Awesome! Enjoy you lucky reddog haha

I'm sure they do, but it's just nothing I have ever seen in my experiences.

I've never seen a split o-ring on the pickup. You might want to verify the connector and wiring at the sender (behind the intake manifold) didn't get damage during the process). Those senders go bad alot but they usually either peg full high or don't register at all. The only way I know of to actually check the oil pressure is to use a GM specific tool/ adapter that screw in place of the oil filter so you can check the pressure with a gauge. If it was a stuck bypass/ relief valve, you would replace the oil pump. The valve rides in an aluminum bore or small cylinder inside the oil pump and they stick sometimes. But for it to build pressure then dump off, that doesn't sound like a possibility. Let it idle for a few minutes with "no oil pressure". See if the lifters begin to make noise. This may be a sender or wiring issue. Make sure all your grounds are good and that no wires got pinched back there.

You guys will have some nice sand. This was a couple buddies of mine on Sunday at D...

Is the valvetrain making any noise? Sometimes the bypass/relief valve sticks in the oil pump on those motors.

Sounds like the adjustment of the selector switch is just slightly off. As for the oil press issue, did it do this before or is this a new problem? How long does it stay at 20-40 before dropping to 0?

oh sorry, Jon. I'll move it back. I just figured it was RV related.

Uh ohhh, more dune paparazzi! Very cool, Savannah.

Holy crap. That's badass! lol It doesn't even look real.

Looks like he put it in the tags field. $40,500

Some of the best trips to Dumont involve my wife. This trip sounds like it sucks. Have fun!

Sounds like Gordon is doing much better. He finished 3rd in stage 6 but still has a ways to be in order to catch up overall. On the bikes, Despres is in 2nd place overall with Pain leading. Here's some pics from stage 6

Hahahaa maybe I'm KTM biased and just don't know it. That guy can ride though! He's so smooth.

Sorry Vic. I only have one or two trips left, myself, and Dumont isn't on my list of priorities right now so my offer is now no good. I know, that's a first right? But we are headed to the Bahamas soon and are wrapping up our remodel at home so the sand will have to be pounded twice a hard next season to make up for lost time this season. If you get desperate I'll offer you 50 plus shipping because I'm sure there will be a day trip or two that I am willing to squeeze in for a last minute sand fix before the heat sets in. Let me know bud.

No joke! I can't believe the stuff that those "big rigs" drive through! Yeah Robby can be a bit arrogant at times, but sometimes you can't put up with any sh*t and that's the attitude that intimidates your competitors. He's persistent and determined and that's what I like about him. Here's another update video that Planet Robby posted up. http://youtu.be/hlvJWjPYY1w

Anyone following it? It's on NBC Sports channel this year. It always amazes me the terrain that those guys cover. Those dunes look SO bitchen. Anyways, sounds like Robby Gordon had some bad luck today with a slow rollover. I like his attitude and like to see him do good. I hope he can recover from this little hiccup. As for the bikes, I'm rooting for Cyril Despres. He is one helluva rally rider and trains like crazy. I admire his riding style and techniques. As for those dunes...oh my god! Check these suckers out...

It's so effin retarded. Why stop there? Shouldn't we have to show proof of ownership on everything else of value then too? I mean why everyone being questioned in the first place? How about them shoes or goggles? How do know those aren't stolen!!???

It is but they don't even show up in full force until Friday.

Anna & I rode our old 4x4 Grizzly & Raptor on paddles down my street during the last (and biggest) snow storm that actually hit Vegas/ Henderson back in 2008. That was a blast!

That pigtail/ connector is glued into the switch from the factory. Not sure why but it makes it nearly impossible to unplug without destroying the wiring. I would pay close attention to the wiring and terminals in the connector. I'm sure there is probably a bad connection there because of this. We remove the bolts that attach it to the trans and slide the switch off the selector shaft as the bolts loosen to prevent dealing with this situation. Then just make sure you adjust it properly so it corresponds correctly with the shifter position. Good luck!

Damn Skyz sorry to hear that! Heal up quickly.

here's some pics from our weekend. Sorry they aren't in any order. Dune time! I think they're all waiting for me to lead. And we're off! A great view of the south pole with a big line of duners in our group! Break time Anna & Marcia Jason & Marcia Following Randog Lou B eating some of my sand. It's delicious. Carving it up! Go Pro dune pics Break time. The crew at the north pole Cody going big! The other Cody going "big" haha. passer-by while we were chillen taking a break braaap gorgeous day out on Saturday Me and Anna having a great weekend STUCK! WOOHOO! And this is the pic I took after doing that ^ Parked for the night. Time for cocktails! Fire time! Party time! Do you see an elephant? We did! Randog playing ball with his boy, Ryder. Priceless. Ryder ready to ride! Sunday night after our last run, we sat up on the top of a dune and enjoyed those awesome skies. With the storm that barely missed Dumont, it made for some cool views. Others had the same idea. Sunset from camp Glowing rain clouds
