New England B.S. Thread

So we made it.

Flat tire on the trailer about 45 minutes away. Never went over 75, rated to 81 and popped like a balloon. Had my old small guys in the boat and changed them out fast.

Then 20 minutes later I see a puff of smoke and pull over, one of the fenders I loosened to move a bit I must not have tightened all the way and a bolt came out. Took the other off and now I am down one.

Had the impact gun and sockets so it was easy and not a big deal, worth it in the end anyways!

 

Went to the supercharged indoor kart track last night with three of my cousins. Had a blast. Wish the races were longer and also wish ppl would move out of my flipping way! Lol. 3 races 3rd, 4th, and 4th

 

That the new place in wrentham? looks like fun but have heard they're short races from a couple other people that have been there as well.

 

How fast do those things run?

 

Yea each heat is only 7mins :/ and I think like 30-35 for the pro vs semi oro

 

One of the brandy new tires?

I love cart racing. I haven't been to one in forever. We should all do it sometime!

 

Yeah, not sure if it was over inflated when installed I didn’t check and so that’s sort of my fault. The second one looked a little high. My wife took her reader out of the car for some reason so I have to grab one while up here to check them.

Gonna find a tire place up here and see if they don’t have a similar option and then see if I can’t get a full sized spare set up too. I have a plug kit and compressor but the cord wouldn’t reach the boat tires without unhitching the trailer...not something I wanna be messing around with on side oh highway. Quick tire change would be better, at least in my mind.

 

Nice photo, where in Maine?

 

Yeah that sucks. That's the main reason I always try to go with a brand name I have heard of before (although I know the brand names are making the no names).

 

But they don’t put as much into them. It’s like they make them for WALMART, so it doesn’t matter.

 

Branch Lake in Ellsworth. Great great grandfather built a cabin on the lake here way back when and the family has been coming up ever since. Dads side is originally from Bangor via Ireland.

 

nice, enjoy.

 

@TRDisco this is the New England thread

 

Bunch of pictures from yesterday's trail ride over in the original thread: https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/ri-spot-saturday-8-24-9am.624318/page-3

Rich brought his trailer out to play and made it up the rocky climb with it, but not the step-up on the gas line.

 

Very nice view!

 

I’m in !

 

Yeah get the eff off the highway is my frame of mind. Get it to a safe place and rethink your next move.

 

And..... She's up. Going to be weird not having a motorcycle for the first time since I was 16

Just can’t bring myself to like this post...

 

Looking to move my SPC LR UCAs. Came off my old truck, didnt need them for my third gen. Please PM me if you’re interested!

Ball joints are good, one boot has a small hole in it but holds grease fine, it’s $12 to replace them if you really wanted to.
