it is true, scouts can fly!

The flight of my orange Scout is reminiscent of the flight of the "spruce goose" :lol:

in all seriousness I had a great time today getting all the bugs worked of orange. I also was able to get out of the heat, 97 degrees in the valley vs. 71 degrees at sandlake.

The beadlocks worked great! I had 10 psi up front and 5 psi in the rear. I tried going lower in the front, but the tires were rubbing on the springs.

I even got to pull the ramcharger out of another nasty mess, sis loves to get that thing stuck.
 
71f??? Hope ya had anti-freeze in orange!!!

And yawl didn't break nuthin'??? No gittin' upside down?? Yoda ain't got his helmet on!!!

Pink needs ta git her neck wrung out on the sand next!
 
You better be careful on how high or often you get orange airborne or else you might be slapped hard with heavy regulations and required to use only aircraft grade parts. :icon_domokun:
 
Went back to sandlake today and had a kick ass time. Orange ran the best it has ever run, Mike mayben thanks again. I even got to tow home a mopar.

I thought I saw the orange Scout near pacific city. Now I know I'm not crazy! But looks like you gotta change the battery on your camera... 2004?

I know I need to fix the date, I keep forgetting. You probably saw maranda driving it home, I had to use my trailer to haul home a broken mopar.

I know this video is not a Scout, but it caught more air than my Scout could safely get.

And now...I understand that the beckycharger has plenty of negative camber on the front d44??

That's one way (the redneck way???) to change the camber onna straight axle with no camber adjustment designed in!!!!

Yep, it needs a whole new axle. Negative camber is now an issue. :icon_down:
