A little desert excursion 8/08

Post by MrD »

I have only had her for a few weeks, and I wanted to take her out for some little fun. :D
I went to lake mead recreation area in Las Vegas, NV.

I found some back roads roads to drive around on. I found a hill to climb and didn't realize the sand was so soft. I got a run at it and started bouncing all over before she started to sink. I put her in 4low to get out and managed to hit the only desert tree(bush) that was around.

Next time I attack the hill: slow and steady, rebuilt carb, new plugs and etc, hopefully new 29-31" tires, a 2" body lift.

The hill :idea:

Those "little scratches" are great at breaking the side mirrors or smokers windows
