Damn Glenn!!!  SCHOOL IS OUT!!!!  :D I have to thank you for the lesson on the ridges, Best trip ever for me guys, cant wait for the next gathering!!

First let me say thank you all for the positive comments.
Second is I can finally say that a lesson I learned was put to good use.
Watch one, Learn one, Teach all.

I learned my driving style back in the ninety's when I had the golden opportunity to follow a group of minny buggy's from Seattel Washington while on a trip to St Anthony Idaho. 

Third Is I had the best run at LS that I have had in last decade.  You guy's all are great pepole to be around and I am so glad I could teach my driving style.  I do have to apologise to Engineer and his Friend for breaking a golden rule that should not brushed under the rug.  I did not circle back after I lost site of you two while we were running to make sure you were ok not just lost in Doug's roost. ;D  That is the number one rule for anyone leading a group.  That said on with the thread. 

Enemy thank you for not totally running off and hiding from my heavyweight and making me look to foolish.  I was ringing the shit out of the old Short Star to stay up.  I'll take them pic's to paste on my mirror's, I am so up for getting started on a minny busa build.  Master get your sheet together and getter done. Mr's Faber Mr Faber can't come out to play until the new car is done. Iff-en you want some it'll have to be while your bent over the main frame rail of the buggy and Master is turning and wrenching.  ;D ;D ;D ;D  We all need to see how the 091 is going to ring out.  I will for sure keep you all posted as to my dune schedule for the year.  Right now I am trying to get my car out of the trailer and cleaned up for the five Day trip back down to LS next week for Snake Hunt week end.  It's raining cat's and dogs here right now. 

DS! was good talking to you as well I am looking at changing my bottom transfer arm's to steel just for and extra margin of safety. My shocks are mounted high as yours were. 

Again Enemy I will keep in mind the graphics's we talked about. They would be pretty neat.

Once again a big thank's to all for a really cool day at LS. So looking foward to doing it again real soon.  ;D ;D ;D ;D

If I believe I cannot do something it makes me incapable of doing it. But when I believe that I can, then I acquire the ability to do it , even if I didn't have it at the beginning.

At least someone brought their camera!  Great pics Doug.

No problem Glen.  We should have let you know we were heading out.  I hope you didn't look for us long.  I had a technical issue with some sand under a contact, from running behind 3 buggies hauling ass.  ;D  Once that was remedied we were to beat to try and catch up, so we headed for the gate. 

My brother worked 3rd shift, and I picked him up as soon as he got home.  When I  got him back home he had to shower and head back to work.  ;D  He is always game for 36 hours with no sleep for a dune run.  ;D  It was a great time.

You weren't kidding about the size of choke cherry at St Anthony's.  That pic you posted is just crazy.

Need to come up with some really bad looking little pickle dude's.  OK we let the cat out of the bag Spec. Sorry for mix up.
