Name that Bender

[DB_1]

Hey gang, just found this site and decided to register.
I know this is ancient news but wondered if any of the Benders remembers out at the last TDS uprighting a TJ that was in our group. He was playing on a 5 ft high or so "rock" (if there is such a thing out there) when he flopped over on his side. Some of the Benders crew came along and helped us out. The rigs in your group that I remember was a toybuggy, a camo'ed toy with a spinning spare tire on the back and a couple others I don't quite remember. Not to be outdone, the toybuggy took a shot at the boulder too, flopped over as well but drove out of it while on his side! Pretty damn cool! Anyways, just wanted to say thanx for the help out there. I have pics of the incident...i'll have to dig them up and send them out to whoever wants them.

I believe the buggy was Re:Todd, and the "spinner" was Krusty.

David --WELCOME to the Bender board !!

Im not a Bender, but I was part of that group, in the spotted Toy. I knew as soon as we got you uprighted that Todd would try the rock too :D

Thanks for the warm welcome...nice to finally meet you guys.(well, virtually)


Oh, on a side note to the jeep in our group who flopped over...the brother of that guy who was driving a straight axled Exploder flopped over too while we were heading back to camp. We were in one of the washes and he was going a little too fast through a tight twisty section trying to get ahead of us. He didn't even break a single window, just a few large dents and a bruised ego. graemlins/moron.gif

Thanks Pat, hopefully i'll be able to hit the trails again soon. I've got my truck apart right now so i'll be awhile.

That guy (John) in the jeep that flopped over has a 5.5" RE long arm kit and it works very well. He just pushed his luck a little too far by seeing how much he could inch his way over that rock.

Arrrrrg! Sorry about that gang... I had to change a setting on yahoo photos to be able to view.
