The interesting thing is that Gwagensteve has never posted in this thread and just the other day he let his Sierra have a rest

Ahhhh I remember it like it was yesterday.....

I had very very light brake pressure on. Greg's car at that point had about 120:1 first gear and the lip on the top (which is more evident on the driver's side than the passenger) is what started it off.

you can hear the brakes creaking in the vid and then as the car starts to head down the hill I backed the brakes right off - just enough to keep it stable... or so I thought. I'm dumb but not completely stupid :D I know I couldn't go down there on the brakes.

The spooky thing is this car is amazingly stable- It's never even looked like rolling before or since, even when it's been on some insane angles.

The whole way down all I could think was that I as A) Going to land on my head and B) I was going to screw up my doors, which I loaned to Greg.

He ran them for nearly 3 years and never put a mark on them and I've hit both in the last 4 months with them on Piggles, shown having a little rest above. :roll:

Where the video of piggles roll? CJ?

Which track? What steps? Where?

If you ask a more detailed question it is easier to get an appropriate answer......NOOB! :finger: :D
