I should be up by next weekend.... if we don't start the rework... I am in!
Is this the same general spot that Red Rocks is at?

I was talking to Alex.... some of us might make this an overnighter.
I just looked at a map and I guess I thought it was further than it is... Google is telling me 2.5 hours drive. Not bad at all.

Maybe.... just maybe I'll run the Hammers the day before or the day after this run with the RockBrawlers.
Any interest in doing that??

Grrr..... no worries!
Damn it.... RCV now wants the whole CV joint as the engineer wants to look at it. Apparently they now think I need to limit steering to 42 degrees (not sure what it is now) and it would correct the problem.... they think the shaft pulled out of the joint.
So... this means I will miss this trip.... which is a bummer, as I have never been. I should be up for the Hammers.

I thought they were sending them too. But there was no star cage and that was cracked as well.
They decided they wanted to look at the joint... so I put it in the mail yesterday. He's telling me to limit my steering to 42 degrees, but all their ads boast of how you can get all the way to 45 degrees, so something ain't right. Then he was talking about the shaft possibly slipping out and that is when he decided to have me send it back.
He gave me a bright idea to beat the shit out of him at KOH if he doesn't deliver before then. Really... he said that. Too funny.

his bright idea should be videoed, should it go down like that. it's time for the consumer to stand up(i'm only in it for the entertainment value)
