Scott managed to break a
rear driveshaft flange but he had the parts to fix it and was soon back on the
pile.
 
The pile was rearranged
several more times but we still managed to run it without too much trouble.
 

After lunch they fired up
the monster truck and actually ran it over the rocks! It must have felt
incredibly tippy for the driver being that high up in the cockpit.

the Hooters girls ;)
 
The pile seemed to grow
taller towards the end of the day.
 
 
Tony even braved the rocks
in his Daystar equipped F250!
 
I doubt the girls had to
twist any arms to get a ride in a rockcrawler.

 
Bob launching the Rancho
buggy up and over the rock pile! Playing in a pumpkin patch of boulders
like this is kind of hard on the gear. I ground my rear driveshaft flange
down during a speed run through the pile and lost one of the u-joint caps
knocking my rig out for the rest of the day. Later, Mark Mason's rig spit out a
profield on the rock pile with Tony at the helm. Despite the carnage it
was a fun experience and the BTG Rockcrawlers would like to thank Daystar and 4
Wheel Parts for inviting us.
