Baystate Jeepers

Hi All,
I had a great time at the Killington JJ, my first got to do a trail ride with Carl on Saturday and saw Josh here and there but didnt get to wheel with him. I did pretty well minimal carnage, a little body damage to the front from trees standing in my way - man those are some narrow trails and ripped the breather tube in half on my front diff, also mashed the new tail pipe I had put in more or less shut and blew a bead on one of my front tires.

Here are a few higlights:
tech inspection on thursday


Eleanor was a hero and found a cell phone that bounced out of the rig in front of us before it disappeared into a mud hole.

IT got a little slick in spots mid day this is me on a small climb

poser shot from RI crew. they had ~1o rigs on hand.



here are some shots of hte jersey boys helping me with my blown tire. ended up needing to patch it and reseat the bead later that day in the lot.

they had a blast and made a few friends too. a good time was had by all.

Day 2 of the JJ was a lot drier. Day 1 was a 5-6 trail rating and this was a 4-5, still a good time but overall much easier, not sure
Id rate it a 4-5 myslef....

How different was the stop & go vs our runs?

day 1 was really bad, go 30' and shut down but that was due to a stock rubicon on a 5-6 trail where he really didnt belong. the second day all the rigs were geared to the trail or over built for it so we moved pretty well most of the time. still some stop and go but we covered a lot more ground...
