Completed : TECORE X - Fractured - George's Revenge

by **NC_IslandRunner** » Sun May 04, 2014 11:52 am

Another TECORE finished, more fun to report.

Fractured cause we were, planning had enough waffles to make eggo jealous, the second we hit the first trail Jamie lost his steering, George got off a few shots at us the second night, we couldn't find the casings, never piss-off George, he has a vengeful spirit!

More details and pics to come!

Good stuff Jamie!

I've been looking over my videos, and I think I can get something good out of it. Just a matter of finding the time to edit it up.

I'm alive. Nice pictures so far. I'll get mine off my camera sooner or later. Can't wait to see the videos!

It was a nice weekend everyone

I had a great time and had great time driving my truck over all the terrain. It was fun seeing what it can do at the current stage of lift. :safari:

Yeah, those Radflos were such a major improvement over my old setup. The driving and handling experience between TECORE 9 and TECORE 10 were a stark night and day.

This post is over in the random picture tread thought it should be here also.

Funny story. During my install of the 2" rear spring spacer and Z71 springs I had to remove the end links to make it possible for easy install. So I just tie wrapped the bar up out of the way with the intent of removing it. Sort of forgot about it until hitting a few rocks at TECORE and one finally did this. :lol:

Yes I know I also did not remove stock spare. :facepalm:

After much group discussion and few on shit moments on my part. I was able to get a txt message out to JD via v7guy (jason) to bring a sawzall and blade however I did not get a reply if JD got the message. So we tried using a partly worn hack saw to cut it with little success. My buddy Scott suggested we put tow strap on the two ends and we used TrailShaman (Jamie) winch to pop it back over the axle and we removed it. Guys wanted me to mount the sway bar to my hood as horns. Hmm No :angry whip:

I guess you can say Dave and I got the Yoda mobile by the horns. :lol:

Its going to take me a while to get my video done. I still haven't found the right music to set the video to. I didn't take any pictures this time. I guess I've been too many times. Won't have the time to do the editing for a while though.

Dave, thanks for putting together your video. It filled in the holes when I wasn't there.

Thinking back, this was probably the most scrapped together and smallest group yet, but it was still a good time.

I agree, it was a fun trip. A whole lot smaller than the last 2, but still fun nonetheless.
