Dirty Turtle, Saturday the 22nd

We had such a blast at DTOR last week that we all decided to head back.

It seemed to work pretty well, meeting at the Union KY reststop (MM177) about 8. Even with my flat and the group gas-up, we hit the park about 9:30.

Current list:
Me, Robert - WrenchMonkey
Nick - Coppertop
Tom - ComancheDude
Chris - GotHodgie
Camden - BlackCJ
Luke - LukesTJ
Jim - BeerGoggles
Kevin - 93Krawler
- RunOverU2

And maybe:
TonyV - BrokeAgain
Nick - NoMods
- Underpowered
- SonnyBob

Chime in and I'll update!

See ya!

Robert

Cool! Installing the the one you "found" on the waterfall?

I got my new bottlecap on, and a spare in the toolbox.

The winch solenoids I ordered didn't fit at all, so I have to rework the mounting box. But I'll manage...

Heck no that's a yota exhaust.. Good to hear your rig is good ,I bet you cleaned a bunch of mud from the radiator.

I actually cleaned the whole rig. I think that's the first time since the CORE Tour in November.

You know it's a helluva car wash when you have to SHOVEL your DRIVEWAY afterwards!

Don't know if your buggy will fit on a UHaul, but you can get one for $50 a day...


Looking like another really good group! See y'all next week!
