[QUOTE="tonybolton, post: 692517, member: 3432"] Well, on that last section, that big stupid rock used to be OFF the trail on the right side. For some reason it rolled smack dab in the middle of the trail. So while you're climbin' this steep bastard in 2nd gear, spittin' out the volleyball sized rubble rocks underneath you, you hafta climb the embankment on the left side to get around it. The first time it hung me up, 2nd time I expected it and went around it no problem(felt like **** though cuz I went WAY high on the left and was off camber), but then fearing that top ledge again I tried steering far left and cutting back right. When I did that, I had the wheel at full lock right and it popped a driver front U-joint. Atomic is a cool trail for 1 ton stuff, and honestly I'd run it a few more times IF it was closer to my usual trails. It's just not fun for me to trailer to a different trail head, unload, drive some gravel/dirt roads just to run that one trail....then drive same gravel/dirt back to trailer, load up, go back to usual trail head and ride stuff that I like. Now, if you got some 80K 1 ton JK on 40's....hell, that'd be the way to go. But I only got 79K so it rules that option out. :) [/QUOTE]
