so at some point, do you think we will do a run like they do over seas to try it out? I'm fat, have a desk job, and could use the exercise.

We could do one but it won't be part of the series. We could try a demo day where we run some trails, but that type of rally also requires a lot of work, if people are willing to help get A to B courses set up Im sure we would be willing to try one out.

Thanks for the props guys!

I see most of you guys running stock mini TT tires on your rigs... Is that what you guys have found to work best in all terrain?

They actually work pretty well..........."thumbsup"

I was just about to say that. I'm actually happy with how they work. I think it was a good idea to have the stock tire rule. One less thing to figure out, and spend money on.

I agree, We went back to stock on all our rigs... Just can't find any anywhere to replace the worn out ones
