Re: AZFJ, pics of aug 25 run...

Those are some great pix Dan and Jessa. Nice work! I also want to commend you guys on doing the trail with the stock rubber and doing so well. It is a challenging and unique trail (with all the off camber and 90 degree rock steps) to test your driving skills.

I'm not one to toot my own horn but I'm so pumped at how much my driving skills (throttle control and line selection) have improved in a year. We ran this last year as a pre-run for a CSC event and I needed lots of spotting. This year I ran as the lead truck for the after lunch session and only needed a spot just on water hole with big rock in the left hand side (where you were testing your slider and the TT Ti got a little rock scrape). Of course the 35's help, I won't take all the credit.

Great run and event over all and really good to see all the FJC's that represented. The swag wasn't bad either. Big thanks to the Trail Team: Ron, Maureen, Zach? and Colin? (hope I got those last 2 names right) for putting on a outstanding clinic/demo.

Hey Norm we had a blast this weekend! I was bummed that we didnt get to take more pics of you, Carl and the first group to go through but what can you expect with SO many rigs in one day...
It was the most challenging so far especially since it was the first time I tried the left foot brake thingy... lol you should have seen everyones face when they found out that I did have the course in 4 high... shows my inexperience... the first part of the trail would have been much easier in 4 low, lol...
I do feel more confidet now that I was able to do a trail like that with stock tires, cant wait to see what a difference good tires will make...
