Got a little off line on this one and tipped a bit to the passenger side. You know you're doing it right when the spectators come running over!

Had my son and his fiance in the back seat for this part of the trail.

Which trail did do damage? :) is that on video?
Scraped a front fender on the Escalator obstacle on Hell's Revenge. Scraped up the shovel and bent part of the rack as we were lying on our side there. LOL. Damaged a fender on Cliff Hanger also. Bent up the rear bumper on Holy Cross. Bent up another part of the rear bumper somewhere in Moab. Lost of little dings from all over basically. Some on film. Some not.

Holy cross is my list. From what I’ve read, it will be rough if even on 37’s

We were lucky to tag along with an amazingly good spotter. We started out on our own but got lucky. It wasn't that bad on 37s. The long wheelbase helped more than once. We took damage trying the harder lines. You can certainly lose a tail light on the regular route if it goes a bit sideways though.

Want to do it again this year with a 2nd JT? Mine will be on 37’s and a 3.5” lift by the end of the month. I need to then break in the new gears, but it should be ready by the end of march for much tougher trails. It should also have a full belly skid by then if I’m lucky.

Just noticed you’re in Sarasota. We moved from St. Pete 3 years ago. Small world.

Sounds a lot like my setup.

We live in Florida. Usually go to the San Juan's when we go to Colorado. Probably won't do Holy Cross again anytime soon unfortunately.
