I know most people went this past weekend for the MCR5 but I couldn't make it!   :tantrum:  :mad:  :rivers:  :down:  So I am going this weekend with a buddy and his rig and I will be running the box again so you get to see me make it or break it.  :yesnod:  So if anyone wants to join us the more the merrier.   :thumbs:

Heres a few pics of this weekend. Had lots of fun testing the new cage a couple times and held up perfectly. Truck ran great all weekend even on its side. Got denied in the box and my brother took a bad line in the soup bowl and flopped. I also flopped on the way to Buck Island and I'm still not sure how that happened.  :headscratch: Broke an outer on the way out doin jack. Seriously time to upgrade to some 30 spline Longs.

I know where that spot you flopped at is and ive always thought it could definitly happen if you hit it a little too sideways

Thanks, no more boring pics from now on.  :)  It held up perfectly. I still need to brace it in a few spots but I am happy with how it worked.

how did you flop right there??

I was trying to get through a tight spot with two big rocks on both sides and I believe the front slipped off to the left and I backed up and over it went.

Your right, if you don't take a really good line you can get sideways really easy.  We ultimately got through it with the help of a winch after we got wedged in there.
