Second day -- back to the stages...

Stage 2 was a lot of packed snow (over ice? you can see the shiny layer below the snow)

Stage 6 off-roading... we went straight off into sandy soil, skipped over a rock, to a soft landing. Good reason to get a HAM license.

Learned a trick: build a ramp out of rocks.

You can see the big rock we skipped over, and the dent it left in the skid plate. Without the skidplate, I think we would've had some serious damage to the underside.

I know, i know. I was trying to be funny, but I've been up since 5am and uhmm am not really awake.

I really wanted to join you guys for day 2. Just too busy at home/work to be gone 3 days.

In my head I was thinking They must've got lost, said "phuckit our time will suck, lets go have some fun!", and you guys found them day 2 still rallying out in BFNW.

I still enjoyed my time there though. maybe next time I can be in car 0 since i'll have my tech license soon.
