    Sup dudes I'm heading to Ocotillo (Not Ocotillo Wells) this Friday afternoon for an afternoon/evening run if anyone is interested. Haven't had the truck out since the front was finished last week.

    Looking to leave SD around 1:30 pm and be back before midnight. I'll be entering the washes north of ocotillo off S2 to the railroad tracks and following them to the plaster plant then heading home.

    Ocotillo is south of Ocotillo Wells SVRA just off I8 west of Plaster City. It's cool man, next time :)

    yup you'll be just fine, I've got recovery gear as well if there are issues. Oh and 4x4 :D

    Well after bugging the boss I am not allowed to take any time off Friday. We have a event I have to help out with Friday afternoon to set-up and they want me to attend that evening since I am a presenter from the conference thats going on.

    Can we grab a beer Sunday or Monday Eddie?

    It's just going to be around a 4 hour run or so. Pics are in the build thread :)

    Bummer dude at least you tried, for sure let's get a drink on Sunday.

    Hahaha I'm down for a camping trip again out there as long as the Dunlop shirt comes along...
