  1. I met him many years ago out in Glamis. His rails were state of the art when VW's were still the powerplant to have. I tried chasing him around out near Osborne Overlook and could not keep up. I think he had a 2276 or 2333 and I had my lil ole 1835. I went to his shop when I was ready to get a new rail. His prices were more than I could afford, But he was still the goto guy when you bought a rail in the early 90's. We crossed paths a few times over the years. Couldn't miss his lifted Ford with Mazzone painted on his door. Sucks that he is gone. Sounds like he went out doing what he loved. Hope it was quick and painless for him.

  2. That is a 4.0 motor used in the OLDS Aurora. Shelby was going to use these in his new car he was fabbing up. He scrapped that project and a lot of these we for sale a while back. I run this in my rail. I love it. 280 HP tops, but it moves my car around with no issues.

  3. On the border fire in San Diego

    We might have crossed paths out there. I was all over that place checking our area. The fire was right where I work. Its crazy to see what a couple of dozers can do to the mountains in a couple days. Our roads are huge now. I am going to bring my drone out there and get some Ariel shots now that it has calmed down.

  4. I will be helping out in this years Baker to Vegas run. I think my support leg will take me right past Dumont. We are slated to start at 9am Saturday just North of Baker. So if traffic is all jacked up feel free to look for me and give me the one finger salute.

    I am planning on flying my drone for some footage for our team so I hope we are near the dunes while I am out there. After that I am Vegas bound till Monday!

  5. Drones are a money pit, be aware.

    I now have a phantom 3 Professional. an Ipad air 2 to see it way better than off my phone and I just got my 3rd battery along with 3 16gb media cards.

    FYI- I was talking to FE135 about holding the down lever all the way and some people were saying it would cause the motors to shut off and crash. I tried it and it will not shut off the motors. It will shut off the motors when it confirms it is at the altitude it was at take off. So doing a rapid decent will not turn off the motors (atleast on the professional version)

  6. Sandy the Elf is all geared up and ready for the Night time Fire pit activities! She made her appearance last night at the house.

    I got a Drone and hopefully it arrives before Thursday!

    I will also have my Nitrogen bottle incase anyone needs to top off their shocks.

  7. Sounds like one of those laws only enforced if your caught blowing things up while high on meth and there's no Dumont pass hanging in your window. In other words, doing something really stupid.

    Like lighting a mortor in camp when BLM is driving by...
