    I believe it would have been the first Ax at ZuZoo! How cool would that be?
    I'll try to get some more pics up later tonight. Getting ready to eat right now then its off to the Dubsters casa de Moab Red Rock to download a bunch of his photo's and upload mine from the Poison Spider trail.
    A little story since it was an accident and no one got pictures...
    on part of the trail there are these twisty sand burmed curves...
    I sort of got overzelous with the skinny pedal...
    apparently there was a couple of "bumps"...
    lets just stay I got air...
    lots of air...
    so much air that upon landing all 4 tires went up in the air a second time on the bounce!
    The boss (wife) was not amused
    There are some cool photos of some more jumping antics on the sand dunes (part of the trail)!:bwgr:
    Photos later!!!!!

    Billy, Biju said he wouldn't take it on the trail - but still, he could have driven it TO Moab! Oh well, he still represented Isuzu love with all those collectables he donated!

    On the trail, someone mentioned "responsible respectful etiquette" - and that was, no posting of pics of vehicles being strapped. Someone else didn't get the memo! Sweet, I say! So I'll try to cover my arse by saying I was the last VX to get to the obstacle after all the other vehicles chewed up the terrain and dug huge holes in places that already had huge holes. I should have been near the front of the group in this case. Since my rear diff is open there was no way for me to gain traction in the silty slop - trust me, I tried. Finally, as I let off the brake my floating VX would hop on the driver front tire and then back to the passenger rear tire making it seem like I was going to break something even though I wasn't even on the gas pedal. So at the base of the first obstacle, I was getting stuck every time I stopped. Instead of wasting time fighting it, since we were all at this hill way longer than Todd intended to be, I was just strapped up the whole hill... However! I was able to keep slack in the strap most the way up to proceed under my own power, if only that blasted Jeep wasn't in my way... Later that night, I got an "award" for being strapped the most... if you think about it though, I was only strapped once!

    Pics coming!!!
