The official flop thread

[Dirty White Boy]

Well, I guess I'll throw mine in here. Didn't happen while wheelin, but a flop nonetheless.
Coming home one night with the wife, lost control and rolled it 7-9 times, so I'm told. I lost count for some reason. 

We definately had a little gaurdian angel watchin over us that night. My wife took most of the injuries and after almost a year and a half, she back to 90%. The 4Runner was totaled, obviously. But, it never leaked any fluids while sitting afterwards. And short of reconnecting the battery, it started right up.

7-9 times!!!!!

How fast were you going?

[MetalMangler]

I have lots of good flops, but no good pics!

[StretchASU]

My first flop in the new rig.

[coondogger]

My junk after 1.5 rolls

[Dirty White Boy]

7-9 times!!!!!

How fast were you going?

~60. The rear came around and 4Runners don't like sliding sideways at that speed.

Wasn't me but one of the regulars (so I was told) at Azusa Canyon, I think he had a few too many he was trying to make a new hill climb out of a vertical ledge.


Note: I've been informed that the owner and driver of this truck doesn't drink, and took offense to the implication that he did, my apologies to the owner.

hey that's meeeee. in the blue. back when I was growing long hair. pretty weird seeing that pic. I do have video of it going over

and to let you know. he was going up the left side of the dirt gave out and slide the truck to the side. nothing he could of done

i thought i would add to the section. enjoy 










so apparently on the obstacle before it messed my steering up. there for turning left was sort of an issue, as i got to the top of the waterfall i had to make a hard left to miss the 3ft deep hole. and as you can see it didnt miss it.

I love hill climbs with a passion, but I cant stand coming back down.  I used to climb anything I find in my jeep, and motorcycle, but I would allways look for some wussy way to get back down...

If you've got the right gearing coming back down is the best part

I am sitting at 300:1,  not sure if thats enough gearing but I still hate going down....  I dont know whats wrong with me but thats the way I am.

To each his own! I love hill climbs but then again that is what I am used to around my area...there are a good amount of rocks but there are endless hillclimbs so I got used to em from a young age hehe

He was trying to go up and it was too loose,he was near the top and coming back down and got a little sideways towards the bottom and flopped it.Here's a before and after of his rig.

What's wheeling if your not rolling. I don't do it just to do it, but if it happens. No biggy. It's just a truck. i can always get another!
