    RZR accident at Banshee Hill 3-19-16

    in Dumont Happenings

    Posted

    Everyone nose dives off that lip. It's to short, with stock suspension the rear will compress and buck up, that combined with letting off the gas just before you launch, and the engine breaking in mid air...it's going to lawn dart. I feel horrible for the injured and wish them a speedy recovery..but I'm also a bit angry someone would rent a turbo sxs, put their kid in it and launch it off a dangerous jump. Please don't think you can watch a YouTube video and go do it safely. They are lucky there were such awesome people there to help.

    Like you said, spotty. Presidents weekend my buddy (AT&T) had to drive to the north pole and wait for an important call because for some reason that's the only place be got service. I've had Verizon forever and get service everywhere that other carriers dont. Including the Dumont camping area.

    Dumont Sub-Group Meeting 3-1-16

    I have a question that's off topic but you may be able to answer. I know it's been talked about on the forum in the past but I don't remember the outcome of the coversations...but this, in my opinion, is getting out of hand and going to get someone hurt.

    What's the rule with people roping off, placing cones, ect..at the top of the finger dunes. I had to swerve off a finger at one point last season to miss a line of huge cones. I understand people want to keep their kids safe, but there's better ways than making it dangerous for the drivers. Next time I'll tear them down myself and the owner can take it up with me.

    Again sorry for going off topic but you and ynot are probably the best 2 people to ask about this.

    MLK Weekend 2016 pics/ reports

    in Dumont Happenings

    If you we're out at the D for MLK you missed out! For the most part the weather was great, a little wind at times but definitely manageable. The place was empty! We had a lot of great runs and even more ridiculous camp fire antics. It seemed like we just kept seeing the same 2 groups out in the dunes, Rees's and Week's lol.

    We came across the rolled maverick probably within a minute of him rolling. Pretty violent aftermath, no doubt he walked away because of his harnesses. Glad he's ok. We rolled it down the hill a couple times before his group showed up. Between the toasted RZR and dismantled Maverick, their was quite a bit of carnage for the small croud.

    Looking forward to Pres. Day and side by side wars. See you guys out there.
