    All you do if find some whoops, video it, change tuning settings according to what it "Should" be doing and go from there. Experience goes a long way in knowing what to adjust though..I can help if Im around, I know a thing or two about setting up suspension on trucks.

    Haha. That's why I didn't take the bait. My comfort level is a lot lower than yours. At least I can learn something by following your lines.

    Once it's out of the shop they are gonna help tune it. But I'm pretty clue less when it comes to tuning.

    When we do tune it we are going to plaster city. Using the trail beside the road there.

    Your truck was crazy fast before links. It's going to be ridiculous now. I really miss the stability/weight of the 2nd Gens but like the simplicity of my 1st Gen.

    Sign me up for that tuning session. When are they estimating your truck will be done?

    I have a National Hare and Hound race next weekend but good to go after that. Next weekend is the hardest National of the year, that club always tries to kill us with crazy terrain. Half the shit I wouldnt want to walk up or down with a fucking rope, and gotta ride my dirtbike up and down these things, lol.

    Then I think the KOM is the weekend after that, might pass on that one. That one is nasty, bike damage guaranteed!!

    Even Jason called me crazy that day for trying to keep up in a mid travel truck with his jeep. :rofl:

    You can tune that thing anywhere really, plenty of spots on OW, I can even wear my GoPro and ride near you and video that way. We dont need no stinking roads!

    Bring a fordable table, nitrogen tank and some spare oil and you can revalve on spot.

    Cause everybody else was driving like grandma was surfing on their fucking hoods! Shit even the long travel trucks were telling me to slow down since I was leading, and Im driving a bucket with wheels compared to those things, I was expecting somebody to blow past me at some point!
    Haha. You were driving like your supposed to! I like it.

    I can bring my nitro setup if someone can bring the table. No room to carry the table with my single cab.

    Are you considering actually changing shim stacks out there? I was just thinking about playing with the clickers and possibly spring preload..

    That would explain why I haven't seen you much, lol? New management here, messing up payments, raised rent over $100, but we get emails when the water gets shut off now! LOL
