They're mostly on the mark (based on my opinions of what's needed for each trail). Everyone who's registered for Holy Cross City and Old Chinaman's Gulch have at least one locker - except a couple 2001-2002 with ATRAC, which should still work fine. Aurora Sandman has done these with just ATRAC. And Jim is signed up for Chinaman's and he is presently still open diffs. We've talked via e-mail.

Everyone seems to be signed up appropriately for how they're built. I'm not concerned about Wheeler Lake, but a few people might not make it the last 10% of the out-and-back trail. No biggie.

Yes it is. It deserves another fart in his 4Runner.

I didn't mean to sound accusatory with the last post about people being over their head, I just thought that the point of dividing the trails was to get half and half on the different stuff and it looks like 3 to 1.

It will still be a great time and I plan on thoroughly enjoying myself, but I just thought I would throw that out there.

As far as Mike, he can put that rig in some pretty tight places, having a good truck is good, but being a good driver is better.

In a month I will be leaving for the jambo!

Is Corey going to come to buff the rigs???

If Corey shows, he can try to buff some serious scratches out of my rig!

Well hell... I'm gonna have to bow out.

I made a commitment that is going to take up the weekends for the next couple of months. Without going into too much detail, I'm helping the AZ wildfire situation in a very behind the scenes way. It's affecting my free time greatly, but it's been a tough couple of years for AZ and there's been a request for help, so I jumped in.

Jeff, I'll get with you to figure out the whole raffle donation thing and somehow we'll get it over there. Jeez, the way things are going, I hope the damn thing is done by then (it will be...)!

Sorry folks, really wanted to meet all of you and meet up and wheel with the folks I already know...

Mike

Yeah - I kind wondered if that was a little too "edgy". If people like that design I'll work on some other "oh -????-guage" wording.

I think the design is great , but like you said, just a little edgy. I would love to have an actual guage that says all that! Could that be done. Heck, I would shell out 25 bones for something like that.

OK all, so far it's been 100% votes for the guage design. So, I now put up 1 more design that I'm still working on but want to get your feedback.

So, if you would help me out and vote 1 more time...


Check out the new design and vote



Thanks.....
John

How about "Pucker Guage"? That would be a little more "family friendly" (a few of us have kids). But the design idea and look are awesome!

The wife and I are trying to juggle vacation schedules to so we can attend the Jambo. As it stands now I will be out there next week sometime enroute to Vegas with a stop in C. Springs to, finally, get my bumper from Rockware. If we can adjust our schedules then we will hold off next week and come out there the week of the Jambo. It's a long-ass drive from North Carolina but we are looking forward to the road trip. How many of you guys are bringing your wives, girlfriends or both (wife's question)?
