    this vid makes me want to take the bike haha! I would be done with that trail so fast though! Looks like a blast to rip through. If only i could do it twice.
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=YsljvoPhiwA#at=184

    also, whats this at 3:04? a jeep getting winched? Is that a hard line or is the jeep just being a tard? doesen't look that bad when the yellow one did it. must have just been a tard.

    all in all that was a sweet vid, and the trail looks like a blast! However does not look like a beginner trail haha! can't wait to go on it!

    Yep probably :eek: tons of work to do.

    Think just a bad line and inexperienced. The other vid I posted is a stock fj going over that spot. Will be a fun trail I think. rough. But not killer. Mostly fun.

    Exactly.

    Your the noob here haha :p

    I have found that after regearing, driving the steep downhill sections is a lot easier. I'm not on the brakes at all hardly, like I was before. This trip will be the true test tho.

    Yea I'm gonna put one in. First is slipping jussssst a touch. Better safe then sorry for this trip.

    It's been heavily abused tho. I learned on it. Taught 4 other people to drive stick with it. Plus hot riding it back when i could and wheeling it. It's got life left on it I'm sure. But figure why not.

    Shoshone is a trail I wish I had an auto for. Or just lower gears really.

    I do like the handiness of autos....but....it's just..not as fun.
