I got pretty lucky, it wasn't a hard roll and the fender took the majority of the hit...I ruined my soft top, but fortunately, I didn't break my windshield. It was rather exciting...especially for my 8 year old nephew who was in the truck. I usually don't let people ride, but right at first the obstacle didn't seem that bad...remind me to ignore peer pressure next time someone says, "you almost had it, put it in second and hit it, you will get it". :rofl: :rofl:

We joined another local club at some private land in Westfield, MA. There was some pretty difficult stuff there along with some nice views.

Really Heath, you don't give your 4Runner nearly enough attention. It obviously just wanted it's belly rubbed!!!

Someone else mentioned this belly rubbing business, I was unaware that that was part of regularly scheduled maintenance. :headscratch: :hillbill:

It was quite the ride. It sucks that the soft top got ripped up, but otherwise, while I would never try to do it on purpose or wish it would happen...I don't necessarily regret it. :laugh: :screwy:

The truck smoked for a minute but ran fine once it was on it's wheels, so I have no complaints, haha. Hopefully I can manage to peice together an exo before I do it again though. While I don't mind body damage, I also don't want to destroy the body completely, it does need to pass inspection afterall, haha.
