[iNfErNaL]

Figured I'd start another picture thread for this specific run because Ron's group will be hitting other trails so I don't wanna clutter his thread up...Big thanx to Ron for inviting me to be a part of this Monday after the Expo run  .It was a blast,when Ron first mentioned it I believe it was about 3 rigs and we wound up with 16 yesterday.Great group,we had alot of awesome people from the Off-Road industry including Marlin himself,Jon from All-Pro,Wyatt from Demello Off-Road,Woody from IH8MUD,Brian from UDS,Rocky from MC,Jay and Eric from YotaMasters,KOH racer Larry Gipson and a couple of Brawlers just to name a few.We ran SledgeHammer,it was a beautiful day and everyone got through withought any major issues.

It was an awesome run, we ran Jack today and that last section on Sledge instead of exiting where we did yesterday. Maybe do this run again next year?

I agree Ron.We need to definately make it an anual thing kinda like Hump & Bump after SEMA.Maybe keep it limited to a certain number of rigs or split them up into 2 groups.It'd be a cool industry run...Larry's rig was having some cooling issues on the way to the trail:

Yeah, was good being the only group out there and no breakage.

If I had enough energy that day I would have unstacked it, It was like an elevator. Rocky was driving the Ftoy.

Will do Bro  ...Yeah man everything is cool,I guess I strained a muscle and it hurt really bad,made my ass cry on the trail ,LOL.I went to see the doc and they did an ultrasound (like a pregger chick  ) and it was the cartilage on my floating ribs ( I had no idea we had floating ribs  )

I had alotof fun out there and met some neat people.  I'm happy I was able to finally wheel with Pepe and Joey.  I just cracked up when Pepe's kids were asleep while he was bouncing around on the last big waterfall.  Then I really cracked up when his son asked me who that was who was riding with Marlin.  Dude!  Pepe!  You need to get control of him quick or your gonna be a grand papa before your 40.

it was really nice meeting everyone for the first time, and for the people i havent talked to in awhile it was a great time,  first of all what a treat to wheel with the man Marlin himself, always very kind and great to talk too
thanks again Marlin for all the wisdom 
John Bundrant spotted me more than once and was always dead on making it look easy,  John spotted me
on a by pass my foot was shaking on the clutch pedal, i end up doing a wheel stand about 4 feet in the air
and pull off a great move, once again listening to every word John spoke, and well it was awsome to say at least to have the world champion spotting for me..yahoo 
Whyatt and Jason from Demello are some really kool cats too hang with, watching the big taco come thru the plaque with no scratches was great, then Sual followed in the straight axled fj with no scratches on Sledge Hammer these guys got lucky to escape carnage

just another really good day of wheelin with good bunch of guys that work hard and play hard !!
