We Rock USA Rnd 2 - Team OPW Running

Post by Tuff Events »

Hey guy's.
Just a quick check in to let you know that today was an absolute shocker.

A3 was my 1st Course was great with a -2. Had only 2 backups cause I am still too wide....

A4 next up.... had major steer pump problems & Air switches for the Transfer Case leaked & emptied 2 air bottles on this course alone, had to rush through the cousre taking a cone, rear steer & about 8 back ups to
nurse the steering issues. what a bugger.... +19

Worked flat out for about 2 hrs trying to fix the pump, fitted the same pump about 4 times, finally getting it working again...

A1 - With all that done and dusted, I was over the whole weekend already. But scambeld back. Hit a cone & had a couple of backups... Drove the bonus +5

A2 - Well, after only two backups & nailing the bonus line, realised I had a slight LPG leak which ran me out of gas 1.5 buggy lengths from the finish line with 1 minute to spare, no chance of pushing it as I still had a ledge to drop off & possibly throttle out of if needed, so had to conced defeat. DNF +37........ Bugger me....

So tomorrow is Bonus Day for me, they will all be done, or I will DNF the course trying as I have no more to lose... Time for some well needed practice...

Tune in, I'll update if I can...

Cheers
Pete

Can't kick my arse I am about 3,000 miles from Globe. I wanted to go, but all my deals fell through. He will have to kick my butt at the GNC in Boyd, Texas.
