Im thinking that may be the place Alan popped a bead and then smashed up his spare valve stem--trail 8 i think.

I wasn't there on Saturday but think that is where I came down last time at Fain's Ford. That spot looks totally difference than the last time. We also took a harder line coming out of the creek this time which was fun. Got to get all my pics together and start uploading.

Those that were there last time probably won't believe what we did Saturday night. We took a GMC 6500 with a 48' trailer up trail one to get an H1 with a broken steering box and did a u-turn up close to the pay station. It was nuts and wouldn't have thought it could be done :eek:

We did end up getting to see a few trucks run Lower 2 on Sunday morning. Unfortunately there weren't any real buggies running but cool to see.

Bobby from IORC was going to run it but one of the other guys talk him out of it because we were not sure how we would get his H1 out of there with an air lift if he busted something :eek:

It's a good thing too because all the bolt on his steering box busted coming down #1 later in the evening :(

Tight quarters, an H1 had to back up on HI's brush guard to make room :eek:

Undercarriage looks good :eek:

Dei, the tape really helped. I thought I'd scraped the paint on the right rear fender but it just rubbed the tape off and left the adhesive. Knocked the tailight off but it just popped right back in.

I feel fortunate as the end of weekend damage assessment was a broken license plate frame. :cool:

Thanks to everyone who went for all your help and making it an awesome trip! Can't wait to do it again...
