looks like a good time

Also looks like you've made some changes to the 4runner, are those 36's? looking good

Only changes were some rattle can paint. I borrowed the 36's from my buddy for the day. I LIKE!!

I agree, the stripes are awsome! How did the tsl's handle on the pavement? Ive been strongly considering getting a set in that size. Oh, by the way! good job keeping your sheet metal off those rocks. pic no. 4

Yeah it got really close but came out clean. They were okay on the street. They are bias ply and had been sitting for a long time. Once they got warmed up they rounded out and then rode fine. I had some radials in the 38.5 size that were ovals. They never did smooth out when warmed up. I think it is a bit of a gamble when you get into the larger sizes.

How was Reiter? Haven't been there since the original closed.

There is still alot of work to be done. Currently there are only two trails. So we were only there for about an hour and a half. It barely makes it worth diving out there. While we were there we talked to one of only 11 DNR officers in the state of Washington who told us that Walker Valley has been abused so much recently from illegal logging and garbage dumping that they are planning to give it the same treatment as they did with Reiter. It will likely be closed, and over the next several years be opened only to clubs for voluntary clean up days. Then finally will likely have dedicated trails built for separate uses. It is always a small group of people who have to ruin things for the majority.

Yeah, they are both too far for me to go for what's there.
