sweet azz pic! Those riding boots really do kick azz too! They seem to match yor gloves really well too.

As a mechanic myself I understand that. Let me rephrase that then...."there was no sign of why it blew up" The Yamaha dealer repaired it under warranty so there's no way he could have found it anyway. Unfortunatley when a motor blows up really bad, there's almost no way to find out why it went at times.

Sounds like Aaron's (sand yfz's) old 426. He had his catostrophically blown up more than once. No reason why eaither.

yeah we got a lil sun, but not too burnt up. haha, yeah it cruises great (have a 700R4 overdrive trans) but still gets under 10 mpg due to the cam and carb I am running. I didn't build it for economy though. Its a fun truck. :shocked2:

Just wait till richardcheese hears about this! :shocked2:

We headed out to the Mint 400 to Pit A area to help recovering broke azz race cars today. Good times. Pauly Paul, Angela (fmflover), her cousin, wingnut, and crasher were all out there since early that AM. I think me and Anna got there about noon. Good times mobbin our half tons through the desert. :shocked2: Pauly rescued a BUNCH of cars before we got there. When I showed up we found a car that was broke down that needed a jump and we helped him out. After that we helped a guy out at the checkpoint the that superdave was working. I think the guy lost 1st gear and needed a push to get going. After all that we mostly spectated and threw back alot of cold ones at Pit A. :chug: It was a gorgeous day. We got alot of laughes in as usual and saw some pretty cool race cars. ^ There...thats my half a$$ Mint 400 trip report here are the pics... helping the guy with a jump start... lil race action of trucks and buggies.... chillen at the checkpoint with superdave headquarters :chug: Pauly sportin the OG Mint 400 material :afro: badass

...and what might that be?

sorry I missed it guys....we were pulling race cars from the desert all day out at the Mint 400 :shocked2: Any pics???

:shocked2: awesome

Not gonna happen here. I'll still have some lights on regardless. I don't see how that would help anything anyways if it's only for an hour. :shocked2:

:shocked2:

:shocked2: It disappears? Like after the page refreshes or when you click add this attachment? Most of the time people's pictures are way too big and need to be reduced in size before uploading.

YOWCH! Wow, Jim...that looks painfull. I'm glad you didn't get MORE hurt. I wish you a speedy recovery. Let us know if there is anything we can do for ya.

Man this is messed up , but kinda funny at the same time that someone wrote that.

Good times last night. Good to see you guys and especially Michael. :mc_smiley: How else would you like me to hold my beer? Behind my head? And that pizza was badass....only like 9 bucks too!

Does he have a front engine sandrail? I heard thats what it was.

First off they don't take in a million dollars a year. And second, I don't think Dumont needs ANY improvements. I like it just the way it is. BUT, if there is grant money that is going to be allocated no matter what, then I think Dumont is higher on the prioirty list than other places. I don't see why you haven't understood my point of this thread yet. I was trying to make it clear that the money would be better spent on recsue vehicles or for expenses that Dumont already has.

Thats good to hear, Becky. I figured something would have been on DD.com if it was one of his buddies, but never I saw anything. Good to hear they are ok. Let us know how he is if you hear anything else.

I heard there was a burn incident at Dumont last weekend. A buggy with a front engine had the radiator hose spray on the driver, and a little on the passenger. They evacuated the driver with 36% of his body in second degree burns. The driver's first name is Jim. Does anyone know him or how he is doing? I hope he and the passenger are ok. :boyyy:

cool Call me when ya get there. Glitter guldge? Last time I went there (and the only time) it was a 3 drink minimum per person and you had to buy them all at the same time. For two of us it was 36 dollars for 6 beers all at once. I told the guy call you hang on to those so they don't get warm, wtf? He said no you have to have them all at the same time. Needless to say...we left. :boyyy:

I think I am going down to Fremont tonight for the Mint 400 tech/ preparty. Maybe I'll see you DDR people down there. :boyyy: Eddie you still in town? Let's meet up, mofo. :afro:
