Labour Day run in Welland
Here's a pic of me from my first run ever in the Rubi. Of course, I forgot my camera so I have to rely on pics from others, will post some more if I can find anyone who took some.

I guess you've been down to Welland before then? It was pretty fun, I think I spent about $14 at the car wash with the pressure washer getting all the mud out from underneath the truck. The crew there is pretty hard hitting, we had a good turnout, about 10 trucks and I bet about half were trailered in. They were pretty good though to the noob. They knew I didn't want to get body damage so were careful to tell me what I proabably could and couldn't do. There were bypasses for all the real tough stuff. I'm still in awe with what my rig can do and I know I didn't come close to pushing it to it's peak.

If you ever want to go again, let me know. That's where I grew up and my parents are still down there so we go visit quite a bit. Didn't have anything chewed up this weekend (that I know of at least). From what I understand, it's alot worse if you go inbehind the old GM plant. They did that on Monday but advised against me going.
