Now THAT is cool


Great imagination - production - whatever the heck you call it.

....and did they finish what they started? Or is simply starting enough to be considered finishing?

John, we started but did not finish. A wave washer broke on the rocker arm assembly so we replaced the whole rocker arm. It worked but a piece of the wave washer broke off and made its way thru the engine to the oil pump screen blocking off the flow of oil. This resulted in restricted oil flow which caused engine failure. We will be back next year for the run to La Paz!

By the time I had watched the whole thing (with a big appreciative smile on my face) my "DNF Right?" response was no longer appropriate. Unusually professional work. Thanks.
