Woolys 1-26-08

Cole · Jan 27, 2008

So I went to Tenn. this weekend to hang out. We ended up goin to Woolys, damn it was cold. Never really got over 38 and there was Ice on the ground and the ground was frozen and later in the day it just sorta melted. It was extremely messy. I didn't get alot of pictures, but here are a few I got. Will have videos later once I get them converted and uploaded and they should explain the pictures.

Timmie hung up on a tree.

Once he winched off the tree, he went back and tried again and made an awesome save, but this happened. Luckily he carries a spare ram and he had it fixed it no time.

The Tree's that caused the damage. One to the left broke the ram and the other one hit the cage.

Headed over to the Wall. Greeted by this. ICE

After about 30 attempts and some awesome saves, this is what happened.

He was about to roll and slammed it in Reverse and floored it and hit a tree that was behind him. The Tree broke the Shaft. Once I get the video uploaded you will see what I am talking about.

Has Timmie tore down his rig yet? That thing has taken some abuse, surly theres some stress cracking going on somewhere. Hell ,mine hasn't seen half the abuse and my cage is bent to hell. Seems like everytime I flop a rock hits somewhere on the tube and wahla another dent.

Cole · Jan 27, 2008

Brad we talked about that yesterday. He is gonna clean it up real good and check for cracks and other stuff real soon. It does have some dented bars, but I haven't noticed any cracking. I was looking over it pretty close this weekned when we were hanging out in the shop.
He said he may tear it down and repowder coat it, but he said it would just be the same again in a few months.
It really is a testament to how well that buggy is built by how much Abuse it takes. It amazes me and pisses me off at the same time.

P.S. Youtube is down right now so might be a little while before I get my videos uploaded.

Glad it wasn't that cold in T town this weekend....Nice pics and videos as usual Cole.

That was a good save in that third video! Too bad he broke the ram.

Cole · Jan 27, 2008

This is the best video in my Opinion. He was hitting the wall at like 30-40MPH, it was crazy.

Good deal, you have one awsome rig.

bigsilly · Jan 28, 2008

You guys really have created a whole new type of wheeling. Now what are you going to call it? I know Cole does not like Nolen's term "bug mashing". So what is it? dunno

Ha, that statement is completely untrue and completely impossible

InDaShop · Jan 28, 2008

I thought it was point and soot.

Timmie no one can ever doubt that you actually "DRIVE" that buggy. Its not point and shoot, you can tell it in the vids, you're in the air coming the wrong way, and whaaaalaaa the rear steer kicks over in midair and you land in a save. No idea, but you're connected to that buggy. Superb!
