    i am very happy with my decision to go with this complete buidup than to go with a mudox..i guess it just depends on what you want to do, go FAST and float, YEA..or
    go slow and float, well..... NO..

    Whipper and WFO, when are you two hitting Glamis? I'm pretty busy and in school now but, I may be able to make it there and hopefully break my t-20 so I have more of a reason to rebuild it other than leaking output shaft seals. WFO, Nice job on Goliath!

    Darn work schedule.

    Great stuff so far guys. I'll have to ctach the other three tomorrow.

    That redmachine looks crazy fast Joe.
    theirs a big group of people from your neck of the woods that send all their rides to
    the glamis dunes every year on a enclosed semi trailer a week in advance and then they fly out
    and stay in the closest town, brawley, ride for a couple days and fly back, nothing to pack back

    Looks like a blast there. The one landing looked like a spinal tap but the machine seemed to handle it pretty well, and it is very.............quick!!!!!!!! Loved the video!!!

    It was neat seeing you guys chase each other around. I still laugh everytime I see Godzilla on the front of Godzilla.
