Assuming you’re building within the same box as most of us, you’ll be limited to 5-6” Comp travel with a 23-34” belly height, at least with your steering junk (ram/tierod) above the axle. With 12’s this puts you right in the sweet spot with 6-7” droop, I doubt that you want 7-8” droop... I even...

Save yourself some grief & get 12's for the front. Paul

I've heard a lot of shit about those guys but not that, definitely elitists. P

Or will we......... Paul

I suggest you halt all tube work & link it now, as once you do you'll be surprised at how much room everything needs to fully articulate. I don't think your tire will hit the rear crossbar, but when twisted up it might. You also need to get your shocks on & test fit. Did you note that FOX 2.5...

Rick, I spent an entire season trying to tune rear 2.0's. I was literally tuning after every run & even in the morning/afternoon between trails. On the very last run of the season I thought I finally made some positive headway with them, but by then I had made my mind up to get the 2.5's. I had...

As I told Richard when we spoke about the possibility of running again in 10, as incredible as the race is, the race alone wouldn't motivate me so much as the freinds that came out to support the effort. If as many of you are in for another shot there's no way I could miss it. Is it...

You need to realx & enjoy post KOH 09, you can start thinking about next year in..................................October............. Paul

I'm almost all healed-up, just a sore right shoulder/neck. Still worth it:D Paul

Sweet..... Paul

The only KOH car that I've been in is Gaut's, so I have little idea. I'm guessing that it's better than a lot, but not nearly as good as some. Interestingly enough, looking at the split times for the first 23 miles (all desert), the fastest guys (Jason & Randy) were about 20 minutes faster than...

Check e-bay... no doubt someone lifted it before I had a chance to wash it & now it's going to the highest bidder. Paul

Good news Dave, Garry's in for 2010. He'll take care of the LCQ hill climb in CO., & then you guys can start running together again in September:party: I'll miss having The Sugar Daddy as my co-pilot, but since it's for the team I'm good with it:wave: P

I don’t know about the rest of you, but I can’t pull myself out of the KOH slump, I’m even more unfocused than usual this week. Reflecting on the past week my thoughts go to two aspects of the race: 1) The Race… I keep running it over & over in my head. 2) The Team… I’m blown away by what a...

I'm not sure that Randy would have 'smoked' the field, he certainly might have won, but there are a lot of ??? Easy Rick started 86th & caught Jason (1st place) on Wrecking Ball. Had Rick not have broke his ram & had a couple of flats he probably would have motored right on by. Paul
