What's the deal with your job, you gonna have one this summer?

[TrailDawg362]

Ummmm......no . After telling me before Christmas break that I was definitely staying on, they pulled me out of a team meeting this Tuesday to inform me that they "made a mistake". So next Friday will be my last day. I got f*cked by the union, that group I pay to protect my job. They forced the company to keep someone else instead of me. I'm very close to the cutoff date, so there's a small chance I'll get recalled. Until then, I'm gonna enjoy the time off .

[Super]

Well, good and bad I guess. That means we can do Fri. crawls again (if I don't have to work), I miss those.

[TrailDawg362]

Yup . I'll be getting UC and a double tax refund this year, so let the trail truckin' adventures begin!

[TrailDawg362]

Hey Super, on your RPM light bar how did you set yours up? Did you drill out the buckets for 5mm led's or find some 3mm's to use? I don't think I have enough 3mm white lights on hand, but got lots of 5's. Also, how did you wire it?

[Super]

Yeah, I drilled them out for the 5mm ones. I'll post some pix in a bit.

[Super]

I hope this helps.

[TrailDawg362]

Thanks buuuuuuuud! So you did them in parallel? Any resistors?

[Super]

Not on those because I am running them off of a 3 aa bat pack (3.6 volts)

[TrailDawg362]

I've been talking to my old rc'in buddy Jody (from the Blackfoot/Stampede days ). He's interested in getting into the 4x4 scene, crawling and trail running. Maybe we'll have another truck in the pack this summer!

[Super]

Kool!

[TrailDawg362]

So, I did a little snow crawling the other day. Too bad it was on highway 41! What a long drive to work .

[Super]

Took me just a shade under an hour to get to work yesterday. Shoulda stayed home.

[Super]

Oh yeah, I got my speed gems yesterday. Think I might save them for a rainy day, or when my other motor fries.

[TrailDawg362]

So what was your impression of them? Happy or disappointed?

[Super]

They look really nice. As long as they work that good we'll be golden.
