dunefreak Posted September 3, 2014 Author Share Posted September 3, 2014 If I ever get around to picking up ynot's video card, I can finish the video from this trip! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nwtdiesel Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 Want me to go get the card and deliver it to you????? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ynot Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 I can't find the card. Adam told me that the card was full at the North pole and now the card is missing. I don't remember taking it out and it's not in the case where i would normally put it. I called and left a message for Adam but haven't heard from him. I am hoping he took it and had planned on either editing it or giving it to me and forgot. So until i find out from him go ahead without mine:( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam @ GTP Off Road Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 I never saw the card. I didn't open the case up. I thought the camera was ok at the north pole, but was off when we got back to camp the last time. I don't have the card. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dent boy Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 Last week to this week.... Stripping her down for powdercoat. Don't have much time before the season starts... Had a great time on our early morning run, now I see you guys are talking about going again. I don't think I will be able to make this one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dunefreak Posted September 4, 2014 Author Share Posted September 4, 2014 Oh Damn! Chad is gettin busy. Awesome man. Don't sweat it. There will be plenty of months to dune when the season starts. I'm even down for more day trips during the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nwtdiesel Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 (edited) Damn Chad! What color you going with?? Yea when the season starts the best trips are when we just go last minute for a day. Personally I don't care for big packed busy weekend holidays but you gotta do it a couple times. I would like to put together a Glamis trip this year too. Plus we will have the Buggy Round Up again.

Dent boy Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 I have looked at a lot of samples so far I'm planning on going candy apple red over a translucent silver. I'm excited about finally getting a car this year. I would love to go to glamis, have never been. It's awesome to be hooked up with a great group of people that share the same passions. Newly and I might have to chill with the wheelies and jumps if we want to get a full season out of the mendeolas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newly and I might have to chill with the wheelies and jumps if we want to get a full season out of the mendeolas. Those colors would look good. Im trying to think of a theme for mine right now, going to have it fully wrapped. Funny you say that... I just picked up a spare Mendi. I will have a trans on deck at all times so I will not have down time! I got a great price on it. Can not stop the wheelies LOL I have been doing a ton of Mendi research lately and those 30-40 yard wheelies aren't much stress on them. 80-100 yard wheelie might be pushing it. We weren't dropping the clutch either and that makes a big difference. I found a sweet pump set up im going to install on mine, it pumps fluid from the back into the nose cone when running big hills or wheelies. Doesn't cost much and will save the main shaft bearing and gears. People don't realize it but hauling a$$ up Comp is just as bad or worse then a 40 yard wheelie IMO Edited September 5, 2014 by nwtdiesel 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fastony Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 Newly chillin. .. hahahhahahahah. Lol. That man knows how to get down. If it breaks he'll have it repaired in a day.

Dent boy Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 Hey newly can you post a link to that trans pump. I looked around before but didn't find much info. Thanks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nwtdiesel Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 Here is the link to the pump several guys are running. Much cheaper then some of the $500 pumps out there. All you do is mount the pump by the trans and run a line from the rear trans port into the pump then run the line from the pump to the front of the trans by the nose cone. Run 12v power to it and a switch. When your climbing a hill or going to wheelie just switch it on. http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&alt=web&id=280782665954 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
