I suffered no ill effects from the crash except my pride, that was my first rollover in 35 years of racing, so I guess I had it coming. To tell the truth, it was kind of fun, but it's not worth all the work to put the machine back together! Thanks to Bud and crew for putting on a great weekend for us.

    Good to hear. I was in the pits, heading to the track and missed it, but my family was hanging out by your family and I got the run down on what happened. Still couldn't see anything from there. It's not a race w/o you and Dad in it, at least in the 30 years I've been watching!

      Yes it was a great race! My wife got most of the race on her IPad and I will upload it when I figure out how. It looks like my rear springs threw me over when they extended after the hard landing. Need to put some smaller ones on the back for that light machine. But I was getting it on because Jeff was in it to win it and he had all six wheels on! Will this get me into the springer rollover hall of fame?

        Perhaps if there is a picture, there could be a new wall of Air-Thuds.

        My new beer holder spilled some on the trails - in it's hair and down it's throat.
        Joe Camel never does that.

        Advice is free, it's the application that costs.

          Maybe it'll be on next year's plaques.

            I'd like to thank bud and the track crew for a great time as always and the help with a minor repairs. I do believe I found the gremlin living in the country bumpkin with any luck it will perform as it should at the next race

              Nick, I was involved in a roll over a few years back. Not as bad as yours, but it still wrenched my neck. I wanna neck brace for next month. Everyone should use one.

                Bradley the only gremlin hiding in there is that self distrucking engine so does this mean you got a new power plant.

                    I am glad to see these events picking up steam with 6x6 world. Great people putting these events together. WOW what a roll over nick. Glad to see you had a full roll bar. And super glad that you got out after you rolled then you laid on the ground and my heart sank. I now know if I want to race full roll bar to frame. Sorry your machine got ruined.

                      Here's some video of the Free for All race.

                      I was not able to finish this because of some wiring/ignition issues.

                            Now that's how it should be, smooth and straight. Great how-to video.

                            That table top seems to have a bad hop on the left side.

                                Here's some in-car footage of the Powder Puff race... Take it easy on me, I don't really do the whole video thing yet.

                                Plenty of tangling with Miss Cheney in this one if you want to give her the heads up Jim....
