Re: Pismo Blazers>>>>

Looks like fun! Is your green Blazer actually a different rig or did you just paint the whole thing green? RyanB's rig is sweet. I'd love to have that thing out on the Oregon Dunes.

Re: Pismo Blazers>>>>

I think it looks better all one color. I always liked the brown too though. It looked (and with the flat still does look) tough.

Re: Pismo Blazers>>>>

Doesn't the salt water cause you problems with rust or do you give your blazers a thorough rinsing after you play?

Re: Pismo Blazers>>>>

YOU GUYS SUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Pismo is great and you are lucky to go there.And,you guys don`t really suck at allI have a problem with controlling my envy.so,NO APOLOGIES!!!!

I traveled past there in`03 traveling SF to LA.I could feel the vibe passing by.The mini-van kept pulling to the right and it took both hands to keep it from veering onto the exit ramp.I prolly would have got stuck anyway.Man,for miles in either directing I saw rail jobs of all sorts trailered and I knew what was up.I could smell paddles on sand from 25 miles north.
Green is good.Heck,you`ll have a chance to repaint in due time.

No, because I don't thouch the water with my K5. The first year I went there, like 1996, I drove my K5 into the water..acting like I was in a movie driving fast and water spraying everywere..
By the time I got home my undercarage was red ~ bleeding and crying out rust....wire brush and pressurewashing + spray paint I vowed never to ever drive in the water again. Water = Bad ~ Sand = Good
I just pressure wash off all the sand when I get home and that seams to work out fine.

Ya, that is my biggest issue lately, this time the camera was being used by my wife so yet again I have no pics. My buddy Tori took the ones I posted up...I wish I had some action shots from Saturday Night out at CompHill = BombFires, Fireworks, underage drinkers getting arrested, stupid jackoffs in a lifted truck that daddy bought sweervin & deervin almost killing every one in it's path....some poeple are soooo stupid ..I guess it keeps things exciting...just stay the hell outa the way!
Good Times!

Re: Pismo Blazers>>>>

I'm getting really tired of these repeated camera excuses! One time it's dead batteries, next time the pet dog is using the camera, then there's the old it's broken excuse! I'm fed up!

Sooooo, next time you go out, I think I need to find a way to go take care of the camera issue. Have camera, will travel! (I wish!)

I hope to be at Comp Hill by August.

Did you fab your front and rear bumpers? Could you post more pictures of them? They look beefy and I'd like to copy them.
