QUOTE (BETSY28 @ Nov 8 2009, 07:45 PM)  [attachment=2765:085.JPG]I now understand the phrase Crawling Is For Babies!!! That was Awsome!!! Honestly it was the most fun I have ever had in a comp also and I was only along for the ride (also the roughest). Mat is an AMAZING driver!! I will ride with him anytime. This was Over 2.5 hours of HELL YA!!!! compared to the 5 -10 seconds you get in crawling. I cannot wait to go back down next year. HELL YA 3rd out of 31!!!!!!! Thanks Mike & Clarence for giving us a hand down there. Don't you to look cute together.  Good job.looks like you had a blast down there.

We had some tools straped into the spare but the ride is so violent that the tools ripped through the end of the bag and were lost.

Number of downloads: 7Here is the exhaust. made a hell of a noise after that as the muffler was sitting on the front yoke.

Number of downloads: 10The plate for the steering broke causing the buggy to be a little loose on the last lap.

Number of downloads: 8Also the bottom of the passenger seat melted away so that I was sitting on the muffler cooking my ass! The heated seat option was nice for a lap or two as it was so cold that our horn froze and didn't work. Also the tranny will probably need a rebuild. The buggy didn't have another lap in it. So it was a good thing it was all over. As it was when we crossed the finish the buggy stalled. Mat did roll the machine in the pre-run on Friday. It is definatly a different sort of comp. It will push both man and machine to their breaking point and beyond (but I cannot wait to do it again). -------------------- CONTINUED PARTNERSHIP WITH
