Just got home. Supposed to be at a party, but I arrived and could here the Mariachi music before I even got close to the house. Turned the Bronco off, but couldn't manage to get out. Packed it up and went home. Gonna be in trouble in the morning. Anyway...Huge thanks to Matt, Andy and Steve for coming out today. Had a great time! Andy took lots of great video. Even some in-car. Haha! It was a blast to get to finally drive hard for a bit to see how things worked.

Also thanks to Matt for having the testicular fortitude to get in a completely unfamiliar vehicle and flog it!

I had a great time for sure! The bronco handles incredible. Thanks B for letting me jump in for a few passes (you need race seats). The faster it goes the better it works. Thanks Andy for riding with. And was nice metting you Steve.

The video says it is, but I'm not satisfied. Haha! Before changing anything, I want to freshen up the leaf packs and add bumps in the rear. I think I can tune the front to eliminate the need for bumps. It's close now and will take some big hits.




Sooooo.....I stopped in Phelan for gas on the way to my parents in Pinion Hills. I think the intersection was Beecham or Beekley? and Phelan Rd. Anyway, I hear a glorious rumble and turn around to see two absolutely perfect looking linked Broncos come around the corner all dirty from playing. Just stood there in awe with major envy. They looked and sounded so sweet! Just not something you see everyday. Didn't have time to grab the camera, unfortunately.

You didnt chase them down and tell them about GFB? And if YOU were in awe (with how nice your bronco is built)....what should I have done, pledged my allegiance? :mrgreen:

I saw them yesterday too when I was BROKE DOWN AGAIN WITH A CRAPPED OUT FUEL PUMP! One was red the other silver. The red one looked like solo's 3 linked bronco, and the other I hadn't seen before. I was on my way up to Phelan as well.
I'm just here for the views. It helps me feel wanted.
