As watertight as Bill has his trucks, it only took about 20-30 minutes to clean both trucks and bodies.



Also, when he said the Revo body was heavier than the Jato, keep in mind that his Jato is beefed up a bit for durability. The majority of the Mud was about 1/4" deep.


After seeing how dirty the truck got, I was actually a little glad that my LST's Diff was shot...

Video guys.. Video!

There will be Video next time we make it out there. We looked all over his house for the Video camera, but couldn't find it.

I want mud videos... Somthin differnt than the 25ft of air followed by 105ft for cartwheels! LOL

LOL.... Definately different. If you didn't land right, the trucks would SLAM into the mud and just stay there.

Im not a basher, but i bet that was pretty cool to watch!

the roosters of mud shooting off of the tires was cool.

i fixed the header and reinstalled the pipe. everything if fine now.

From Plainfield, Take 355 North. It will turn into 290/53, continue north to Thorndale West. Thorndale turns into Elgin/O'Hare Expressway. Take that till the end, which is Lake Street (Rte 20). Go west on 20 to McLean Blvd (Just past Rte 31). Exit South. A little past the Wendy's, on the left, you will see a street, Sports Way. Turn left on Sports way, and follow it backTou'll go around a Driving range, past a couple Baseball fields and Soccer fields, then you'll see a sign for the BMX track. Follow those signs.

the horror......the horror........

OMG someone who likes to do what I do..... I love you guys!!!!
