I dont have any pics of my recovery, About 2-3 miles down a windy single lane mountain... :confused:

Before my truck died though, I was really surprised how well it did on some of the rocky hill parts, If I had a locker, this run would have been cake.
But Great time nonetheless

:clap:

[Seanz0rz]

im going with you next time....

[Scuba]

im going with you next time....



hah, Sounds good to me buddy :D

[troyboy162]

just let me know when! that place is awesome. the stone is like grip tape on a skateboard so you can climb things like spiderman lol.

+1 on lockers! hah there are some crazy lines to drive if your locked. but you can go just about everywhere unlocked if you take a slightly less fun line.

[Scooter25]

I bet I could spot you the whole way unlocked :thumbup:

[Good Times]

Hey Stephen you really need to be easier on your truck man ;)

Glad you guys had fun! :D

[Scuba]

Lance, I know man, It just wants to take the wrap of a lemon though...and it sucks.
Ill be back out soon im sure :D

[L33T35T Tacoma]

Figured out that truck yet stephen?

[Scuba]

no, but I see you havent got pics up yet :flipoff:

Im thinking its got something to do with my fuel pump wiring..But I think I could be wrong

ill take you up on that when we go back there. i want in on that mud hole you found haha

[Scuba]

I think my problem has something to do with the fuel pump wiring.
gheyness.
I WILL TURN THIS CAR AROUND AND WE WILL NOT GO TO DISNEY LAND !!
:argue:
lolz

oh, jmoney, is that the one tool you forgot to bring buddy ??
what ?

[troyboy162]

whens Jason posting pictures? he was filming half the day too haha. he should have some pics of him putting the coals to 'er up that hill by the powerlines.

[L33T35T Tacoma]

Yup thats the one. I guarantee I'm bringing that next time.

Still cant figure it out? maybe one day soon i'll make a trip to corona. you buy the beer and maybe my gas.

[Scuba]

Hah, Im guessing...im going to guess on this one...that it has something to do with my second hand wiring job for my fuel pump...only problem is, that wiring is inside the tank...
I jumped the FP tester and when I turned the key to "on" it blew the fuse, and normally it was only doing so on the cranking..
With all the sloshing of the hills and rocks...im sure thats where the problem is.
So ill be draining and droping it thursday for the UNteenth time.
Oh, And im in temecula...coronas full of mexicans...im not mexican... :flipoff:
Hah, You can come down and ill give you 5 gallons of regular..

/RANT


Oh and x2 troy

[troyboy162]

temp him with a home cooked meal. that always gets a soldier. and you probley should give me your older sisters phone number. you know...just to seal the deal lol :)

[Scuba]

hah, you can have it, maybe you can talk her into dumping that loser BF of hers...seriously...what does a 19y/o girl see in a 28y/o with 2 kids, a felon, and still works at jack in the box. :loser:
Oh, And you'll also have to talk her into moving here from texas.
/Rant X2

Everything else i have is video... and the camera i have records in some weird format that i cant get on youtube.

[Scuba]

We need to have someone that would be a dedicated picture taker.
I vote for krista !!

Oh, Little bit of an update on the rig though, Got her running !!!
It was the wires inside the fuel tank like I had somewhat suspected.

I still need to button things up though, I should be back on the road tomorrow morning :D

[L33T35T Tacoma]

Ok I lied. I just figured out how to convert videos off my camera.

Working on a couple videos... I'm not editing anything

[L33T35T Tacoma]

I can't figure out how to embed a youtube video... so here you go. just a test video for now

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VGVpfHR9kqU

[Scuba]

Please tell me you have a vid of me actually making it up that hill...?

[L33T35T Tacoma]

Umm... I'm putting all my videos together in one big 7 minute video. It's uploading right now. I haven't watched it. I'll post it when it's up.

[Scuba]

[troyboy162]

haha there some cool stuff in there. i love the part with scuba being stuburn and wanting to smash up the right hand side though those whoops instead of taking the high left line.

[Scuba]

Hah, Good times !!

Oh and I wasnt being stubborn, I just didnt realize/ couldnt see the line they were talking about :flipoff:
