    A few of you guys joined us, a few of you guys didn't even know about this, but either way we wanted to share some photos (got some excellent ones!!) and experiences with you guys.

    Here is a link to the gallery:

    http://www.4touge.com/gallery/thumbnails.php?album=24

    Killboy also has about 50 shots of us up on his site (www.killboy.com)


    and we were also lucky enough to have Changaroo ride shotgun with Dana (sparta) this weekend and get some more great shots. please check out his site too (www.vtakmedia.com)



    thanks and enjoy!

    -Jake

    Missed a good time as usual.

    What roads did you guys drive when you were up there? Was it just the Dragon and 28? If so, you missed out on some really nice roads. Need to follow Matt(2pt5RS) or I around up there. :)

    I was up there with them...we started to hit the skyway, but there was too much snow and ice for it to be any good....I told them about wayah bald road and others, but there just wasn't enough time to do that as we got up there saturday afternoon and left sunday morning.

    :)

    I also didn't have my car with me. t

    Lol the road was all ice and we were cruising at only about 15 mph. I was breaking the rear out on purpose on the ice and ended up not being able to stop once I started sliding.

    Damage isn't too bad. You can see it in some of the pics but its mostly just bumper damage. If my headlight were actually bolted in it would have been crushed but luckily the zip tie just broke and pushed it back. Zip Ties FTMFW!

    Yea that's why I'm not bitching about it. Everything still works so I can't complain. Now just more incentive to get a sedan front end

    We all know that the best thing to do is stay off the brakes, but who actually does that when their daily driver and themselves are about to plummet over a cliff?
