not sure what days i have off next week... however, i went to carnegie a couple weeks ago... quite frankly it sucks.... its ok, but there is no mud in the pit, and the trucks are restricted to the valley floor and its not that big a place, basically trailriding is it... hollister is also local and a much better place to go... either way, i would probably be up for either, pending i have wednesday off and i have some $ by then for gas/food for the day....

ok, talked to a friend with a explorer with 33s, hes down for carnegie or hollister... i told him hollister is way better though, so we are probably going to go there... anyone else going to come? its probably going to be a head up there in the morning, stay the afternoon, and head home semi early, as to avoid major traffic....

well i spent over an hour out at carnegie today... didnt see anyone else out there other than bikes..... jumped my truck a few tiems, and almost rolled once..... glad i didnt... ifs has no flex but it actually has more flex than my rear solid axle?! in one of the pics im on a ledge type thing, and he rear right tire is off the ground completly, and the truck is relatively flat! go figure... i need to do something about that rear.... 2 wheel drive with an open diff and no rear flex, just doenst work.... a locker, gears and some rear flex need to definetly put into the works....
