Denny - does this rig look familiar? The guy in the black shirt was the best spotter I've ever watched/listened to - he was basically driving while his friend (sitting in the buggy) just steered, and executed the instructions given him.

Sweet - be sure to post up some pics when you have them installed.
I finally got around to taking some pics of these mods :






Jason, you will be happy to know that I moved the non matching spare and hid its blasphemy:


I relocated my tag to the back door too. I made a custom mount that also houses my backup camera. It is raised off of the vents:

Lots of great looking JKs (and other 4wd vehicles) out here in San Diego. Problem is that when I try to snap a photo of one or talk to the owner about it they get all defensive and I get the 'death look'. Stupid Californians

Default Windrock

So the best thing that could happen may have happened. My work has sent me within 30 miles of Windrock for the whole week... Im thinking that I should take advantage of this.

I was surprised at how unfriendly the other riders behaved. That aloofness would be considered weird here in Bama, but I guess it's just everyday normal in the cereal state.

Default Trektops

Denny and I saw a 4DR driving down the road sporting a Trektop the other day (the guy was probably doing about 50mph). Know how you can blow up a paper sack so that it's all puffed up - that's how this thing looked, like it was ready to pop.
