Reno and surrounding areas: Official spotted, BS, and meets thread

Any of you guys work on fire alarms or know of anyone that does? I have some questions regarding certification in Nevada.

Going to put a call in to the state fire marshal this week but figured I'd ask here first

 

the roof the roof is on fire, we dont need no water let the motherfucker burn.

 

Well, that looks like fun

 

o yeahhhh got my new brushless motor my my rc truck. Shit has some serious power. Of course I had to break a wire on my receiver so that cost me an extra 30 bucks but at least I got uber power now. I am going to be doing some sick stuff soon as the weather gets better. I build an interior for my crawler rig as well. Got my Steve Austin in there driving it hahaha. Shit is to fun. I feel like a kid every time haha.

 

I was into that for a while.
There was a killer indoor track in San Diego that they changed every week.
Always just the right amount of moisture on the track. Never muddy or dusty.

 

o yeahhhh just ordered my tickets for Monster Jam. Its down at Levi Stadium. Got the tickets in a close spot for 60 each. Anyone ever been down there? What could I expect?

 

Definitely bring some ear protection, can get loud.

 

O i am familiar with what I will see and hear. Never been to that stadium is all.

 

Well fuck me! I been waiting for UFC 223 and then the main fights falls out a week before. So then they still make a fight I am into and now that falls out. On top of all the 3 other fights got canceled because Conor Mcnuggets's fucking fag attack on the bus. Some bullshit guys. Well I will save 50 bucks I guess. I am balls deep in mma so I nerd out on this sorta stuff.

 

I might be spending a couple days in the Ruby mountains next month. I was told Lamoille Canyon is amazing. Any other suggestions from experience?

 

Extremely jealous. I’ve only driven through the area but plan to do some backpacking there this year. Enjoy!

 

How much do you think these will leak? Tempted to go buy a couple in the morning...figure they can't leak more than my current gas can.

 

That looks like a helluva deal. I'd give em a shot. Spout looks just like the ones on our Rotopax.
I dont think they'll leak as long as you keep em upright and vent them if they're full in the back of the truck in the heat. Plus its costco- if they suck return em! They'll take anything back that you're unsatisfied with

 

I’m definitely going pick some up tomorrow so thanks for the heads up! Like Eric said probably just vent and secure. We’ll find out!

 

They were at the Reno store. I'm planning the grab a couple after breakfast.

My current can leaks pretty bad when transferring the fuel into my truck so I've been looking to replace it for awhile now.

 

They’ll be fine if you keep them upright. I would personally skip those and go for steel NATO cans. They absolutely will not leak and can be stored upside down if you want.

There’s a place in Yerington that sells them brand new. They do 4 for $150 shipped. I have them and they are excellent quality.

I use a super siphon to dump them into the truck.

 

Anyone local running a Treeline RTT?

 

Can never go wrong with a nice VP jug. 40 bucks each though. I got a dark green one and its nice. No leaks.

 

I went back to Costco this morning and grabbed 2. The spouts suck but I can fix that pretty easily.

I also grabbed some noise canceling headphones to drown out these little monsters....


Actually the headphones are so I can hopefully sleep a little better in the hospital.
