac, they get upset if you walk off the path up there, lots of warning signs when I was there in July about "habitat protection" and "alpine growth areas" maybe Nigelsworld could check into it before we all drive so far.

That works for me. I live in Waldoboro so anything from bath to Camden is great. 1 vote for birch point

We are still going out on the 21, right? I hope so, my wife got the day off so I could go and she only gets a day off in a blue moon.

Im waiting to hear back from midcoast. If were going to do birch point sat. me and the boy would be in. Might go out sunday two if that's the only day midcoast has. Think the wife has to work Saturday so she would be coming on sunday two. She was bummed we didn't make the last trip. I like afternoon myself. don't know about you guys. like 1 or so. Has there been anything set other then the date? Weekends coming. What are we doing?

Is it because of the smaller tires? I thought about changing over to my wraith tires if its going to be tuff obstacles. They are a little bigger then the stock scorpion tires I have on it. Between my ford the boys Ridgecrest and the wife's scorpion I expect there will be breakage.

Birch Point is ROCKS with Rocks and rocks, I suspect the hardbody TF2 would not like it. I'm bringing my crawler, not my scaler, plus I just orderd something new to try, should be in before the weekend

Me too. I just got done putting a new set of pinion bushings in my wraith tonight. The teeth were not looking happy. Not to mention the end of the pinion shaft were the e clip goes was sheared off and the e clip had apparently gotten eaten by the ring and pinion. I reshimmed it, buttoned it back up and am hoping for the best but I'm going to bring an extra set of ar60s in my backpack just in case.

If your new parts don't come in time I'll bring you a stock idler. Maybe someone else will have shafts for you.
