So Cal desert rats

[O-TAY XJ]

Actually they were farm implement & aircraft tires... SWEET flotation... Bill probably remembers those too... :wave1:

8" wide wheels were thought of as being WAY too wide & 30" tires were big... the side walls had to have the bead spread out to get them to seat...

Long ago...

Curt

Had them on my first sand buggieatriot: Back in the day!! You use to make your own wheels cause no one made them!!

[Paul Airhart]

Yeah it's Rockin around here, with the clouds, that light show last night was awesome.

 

[TheFox]

Would you rather hear the beat of techno or wake up to the hornet's nest buzz of 20 Indy cars at 7 in the morning?

 

[Paul Airhart]

Indy cars. My Brother, Nephew's & a couple Friend's work it every year. I've been a few time's.

 

[TheFox]

Well, it's about 5 blocks from my house here in LB. I used to live close enough to the polo grounds to hear Coachella too. I'd probably lean towards the techno beats. I'm what you call one of those "techno goofballs"...

 

[Xtreme XJ]

Indy cars... They don't run till 0200 then have an endless line of buses transporting said "Damn hippie wicken dope smoke'n techno goofballs" and it's not a 2 week long event actually a 3 week event with Stagecoach...

[Paul Airhart]

I built the center at Tahquitz & Avenida Caballeros. The Palm Springs Grand Prix went for 4 days and the property was in the infield. I'd go in My trailer and catch a nap during practice around 2:00 pm. Didn't keep Me awake. That sound is like music to me.
