• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Lets See Your Other Toys!

Just thought I would post some pics of my first Can Am. It was a 2013 Can Am XMR 1000 with a 4" lift, turner axles, 32" Silver Back tires with 2.5" lugs, QSC primary and STM secondary clutches running an OEM Maverick belt, Muzzy true dual exhaust and an VFJ fuel controller. 18" + of ground clearance! It was a beast! I did the build on it myself. I just sold it last fall. Hadn't had time to ride it for quite a while so I let it go. Still miss it tho!

I can't leave out my wife! After all, she is the reason I'm on this site and why we have a Spyder. This is her on her 2013 Grizzly. She is an Alabama girl and grew up riding dirt bikes and ATV's. Best of all, buying ATV's was her idea! :thumbup:

The morning run at Lake Castaic was around 11.17ET and a tick over 110. Not really that fast. Much Much faster when the previous owner had it. He actually raced it. That night was my 21st B-day bash. Greg Shoemaker built and set up 5 if i remember correctly. This was #3 with #1 and #4 at the bottom of some lake and i think firebird raceway. Wish i kept timeslips and more photos. See below.

My Sanger Flat bottom was a 115mph boat but that was river duty and brown shorts were mandatory to run it. I had a friend run it cause it was way to light and i didn't have enough huevos. A mild 468 BBC was all she needed.

All of our family pictures, outings etc. up until i was about 30yo would fill a quarter of a shoebox. So many memories lost with no pictures or videos and my aging brain. I vowed when technology was good enough that i would take pictures and videos of everything. I started about 12 years ago and have 10TB of both. When i pass nobody will every say they can't remember this or that with me involved. My friends and family got upset at first until i made a yearly montage video and the rest is history. I can only say that NOBODY knows if they or a loved one will be here tomorrow or 100 years from now so i believe vids and pics are our best way to remember them. Now that my Spyder is back in action i have a new vid and audio set up that i hope will be fun to watch. Ryding Sunday and will be testing the set up so stay tuned.

Jeep are fun too! I had a Wrangler for a while. I'll have to look for some pics of it. I agree with you on the pics and vids. I like doing videos, but editing is sooo time consuming! You will definitely have to post up your video of sunday's ride. My wife and I are headed out for a ride tomorrow. It will be her first ride on the new spyder... legally anyway. :D She just completed the 3 wheel MSF course yesterday and got her M3 endorsement on her license at DMV today. I have a feeling we will be riding on Sunday too if she has any say in it! Twist my arm... Hahaha!
 
My Other Wallet-Draining Toy

1951 Oldsmobile Deluxe 88 Convertible Coupe. Bought new in 1951 by my grandpa for my father's college graduation. One owner car, lots of family history in this one!

Here is a picture of my Wrangler I had a few years back. Sorry about it being sideways. It seems the site is turning it. It is correct on my phone.
