Somehow a fuel line got wedged between the body and the gas tank just enough to make the engine act like it wasn't getting gas. It ran fine before and when I put it on the trailer, but wouldn't run after that. Unfortunately I didn't find the problem until I got home.

She can't be related to Phil..........
poor girl
I heard there was a protest about her tires not being cut down- 37's the tire incident, and also the frame deal was another issue all in it's self.
Next year all you boys with cut frames or extensions better be ready to move up into unlimited class or have some buggies to deal with in the legends.........

None at all...........

So, the question is, have you ever done a spotter ride when spotting Chris?:eek:

I honestly don't think I would ever get in a vehicle with him behind the wheel, LOL.

Yeah, those aren't very good odds, LOL. A lot of people roll, but when HE rolls, he always seems to hit HARD(and it almost seems like he hits hard on purpose too, LOL).

He approaches it like a movie star or athlete if he does great then awesome and if he doesnt then he rolls or busts and his throttle is wide open.
That's what the crowd wants and thats why hes doing as well as he is. People remeber that stuff
How many times do you get told at work hey great job,
Or how many times do you get told damn that sucks you screwed up, great show though.
That's what its about.
Sponsors are hard to get as it is.

That was my thinking all weekend(Supercrawl). How many times has Chris placed top 3 since he won RCAA series a few years ago? Also keeping in mind that he enters a LOT of events. Okay, now who DID place top 3 in all those events? From the spectator standpoint, WHO CARES! Everybody is always talking about Durham. It was hilarious to see the crowd follow him at the Supercrawl. Everytime he finished an obstacle, it was almost like the ground was moving. Everybody was heading over to see him on the next obstacle. From a spectator standpoint, it's great to follow who's winning, but they really show up to see the SHOW. If you had a pile of cash, who would you rather sponsor to get your name exposed?

That's why Durham compete's as a full time job(if my sources are correct), and a lot of 1st place guys don't.

Anyway, that's my $.015

Yah I would think that thing would have trouble climbing walls without slamming on the skinny.
Cool though
