    Joe and I ran part of Wolf Den and Falls Dam at Uwharrie, and we did pretty well except for a few underbody scrapes here and there. Neither of us sustained any damage, though, so with your lift, I think you'd have been just fine out there.

    Just got in and what a trip! Need more skid plates!

    Stay tuned for plenty of photos, vidcaps and maybe even the Dragon "KLONK!" video. LOL!

    Unfortunately, due to some rain encoutered between here and there, most of my Uwharrie "make-up" washed off. Oh well, at least I've got pics!;pg;

    Talking

    Don't know if you saw that lifted Ford we passed right about as we crossed into FL, but at least your left front corner didn't end up like that left front corner.

    Yep, trip ended like it began eh? Still got enough mud on there to make me happy. :-)

    LOL! Let me know when you'll be back in town and maybe we can hook up for dinner and I'll bring you a CD. Including some entertaining footage John shot of David and I tackling a particulary challenging trail with our ABS still powered. SLIDE SLIDE SKID SLIIIIIDE THUNK!

    Joe's "sliiiide thunk" shot.

    Trust us when we say, it wasn't nearly as easy as the 2-dimensional photo suggests.

    Ya know, the pics are great but pics don't do it justice and it looks like you could go around the hole in the pictures, which you couldn't.

    Thumbs up

    We certainly did, and considering Joe and I ran pretty much stock (no lift, no skidplates), we did very well in some challenging terrain. Joe even did it on the stock Duelers and seemed to do just fine. Hopefully someone has pics of some of the harder stuff. Johnnyapollo and Joe may be posting some, since they were taking pics of mine from behind when we did the run. I think our VXs earned some respect that day.
