It was great meeting everyone yesterday and putting names with faces. I look forward to making a run with you guys this next year. Maybe next year I will do the car crush too.

We'll baptize you at K2. Thanks for letting me borrow the P plant.

I paid for that little stunt later on.... once the adrenaline wore off I hurt like hell. It took about half an hour at the bar to forget about how bad the back hurt. It's all good today and worth it IMO - I kicked myself in the ass last year for not having the sack to get up there and do it.

Someone has to post the vid of Geo going monster truck style on it. That was bad ass!

It was a lot of fun guys! Good to finally see RG moving around again.

Shannon got video of every one doing the car crush except RG- she realized she was on camera mode instead of video right when he pulled up to it. She went to switch to video mode, and he was finished before she could switch! RG just rolled over so fast, there was not time.

I want to thank everyone for showing up!

We had a great turn out! And a great Time!

Not sure yet what all the totals were but I do know they collected around $2500 just from the raffle.

Once again they had great raffle prizes, A Laptop, welder, winch, a number of drills, saws, tow straps, SCORP entry passes, t-shirts, hats, tools, tons of pelican cases, tire deflators, etc....

Congrats To Terrahawk for taking 2nd place in the show in Shine for the Modified class!

Congrats To G for taking 1st place in the show in shine Modified class!


I will post up pics later!

Great turnout at the USMC toys for Tots at the Pasadena fairgrounds today, it was good to see you bunch of misfits.


Here are a few teaser pics, sorry I had to bug out early...

The kids had a blast!


Lots of nice rigs!








Fun with the RTI




Dick showing off.....


Tested out the new lockers, and the back..... the lockers did great, the back... not so much.




Geo pulled a power wheelie on the car crush and got about 4' of air - badass!!! Someone had to have gotten some photos of it!!!

All for a good cause! Plenty of raffle items from winches to parts and even a motorcycle. We donated two seats and blue lot parking to tomorrow's Texan's game.

I'll be there.

Yep you can't use the excuse of not having a Jeep you have 2 hahaha Got ya!

We were hoping to but I have no jeep, been at the dealer for two weeks, will be another week at least, no dealers in the US had a pump I was told. Really sucks too because my eight Stonehenge Uber-Flex control arms are sitting on the garage floor and Lil Sassy keeps eyeing them hinting to throw em on hers

so the 2 door is in the shop...still leaves the 4 dr...come on...no a far drive for ya...just stop in, put in a toy, say hi and BS for awhile and then continue with your day

Well hell.... so much for that idea.

I get their side of it, I will figure out how to make it work where my kids learn about making the sacrifice for someone less fortunate. It was simple with giving one of their toys. I can also see where TFT might get a bunch of junky crap too. I think I will give them some money and then go to the toy store and let them pick it out, you know that they will pick something that they like.... that should be good enough.

Either way it's for a great cause!

Toys For Tots has new Regulations, due to the center for disease control and the board of health all toys must be new and un-open.

We're planning on going this year, think my girls would enjoy shopping for a gift for underpriveledged children.

What we do is have the kids load a box full of some of their toys, some times it is toys that they don't play with and some times they surprise me... I think it teaches them to appreciate what they have and think about those who don't have any.

we're there

Looking forward to the car crush again this year!!! It was cool as hell when the USMC stepped up and stepped ON!!

I am so glad you guys will be able to make it out. Remember your entry fee is your toy! Also remember to bring Chairs, like last years they will have the chili cook off and plenty of food vendors. Also like last year they will have craft and gift vendors......it's a great place to get those last min Christmas gifts!

And don't worry Jody we will bring you lots of toys too! LOL

And I may show but I ain't shining shit.... hahaaa unless I get froggy and drop it off at the car wash one day.

On second thought.... that $$ can go to better use somewhere else... like MODS for the Jeep.

We will be there and the kids will pick out some toys to donate like last year, it was cool and it teaches them to give back to those less fortunate.

NO!!! We finally get to see you again?! Dude- I'm not going to recognize you or your Jeep.

I'm there!

Well, it's my birthday too, so bring some toys for me as well! Preferably in brushed aluminum and black. Won't miss it this time.
