Going out tomorrow to prerun it. I would provide more detail but I got to watch Dexter and I can provide better detail after I run it. I'll have pics and maybe some video.

Wish me luck as it's going to be 104 out there!

or two

On a scale of 1-10 the previous route for day 2 turned out to be a 3. A 3 only because of the scenery. Otherwise a 1 lol. Well the new route is 9! Vanilla Gorilla and I went out today and preran the new route and it's effen awesome! 2 dry lake beds, great scenery, and a trail where we can get some speed! I hit 95 mph at one point and past 70 mph several times.

We will have to drive about an hour east to the starting point on pavement but after that pretty much the rest of the route to Carson City is all dirt. We were able to average almost 40mph for the 100 off road miles we covered which is pretty damn good. We probably could have done better but we had to back off the throttle a couple times because tranny temps pushed past 225.

Hard to tell but I caught some good air at 1:52 and hit 95 mph just before that.

Oh I should have been there. I will have to make sure to be here for this run.

 

[Bigg50]

Yes you should have! But you also got to make da chedda!

I dare say its better than day 1. Day 1 has it beat for scenery though and is still awesome!
