Hey Jason, your truck looked absolutely sick man! The new paint really looks great! I would have loved to wheel with you guys. Maybe some day when I get 66" tires I'll be able to

This year Outer Limits seemed to be a little harder but always fun. But like I said I hit every stupid line which I could have easily bypassed.
Yeah I didn't know what to expect. Everyone kept telling me the worst and that I am a moron for taking a clean truck into those trails. My truck isn't perfect and the paint is old, but I have yet to dent it since I've owned it (two years) and I'm glad I was able to keep it that way

There are some really nasty lines that apart from carnage, I just could never even make unless I had twice the tire size. There was even a guy out there with 49" tires with rear steer. That thing was a MONSTER!!! It was bad ass! I followed a bypass waterfall on the last hard part that Marlin built up for those who didn't want to destroy their rigs. Even that bypass was pretty hard, but my truck just crawled right up it.
Of course having triple cases is really cheating, and oh yeah, I used 510:1 many times out there

I have to say my favorite runs are Wrecking Ball and Sledge Hammer. We ususally run Jack Hammer at night, thats allot of fun being up on that razor back at 2:00 a.m.
I heard that Sledge was really really tore up this time! I thought Jack was harder than Sledge, but its been soooooooo long since I have even seen Sledge I hardly remember anything. I remember wheeling at the Hammers back in the 90s when Jack Hammer just opened up, I thought, and they were all really hard back then, but everyone was running 35s too. I saw so many 40+ tires its really amazing. Seriously, it won't be long until 39s are a minimum requirement for all trails

I give you credit Big Mike you are a technical driver not a basher and the smooth driver seems to go where the truck is pointed. Unfortunately for me I consider myself a technical driver until there is a crowd watching and the stupid Locktup comes out to put on a show. Some day I will have to grow up.
Thanks man, and guess what, if I had a rig as capable as yours, I would be trying to drive up the canyon walls

I have to say, after watching Hyena and BBW wheel up Jack Hammer, it's no wonder those guys break stuff every weekend!! HA!
![hahaha :hahaha:](https://board.marlincrawler.com/Smileys/marlin/hahaha.gif)
I don't even think they take time to plan out and consider a line, they just Hammer Down! and Get er DONE! After they would get up a rock, they would keep moving and everyone would be like "STAY ON IT!! HAMMER DOWN! DON'T LET UP!!" and then they would bash around and fall into another hole or diff grabber
![Smack! :smack:](https://board.marlincrawler.com/Smileys/marlin/smack.gif)
hahahaha but they sure do put on a show

lilbuddy has single cases with 37s and from what I saw he tries his best to "Go Easy".
I wanna get out more with you and those guys, Hyena, BBW... Definitely keep me in the loop after school gets out for some runs up Rubicon or what not. I would love to wheel with you guys again.
