Thanks Chris, Heres one that Mike's wife Angie took of you.


You were able to take some impossible looking line and make look easy. Nice driving skills!

Actually, our trucks are much more capable than most ever can imagine. It's amazing what great spotters like Joe and Paul can do to make out trucks just climb right over stuff. I've got some serious ideas about the rear suspension setup on our rigs where I think it's possible to gain 6-12" more inches of rear travel. Stay tuned in the Fab section soon!

you need a DAZZLE (see pic below) or some sort of RCA video interface to get it from there.

Nice pics guys, although not many of the trails yet. I guess I missed a good one, maybe next time.

Thanks for letting me hang out with you guys this weekend, had a blast. It was good seeing ZMAN and his better half, and meeting everyone else. Seaflea come on down whenever you get a chance and we'll se what we can fab up for the Yota. Chris, awesome driving, really impressed by the 4Runner, too bad you didn't get to do Slickrock, it was awesome. Jeff, thanks for bringing the towstrap Look forward to wheeling with you guys again, stay tuned for the Thanksgiving Leftover Run at Windrock 27 Nov, just have to work out the details.

Good glad to hear that, I was going to ask you about that after I got some more money in my pocket. I'm willing to be the test truck for 3rd gens if that is what your talking about, if your talking about will's 1st gen, then I still propose to have a Darlington Offroad rear bumper for 3rd gens and I want to be the prototype. Let me know when your feeling up to it, and I'll make my way down there, on a Dry, Warm(er), and brighter(no more late night work) day. I would be proud to support the Darlinton Offroad name, and piss Calmini off even more when you expand into a new market.

Mark (ZMAN) has already volunteered his truck and he can leave it with me for a couple of weeks to work out the details/design. But if that falls through I will let you know.
