The only thing I can say is....CARNAGE. I'll post up after I get my finger looked at. It's quite the pork sausage right now.

I'll post the pics of my damage in the AM. It'll be in the body shop later in the week I suppose. It certainly isn't pretty. I'm amazed I didn't lose any of my windows. Then there is the fractured pinky knuckle. One lesson learned is to never put your had out the window to stop the inevitable damage. You'll break something other than your truck. Me and the truck will be out of commission for awhile.

Sorry to hear about your finger Phil As if your FJ damage wasn't bad enough. I will say that you took it much better than I would have, and you are a real class act.
While my day wasn't nearly as bad as Phil's, I now have a few items that need fixed after the run. I broke off my front driver's side shock and wasted a 14" Bilstein in the process, dented both of my new tube fenders, slightly caved in my front lower body, ripped a rear brake line and smashed both window channels of my doors. The brakes were the worst, since I didn't realize it until I was going down a huge rock face and had no brakes! I had to throw it into Park, and I didn't think it would ever stop! Despite all that I had a great time
When the weather warms up a bit more, I am definitely up for another run at either the Cliffs or Badlands before mid-May and GSMTR. I hope everyone else had a good time, and it was nice to see our Chicago friends again as well as some new faces.

Every time I see your rig Clint I almost always drool! It's quite the little bad arsed truck! Thanks for leading yesterday! It was quite the adventure! I hope you get it back on track soon! I appreciate the good will you've always shown us Chicagoland Yanks!
In the meantime, Hydrocodone does wonders for sleep! I'll let the pics do my talking of my damage. I still cringe when I see them.
