  1. That dog probably escaped from the Pahrump pound and thought he was finally free. Then Steve showed up and brought him all the way back. Jk, you did the right thing. Hopefully the owner or someone else picked him up by now from the pound and he's chillen in a nice comfy house.
  2. I15 is easiest and allows for a stop if you need one in Baker. You should have cel service most of the way as well. 160>Tecopa (Old Spanish Trail Hwy) is the fastest route which is the way I go most of the time.
  3. Check this thing out. My uncle sent this to me in an email.... Can you believe this guy? I'll bet he's turned many an eye while passing other boaters. The Love Love was built to look as if it is sinking French artist Julien Berthier has designed a fully functional boat to look as if it is sinking. The 6.5m (21ft) yacht was cut in half with a new keel and motor added so it remains in the sinking position while being fully functional. He describes it as "the permanent and mobile image of a wrecked ship that has become a functional and safe leisure object." Berthier has taken the boat (or should I say half-a-boat) across the English Channel to London and has toured it around Europe , getting plenty of offers of assistance from unwitting good Samaritans, who would presumably be either very annoyed or rather bemused by the contraption. The designer and artist designed and built the floating installation in 2007. He named his creation Love Love.
  4. Going out Wed evening and coming home Sunday sometime.
  5. I've had a few people ask me what the shirts are going to be like this year. They will be short-sleeve, black t-shirts with white print. Similar to the ones Racin Dirty did for us last year. The back will say 3rd Annual 70cc Regatta presented by DDR somehow with the pic incorporated of TCS T & 702ltr450 from this year's banner. The event sponsors will also have their logo on the back. I think the front will have the same design minus the logos. Probably left chest position. So don't wait if you want one. The deadline is THIS THURSDAY, the 20th to pre-order them. Here is the link... http://shop.dumontduneriders.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=6 Eye Candy Designs is doing them so they should be pretty sweet. http://www.eyekandydesigns.com/
  6. Just about any crf50 pitbike (over) pipe will fit with very minor modifying done to it. That's what mine was made for.
  7. sensitive? me? And yes, the right side only gets about a hour or two of sun in the morning and is in the shade for the rest of the day. So I stand corrected that only the left side is getting oxidized by the afternoon sun. What other explanation do you have for only one side oxidizing? Oh it must be that greenhouse effect only on the OUTSIDE of camp. lol I'm only a little sore today. Not too bad. But that's not why I only did one side. The right side really doesn't need it and besides there are only 2 days in a weekend and that's how long it took me to do the whole left side. I didn't even get any buggy maintenance done because of this job I took on. Glad you had a good weekend. I'll make up for it regatta weekend when I have 4 1/2 days out there and the car is ready.
  8. I was going to but The Alaskan is having his going away party this Sat night. Maybe a day trip. This isn't the Glamis Happenings section.
  9. Good job, Brian. It's great were bringing all of these things back from the dead. Haha
  10. It's in the aisle where the cleaners are, I picked up 4 cans of it yesterday and I'm bringing 3 of them back today. That stuff didn't work so great on mine. I ended up using some stuff kens colors gave me. It's a liquid polish.
  11. Nice! Is the frame painted or powder? Looks good.
  12. Well it's too bad were missing this weekend. It's one of our favorite "festive" holidays.
  13. What kind of half a$$ rookie do you think I am? No freakin sh*t I have to wash it first. And yes, I wash my roof all the time. I know how a dirty roof causes black streaks. Did you forget in your old age that I have been doing this toyhauler thing for a long time? I have just never had to wax or polish it until now. Other than a little bit of oxidation lately, my hauler is always clean. As for having a job for me when you get back, no thanks. I work hard enough at my day job I don't need any more work on the side. You can hire you super badass detailers you speak of.
  14. Cool. Thanks guys. skinner, the spray bottle and wiping it down sounds like my style.
  15. ** schedule update** I updated the schedule and added the best of 3 timed lap races to the events. I thought we wouldn't have time for it, but I tweeked the schedule to make it work.

  16. Is there any recommended polish or product that you guys have used for smooth fiberglass sided toyhaulers? I'm thinking of tackling mine this weekend. It's overdue and is tarting to show some oxidation.
  17. Got it Julie. Thanks! The more people we can pre-register and pre-order shirts, the smoother and faster everything will go Sat AM so we can get to 70's time!
  18. My eyes will be peeled. Sorry to hear! What low lives!
  19. I have another SANDboni (plastic truck bedliner) were going to rig up this year. I think that worked alot better than the grate. Helped build the berms up a little more.
  20. You would have to check with him. I think he carries them, but not sure.
  21. Heck yeah. All of that will help! Shoot me a pm and let me know exactly where you are getting stuck with checkout. Not sure what the cookies issue is.
