  1. I do it all the time! I have a 30 ft fifth wheel and a single axle 12 ft utilty trailer, although my 5th wheel has a heavy duty frame I make sure to balance the load on the utility trailer very evenly not putting to much wt on the tongue ! it pulls great , But even with a well built hitch i still wouldnt put much more wt than a rhino or three quads on it or u will damage the frame IMO!

  2. i will be sure to help with the lights next time just let me know when i had fun pulling out all of those big trucks but i had to get help a couple times too.

    livetodrag do you still have my tow strap?

    I remember pulling this truck out ! If I had know you guys needed more help with the lights I would have went back and helped ! anyway thanks to everyone who got the lights out there and set up !

  3. Before you guys take a thread about a great night and day at the dunes and turn it into a bashing topic about litterers let me just say this.

    Yes I think it's bullshit that people don't pick up after themselves, but I doubt that will ever change. Dirtbags will be dirtbags. However...another thing that will never change is the the number of responsible duners that continue to keep their dunes clean by staying after and picking up. It sucks to do, but some people don't even mind because that is a very minor chore for a fantastic night at the hill. I'm not saying it's ok, but anytime you get a large number of people in one area, there is going to be trash. In the end and on Sunday when we left, the fact is that the hill was very clean and the camp area looked even cleaner than when we pulled in. I know and saw many people cleaning up (including ourselves) after the races. The good apples always seem to out-number the bad at Dumont and that's why I love the place so much.

    I can't wait for the trip in August. I'm positive it will be just as good if not better. :beercheers:

    I couldnt have said it any better! and I saw peeps of all races littering myself !

  4. this is me! I had a little trouble with my carbs but once I got it going shee ran pretty good! Its kinda hard for a fat old man to compete with the skinny youngsters ,lol but it sure is fun trying . I am hoping to have my son on it at the 8/8 night drags.

  5. I just hope at the next one people are more considerate and stop leaving their trash and beer cans on the ground. We pulled up to watch the drags and I noticed a lot of trash laying around. Remember pack it in and pack it out. We all have to do our part to keep it clean out there. Other than that, was an awesome turnout. Some fast a$$ Banshee's out there. Hope to see everyone out there next time.

    Yeah i wont say any names but we had to clean up after the guys next to us! and yes PACK IT IN PACK IT OUT !

  6. Hell yeah! No prob, Eric. We can only hope the next one in August is just as good or better. I can't wait.

    Yes it was great time and if we get word that there will be lights I will make the trip again ! lets trys make this one even better !! and yes thanks to who ever brought the lights

  7. Maybe these signs don't exsist out here, but back East there are signs on every major road that say:

    KEEP RIGHT EXCEPT WHEN PASSING

    Having only been here for two years now, I could only wish that that rule was followed. The fast lanes anywhere west of New Mexico seem to be anything but.

    Sorry to stir the pot, but the left lane is for folks moving faster than the folks in the right lane everywhere I've driven except out here.

    Haha not talkin any smack but those signs would have to be bilingal to do any good out here! EL getto the fuggo outo the wayo !!

  8. at least that is the law in cali! here in nevada they can travel in any lane. so when trucks hit vegas they all go to the inside to lanes. very frustrating to have rolling road blocks over 3 or 4 lanes. i understand that they dont want to deal with all the merging traffic. but it sure screws up traffic having trucks across all lanes and packed in the fast lane. :dance:

    huh I didnt know that about nevada ! its frustrating for us also ! In my opinion on roads that have 3-4 lanes they should have trucks that are going thru in the far left lane and the ones that are getting on and off in the right lane only! it is a touchy suject with me! I get the finger no matter what i do! if I slow down and let cars on the people behide me give me the finger! if I go fast i get the finger! if i dont get over and let cars on the freeway i get the finger!! when I first started driving there was this thing called common courtesy it is sad to say it is a thing of the past! all I can say is if your getting on the freeway and a truck is in that lane comming up and cars are in the lane next to him for gods sake step on the effen throttle and get going! if he has to slow down to let u on it might be another 1-2 miles before he can get back to speed! this is what cause back ups at the on and off ramps! and trust me I know there are alot of effed up truckers on the road 2

  9. driving to work today, im in the fast lane with one car ahead of me, with no cars in front of it...2 lanes in one direction....slow lane filled up with trucks.

    I catch up to this car in front of me... :booty: hole is goin 50 mph...im not kidding.... i back off about 5-6 truck lengths...and ride it out until a place to pass in the slow lane......black smoke spewing out the side of my truck.....i swing over into the slow lane...and...................................

    now that :booty: hole wants to speed up.......im @ 80 mph ...pushin 29 psi boost, foot in the floor, and the back of a truck is coming up quickly......and this fugger is right next to me azzhoe :think:

    so i slow down, and swing back behind her....yes a lady, and the beeeyotch slows back down to 50 :dope::finger:

    now im pissed...fuggin hi beams and my HID's illuminate the inside of her car like daylight :dance: and i just keep them on, so, she finally gets over in the slow lane, but now effe it, im on a mission....so i swing in right behind her, with my highs still on...and she goes back to the fast lane, and i follow suit....she slows down, i slow down...i pretty much mirrored her the entire way until my exit.

    b*tch....you deserved it :finger:

    there, now i feel all better

    OMG thats funny chit right there I am a trucker I feel your pain everyday! and I feel your response was well warranted and I would have done excatly the samething!! one more thing that gets my goat is the dumb a$$es that dont know how to get on the freeway! sorry people but I will no longer move to the left lane to let cars on the freeway because if i do everybody comming up from behind just gets over and passes on the right not letting me back over! even if my blinker is on !! IT IS THE LAW that trucks can only use the right lane on a 2 lane freeway except to pass! and there is no law that says i have to get over to let some dumb a$$ going 45 without a clue usaually talking on a cell phone !! on the freeway!

    there now I feel better 2
