I doubt that slab is damaged. It's way thick and full of rebar.

What's that? Hey Dan. How about Feb 5th? It won't be that weekend. Hopefully the 5th works for most everyone. I'm just waiting to hear from a few more before we make it official. No prob, Chris. It's almost impossible to make it work for EVERYONE, but I can sure try! I don't want anybody that's really looking forward to it to miss it. I'll keep you guys updated as I find out more info from everyone.

Here is a pic submitted to DDR back in 05. I don't remember who sent it in. This was after the water had gone down the next day. This was back when there was that tiny slab where you had to make sure you didn't drive off the edge!

Yep Prez 05. I am sure the water was flowing more than in was in the pics like last night. The BLM worker told Jodi it was the worst he's seen it in 20 years. So not sure if it is worse than 05 or not. I think I have pics of them. I'll see if I can dig em up.

As of this morning there is no sign of the BLM. All of their equipment is gone. Maybe they gave up until later today. I would imagine they're probably waiting until the water level drops. Sandchick & Malibu Mike are heading to Little Dumont now. They camped out before the crossing last night.

Pics from the homepage (taken this morning by sandchick and Malibu Mike). They said they still couldn't cross this morning.

Well Jan 29th isn't looking very good anymore for the regatta. I need to get the insurance and permit application submitted soon and I don't have a for sure answer if my Saturday can be covered yet at work that day. I won't know until after the 1st and that is too long. If we push it up to the 22nd, that doesn't work for a couple key people/ event staff people. So I am proposing we move it to Feb 5th. Let's hear some input.

See...I knew it wasn't the old website server!

David, not cool. Is that necessary??? Play by the rules. For the record, Mr Sandman and ynot are right. The BLM doesn't care what you consider good and bad to dump. Bottom line...you are not permitted to dump. We can sit here all day arguing about what is ok and not ok for the environment. None of that matters because you are to take all your sh*t with you when you leave.

I'm filling out the permit app as we speak. I sure hope I can get that Saturday off work! LOL (I'm scheduled to work that day)

Funny chit. Good job. Freakin classic. Never gets old.

Yeah we're gonna need an emcee this year. I guess I could do it, but then I can't participate. Hopefully someone will step up and want to volunteer.

I like Sean's answer better.

Happy birthday, Brice! The big four OH! Please tell me you don't have to work today. Either way, enjoy your day and have a damn good one!

This is for skinner. He was asking me how I wired my 110. I used this wiring diagram. I made some notes/ additions on it because the wiring colors sort of vary between manufacturers I guess. I have the electric start 110 (107) from DRATV.COM My starter/ kill switch is slightly different, but the diagram shows a basic setup. This diagram will save you tons of guessing and time. Be sure to click it for larger size and then print this badboy up!

Exactly! I can't love how motivated she stays. That's my girl! That's fuggin right! Nah, we wouldn't be so cruel. We'll bring you out on your one day off a month .

No! Eff you, Mark! I'm not even gonna click it. I already spent way too much money on this damn thing!

I'm not too familiar with that motor but it should haul some a$ for sure. My 110 is fast enough! I wonder what motors those R55 guys from last year started with or if they sell larger Lifan motors that fit right in. They were up there like 160-185cc! They are just stupid fast.

It's been a few years since everyone has posted up their rides and I know many people have something different now. I figured it would be nice to get a fresh thread going in here with some current pics of everyone's sandrails. So...post up your rail! I suppose I'll start. 05 Tech 3 turbo Honda 3.5

I'm kind of curious how much rain the dunes got this weekend. Anyone make it out? Chime in if you did.

Last night I went down to visit Anna at her new gig and take some pics. In addition to her TWO other jobs , she is now also a safety diver for the Mermaid show in the big tank in the Silverton Casino. She tends to the divers and monitors the mermaids as well as some other aquarium duties. She was looking for something fun to do on the side for some extra cash and she for sure found it. I am so proud of her. She has taken her career as an aquarist to the top and loving every minute of it. Not many of us have half as much fun as she does while at work. Here are some pics I took. (She is the scuba diver, not the mermaid btw.)

Great video Rob! I love the clarity and slow motion of him in the whoops.
