Valley of Fire NV LOTS of PICS

Postby Mr. Green » Mon Jan 24, 2011 9:53 pm

Went to a group ride put on by a guy from the NYROC web site (pete).
I dont know for sure how many where there but 25-30 is in the ball park.

Heres some pics that 2 guys from AZ took (tim / kat) they gave them to me to use in making a movie.

i took the speakers off in case of a roll over and also my bracket needs some more bracing (so i think).

The new diff did amazing :twisted: :twisted: there where 2006 / 2008 / 2009 / 2010 can ams there and it was cool seeing them side by side.
Mine locks up in under 1 spin for sure and i think under 1/2 even.

The place was amazing and so where the riders.

Nice pics. Serious rock crawling.

I know that area pretty well and if I had to make a guess as to where most of the photos were taken, your group was North of the open mine pit and just South of Overton in that rock strewn gully area.

it took awhile 11 hours or so, its 30 miles north of las vages off i-15. I went down 99 to 58 to 15, a longer way that addeds 77 or so miles and hour +. I made it there in one shot easy but the drive back i was less eager and had to pull off for some sleep, it was how ever well worth it to me.

I could not belive the traction i had on some of the rocks, others there said moab is better but these where close.
