Tired, Sunburnt and Broken, but made it Home!!


Recommended Posts

Welp, I'm back from my second WCSS, and I must say, regardless of the fact that I just spent 7 hours on the road, broke my Brat repeatedly in several different way, and have a mild sunburn (wife has an almost severe sunburn), I had a freakin blast. This was by far better than my first trip north (WCSS2), the organization, the events, Everything was awsome!!! Met up with a lot of old friends, and met a lot more new ones, as well as some awsome cars (can we say one of the Gen I winners?). I think the best thing about this years show was the mudpit/obstacle course. This had a bit a design and ingenuity in it, and was prolly the most popular event at the show, everyone was running through the mud, we had everything from Us extreme lifters, down to a WRX ralley car and everything in between (The Forester looks good with mud on it Amanda).

I had a blast out there, I broke a rear axle right off at the beginning of the obstacle run, got out, found another axle and went out to give the adience on the fence a good spray of mud, just after one of the sweetest doughnuts I pulled some major carnage and simultaniously grenaded the just replaced axle, and the rear diff. Pretty sweet if you ask me, no better display of power than destroyed parts. I'll have my pictures up within the next hour or so, got quite a bit of em.

I've got my pics up and going in the board gallery, if you click in, I'm like the second highest poster in the main gallery page, then jes go to WCSS6 folder, I'm way too tired to deal with figureing out cut and paste. I also apologize if I didn't name some of the pictures, or named them wrong or whot not. tired, must sleep, had too much fun, now I know why we only do this once a year, this much adventure and excitment can be hazardous to ones health if given in high doses.

 

Oh ya, also on the broke note, in the whole driving home in FWD thing, just as I'm pulling in the driveway, I hear this click, click, click, yup, front axle, (of course, that all thats in it), but here's the best part, it's the brand new I just put in when I got to Hood River on Friday, only 400 miles on it. Wowza, talk about bad luck with axles.

Oh ya, I gott hand outa a big thanks to Jerry, for letting me break one of his axles all for the glory of spraying down the crowed with a good doughnut. Thanks!!!

Adam, the board gallery resizes all the images. If you find time, can you send me the ones of my car in the mud, but the originals?

 

7 hours??? I made the trip from HR to Sacramento in 9 hours. But I was also lucky enough to follow a Riced honda at 95+ and also a Lexus at 110+. Then in Redding I got behind a WRX. I think he heard my exhaust or something cause he romped on it... and I followed him up to 110, but backed off cause it was Redding, and CHP is everywhere.

 

Mud pit was the best! I think there shoulda been a mud drag, instead of those ditches dug in the center of the track.

i think bekah is redder than my car used to be:lol:

the mud pit was a frickin blast, couldn't get the car too covered though, and on one of my trips off the ground, i managed to squish my exhaust. funny how a half inch of dried mud surrounding the pipe car make the thing sound sooo different.

i'll have my pics up when i get back from work

 

i got pulled over 1/2 mile from home, cop asked me if i was drunk and trying to bribe him. i was so tired i didn't notice that i handed him my atm card:lol:
