Post up next time you head this way. I'm just right there at Fort Riley. I'd love to see this in action.

Will do, it's been 16 years since I went wheeling there wasn't sure what to expect. Definately one little section with some good climbs.

Sounds good. Let me know when. Looks like you were back by Widow Maker and Jeep Hill. Some of the more dicey stuff like Hare Scramble might present a challenge to you.

Still one of my favorites :dblthumb:

Thanks for the compliments guys!

Finally getting comfortable in the rig, been swapping springs adjusting bumps ect. One thing I won't be changing is the power this bitch has. It may not be the best rig out there or have the best driver but the sumbitch flat gets it and a blast to drive. Regret not getting stickies but the way I'm eating tires I might have to pull the trigger next time..
 
Tow rig kickin ass and taking names pulls great. EGT's get hot at times on loooong hills in OD but I just down shift to help it out. If I could change anything it would be alittle more gear in the rear end.

Buggy is a blast stupid power which may have lead to losing 2nd gear. Trans is getting rebuilt right now should be back together in a week or so. Getting it dialed in still but it is plenty good for a "recreational bouncer" HA.

Plan on hitting Disney or SMORR next.
