Here's a couple of pic's of Brian at the CalRocs event this weekend.

Maybe he will chime in and let us know how it was.

Thanks Dan, I hadn't seen the last two yet! Rock crawling through cones was very challenging. Many times we misjudged, and just brushed the cones. Very frustrating at times! Our goal was to complete most the courses, and see just what the buggy was capable of. The entire weekend was a huge learning experience, and some of the funnest wheelin I've ever done!

The first pic was a serious off camber risk on B4. We choose to take that cone, but you still have to hit the cone with the same side tire or be disqualified. Mike Schaffer rolled on this gate, and took himself out of contention.
The second pic is the finish of B4. It was an easy climb, but I turned back to the right a little to soon and the SX rubbed the gate. :(
We also made the bonus climb on that obstacle -10 ;D, but we took a bad bounce and hit the bonus cone +10. >:(

The last two pics were on A3, also known as the "Money Hill". We planned to winch up it, but the Milemarker winch crapped out! >:( So we gave it a few good try's, and moved on to the next obstacle. It was pretty crazy trying to climb something that steep without the winch sucking the frontend down to the axle.

Thanks for the Support Dan!

I pulled all of them from the pirates gallery. Sounds like you had a great time. What happend with the Milemarker winch?

[KingOf_Pain]

The winch sounds like it works, but the spool doesn't turn. >:(

Here's me in my group.

Figured out my winch problem. The rod that goes from the motor to the gears was actually for a 8000lb winch, so it barely reaches the gears. Milemarker is sending me the correct part, asap.
