More 500 race
« on: May 26, 2009, 11:53:27 AM »
More 500 This weekend....
1408 10 miles before the front driver wheel ejected and they did a cartwheel and landed on the lid. Our boys were good to go and the truck really wasn't to bad.





Ive got a fender for my office!



This was nothing compared to Kyle Caso that was pitting with us... lost a link bolt while going 85mph  rolled 8 times or so.... Truck is almost a total loss,
everyone walked away a little beat up but alive..




the night before race... we went out to "the wall" with my buddy michael launching his campershell...






next morning before the race....  Mikey and I cruised out to Giant Rock!



Dusty Camera Lense




Towed out the "battle wagon" to the remote pit at mile marker 35.....



Another solid adventure.

Your pics are never boring. Gives us "web-wheelers" a chance to experience the great outdoors. Can't wait to get back out there again. Thanks again!

Those first pics look like an expensive roll over.  Just curious, do you even have or ever had an Xterra?

he rolled 10 miles away from the first 2 pictures....that's what those trucks are built for.

Nope, I have a Range Rover

my buddy Davey has a 2wd xterra with Titan Control Arms/ coilovers.He's who got me into this mess( offroad) he doesnt really go on trail runs anymore or post on here too much. Made a few buddies along the way Oz, Bobby, Toolbox, Mitch to name a few....



I went on the death valley trip in march 2006 and then the xterra triathlon in May 2006 which i co-dawg.
Then I ran the Mojave road as a "guest" of davey...he didnt even end up running the trail due to finances.
We went anyways had great time.
