  1. I had a decent weekend. Killed a cv.....samurai made the rescue mission . If anyone found a kick starter.......it might be for my banshee, I would love to have it back. I built a new car for my kids, and they both drove, and had a blast. The bad news......last night, a car tumbled down comp........about 20 times from the reports. Well they camp with me, and were right behind my trailer. It was a black SU car with red/blue/yellow graphics powered by a 2.5 turbo suby. The owner was not in the car, he stayed behind in camp with me. We were talking probably when the accident happened. It was one of his sons, and a friend. Neither died, as we heard stories today. Both were ejected, neither were belted in. One got a nasty cut on his keft leg/ sticthes.......and bandaged. He was back at dumont by sunrise. The other was injured, and is at umc. So far it sounds like a full recovery is in his future. He is pretty banged uped, and Im waiting to hear an update. The car is destroyed. It rolled basically from the top of comp about 3/4 the way down. I was told the hill was closed from about 9 pm till around 1 am.... The cage held up fine, two cracks from my visual, some slight bending in the chassis. he big deal, was the light bar. The light bar caved in the roof rt on there heads, so it may have been dumb luck that they were ejected. The light bar pushed the roof in 6 to 12 inched right at the head rests. So check your light bars, make sure they are wider then your roof rails, so they cant come in.

  2. Was a good weekend. My car started acting up Saturday afternoon and wouldn't come back down to idle speed. I got back to camp tried to do some adjusting and also found that my electrial(alternator) light wasn't coming on whrn I hit the switch and waited for fuel pumps to come up to pressure so I have to look into that also. Finally decided to put it in the trailer and the belt(s) were screeching so i tightened down the alterator bracket this moring but It didn't help. So I chilled out and have some work to do. A) find out and fix car issues as described,B) repace water pump in grandson's yfz,C) find a electrial short on the RZR's lighting system. Good side was they all went into the trailer on their own power and it was a nice weekend but I am with Pete and want the off weekends. Just to many people this weekend so it was more of a social thing for me but did get in a couple of good runs with Bert on thursday and Friday afternoon with Pete and the boys from Sc. Cal. Terry
