Short, afternoon ride on something different..



**Video added...nothing great, I was just trying to get the sound...which even that didn't come out great w/ the wind noise. This was a hang on to cam w/ 1 hand drive w/ the other sorta thing.. So like I said, nothing great. hah**

Vail

Nice! Are you going up any time soon?

 

[rotax]

Prob not to VP till after the 30th..

The skiiers really bother me, you can be curteous and nice and go by slow n quiet and they'll still flail their arms and shout at you...while their on the gd snowmobile trail.
Some of those people need to get a f'in clue...
Can't stand seeing or being around them let alone driving by them in the parking lot.. I wonder if the only reason some of them go out is to give sledders crap and throw fits, sure seems that way from experience, its not the first time. Then again, there are the jack@ss snowmobilers that do the same right back to them...sooo...


Anyway..

Nice! Are you going up any time soon?

 

[wideopenlemans]

Drive with one hand?

never got on the gas???
what with the one hand driving???

 

[bushy]

I think that was "Hand Cam" action there. Nice sled DJ, guess you'll be walking up and over all the chutes now eh? or getting into more trouble than you know what to do with. lol

=p This wasn't really for public...but...ended up there anyway... hah

So yeah, I was driving it like a pu$$y cuz i couldn't hang on w/ 1 hand at full boost.

[yammerhammer]

Awesome DJ, now you can get a full season in... under boost!

 

[tudizzle]

sweet new sled...most would buy at the beginning of the year not the end.


Now what too do...you have worked so hard on the graphics in your name, now you've crossed over! Keeping the name or spending the summer coming up with another great user name?

Why I don't ride VP...

The skiiers really bother me, you can be curteous and nice and go by slow n quiet and they'll still flail their arms and shout at you...while their on the gd snowmobile trail.

I remember before the trails were segregated and it was even worse.

If you're a skiier and you really want to get away from it all, Vail Pass is pretty much the LAST place I'd go, so how can you get pissy with a motorized vehicle up there when the place is practically designed for sleds, not foot traffic?

I love being able to sneak up on peds on the Nytro and then let OFF the throttle to let them know I'm coming. I'm not trying to scare people or anything I just love how you can get so close to peds on a quiet sled before they notice.

I just want to know where my six bucks is going though.

DJ's T-Nytro ain't sneakin up on nothin! That thing sounds like an indy car. Nice (short ride for me) up to buff pass today. Another foot of soggy fresh added to the pile Should be riding into June this year Burnt another piston. I think my fuel box is fried. Two pistons and a Jug in 3 weeks to finger that one out...I hope. Thanks for the tow DJ. At least I caught this one before it totally fragged. I've about had it with the big bore mod thing. Might be a good time to buy a T-Nytro cheap! Take a close look at his name dizzle, it already looks like it has yamaha symbols incorporated.

Looking for late season ride

"Should be riding into June this year"

I am hoping for Memorial weekend anyway!!! Gonna be out then to visit and check out the boosted blue sled

 

[rotax]

Stickin with rotax...reguardless of the money, time and efforts I have into my previous Rotax engines, my name I can't give up! Rotax DOES have a 4s for '09...... Will be watching to see how it matures....with boost....

Yeah, yamaha symbol for my "O" good idear!

And I've had this weird thing with buying end of season with the last 2 sleds... They seem cheaper then! This seasons definately not done for me! But I do need to remember some sun block.

Bushy's coming over?

Congrats DJ. Never thought i'd see the day

 

[Joe Mama]

The weather in hell is now much cooler! Looks like a fun ride DJ, hope to see you at the spring fling in RE.

 

[bushy]

Bushy's coming over?

Yep, soon as I can find someone to give me 20 grand for the M Ah heck, I'll take 15

Turns out it didn't burn down; somehow it sucked a foreign object in and beat the piston/dome to death. Probably a chunck of gravel fell in the pipe when I had them leaning up against the muddy ramp in the garage:confused, or maybe I left a wrench in there or something. I'll have the other top end/piston back on by Wed. anyway so shouldn't need to borrow Chris' turbo for the W/E. lol
