Is it just me or does Bobby appear to be running for his life?

Yep, that's pretty much it.  When spotting, I always have an exit strategy.  That time mine was to jump and run for my life.  The open guys had to use a lot of skinny pedal right there and it jumped to the left really quick.

Great pics Torn. It was great wheeling with you again.

Thanks for joining us Bobby. It was nice to have someone a little more familiar with the trails.

FWIW: I was able to get the bead reseated after hosing if out with the pressure washer and using a strap.

Thanks for the spotting Bobby - you did a great job and we truly appreciate your running around keeping us wide and long jeeps out of the trees, at least most of the time.  :18:

I wish I could have gone.

Who's green JK is that?  I really like that soft top.  I think I have seen it before, but forget the manufacturer.

That's Jeff (Rescue X) from KC. I think you sold him some shafts in the spring when his blew up.

It is a Bestop bikini top (or the mopar sunbonnet... pretty much the same thing) and duster, but he has the 2-door wraparound windjammer on it. It is not totally designed to fit the 4-door, but a lot of guys have either stretched them or gone to fabric shops to get a little extra canvas added. I think he runs his year round that way.

Hey Big A... your wife was doing some appholstry work when I was over there Thursday night. You think she would be able to add a little canvas into a wraparound if I bought one?

I like the ones for the 2 door. I have been wanting a bikini top for a while. That's another choice for me now.

hehe

We have been called husband and wife many times, But she is not mine, But my best friends wife! lol

I am sure she would be willing to make this. She really has some talent with the sewing machine.

Come over and discuss it with her, She would love to have more business!

Torn was the only JK that was able to get out of Rocker Knocker on his own!

Bobby and his TJ made it also!

Too bad you didn't video Keith in the red TJ trying to make it! He was giving it hell with TONS of skinny pedal!

Ross, why did you let out of it?  Seems if you would have stayed hard on the throttle you would have had a shot at making it.
