Author Message   Glenn Guinto (Glenn) Posted on Tuesday, May 28, 2002 - 11:11 am:    Inspired by Bud's mall crawler, I thought I'd post this pic of my slinky rig while flexing at my favorite parking lot trail... -glenn   Paul D. Morgan (V22guy) Posted on Tuesday, May 28, 2002 - 11:47 am:    Sweet. Glenn, You need to bring a photographer next time. That way you can capture the "moment" with your head hangin out the window.   Greg Davis Posted on Tuesday, May 28, 2002 - 11:52 am:    Glenn, to get that much flex, are you using cones or retainers in the rear?   Anonymous Posted on Tuesday, May 28, 2002 - 12:00 pm:    Are your stabilizers disconnected? :-) The roof rack definetly overextended your springs!   Kyle Posted on Tuesday, May 28, 2002 - 12:04 pm:    Well , am I the only one to notice that Glenn here has upped the ante by including two extreeeeme obstacles (The tree and the pole)? Kyle   Anonymous Posted on Tuesday, May 28, 2002 - 12:05 pm:    Next time you do the same obstacle, take a limb riser! You don't want any of your trail recovery stuff getting caught in those low slung branches ;-)   Glenn Guinto (Glenn) Posted on Tuesday, May 28, 2002 - 12:15 pm:    lol I can't pick out the culprit for my enormous flex in the springs. At first I thought it was due to the roofrack and my poseur Jerry can, but I thought about it hard and realized it's probably the firestick that I recently installed. Greg, I haven't resorted to those yet, as you can tell on the pic I already have plenty of flex. Paul, I'll remember that next time! lol -glenn   Glenn Guinto (Glenn) Posted on Tuesday, May 28, 2002 - 12:17 pm:    Kidding aside, this was taken after driving all night from the Fiddleheads in Maine. This was on our way back and was taken at a McDonald's rest stop at 6:00 in the morning. The group kinda suggested the idea just for shits and giggles! Fiddleheads, BTW, was not much to talk about although the trails that we did on our own and the scenery is a different story. Not to mention the food! Lot's of Lobsta and dining by the haba (read as lobster and harbour). -glenn   Anonymous Posted on Tuesday, May 28, 2002 - 01:46 pm:    I think your rear tire is about to come off the ground!!!! Do you have extended brake lines? KOOOOOOL   mantaray (Mantaray) Posted on Tuesday, May 28, 2002 - 07:15 pm:    i think you need limiting straps.   Milan Posted on Tuesday, May 28, 2002 - 08:54 pm:    You guys talk about flex and stuff (pun intended) but did anyone notice how the Disco body is leaning to one side? I'd have a dealer look at that, especially with pictures for documentation.   JRoc Posted on Tuesday, May 28, 2002 - 09:40 pm:    How bout the Chowda??? LOL, Wazup Glenn? Just got in from work, and first thing I did was hack off my front air dam. Dremmeled that baby right off! Looks sweet! Anywho, had a great time in Maine and I'll talk at ya soon. Thanx for the pics.   Chu Posted on Tuesday, May 28, 2002 - 10:29 pm:    I've said this before, but pictures just don't do justice to obstacles... chu   Ron Posted on Wednesday, May 29, 2002 - 12:00 am:    You know if I had gone on that obsticle I would have tagged the front fender on the pole. Ron PS wheels don't look shinny white anymore   Barry Posted on Wednesday, May 29, 2002 - 12:43 am:    Now THIS is the time to break out the Bridges, eh Mike? Cheers! Barry   Glenn Guinto (Glenn) Posted on Wednesday, May 29, 2002 - 10:16 am:    John, my friend, go easy on that dremmel man! Ron, I think it's time to take out a can of rustoleum white and start sprayin! (lol) Kyle - "upped the ante"...LMAO Chu - I definitely agree with your statement! I hope this picture inspired some of you Disco owners who've never taken their ride this extreme yet. Go out there! Explore those mall parking lots! Don't be afraid. Your 60K Rover can handle it! And to the guys that have come before me, thanks! - this is the result of the inspiration you provided to me. LMAO! -glenn   Paul D. Morgan (V22guy) Posted on Wednesday, May 29, 2002 - 11:50 am:    60K? Man you got a deal! I paid at least 65K for mine.   KJ Posted on Wednesday, May 29, 2002 - 12:45 pm:    Scary tippy, Glenn! See you tagged a bicyclist, is his body on the roof rack, too? Karen   Kyle Posted on Wednesday, May 29, 2002 - 12:49 pm:    I hadnt noticed that KJ , I guess he chased the poor bastard clean up onto the curb to get him... Kyle   KJ Posted on Wednesday, May 29, 2002 - 01:00 pm:    I heard Glenn was screaming, "Lead, follow or get outta the WAY, Grandpa!" Karen   Carl E. Cedeholm (Cederholm) Posted on Wednesday, May 29, 2002 - 01:38 pm:    Damn Glen! You better be carefull doing hard core shit like that! Hate to see you roll your ride.   Roverine Posted on Wednesday, May 29, 2002 - 02:05 pm:    Wow, Glenn ... you know that is wild, verging onto just plain foolish and irresponsible. Lucky no one got hurt. (DOH! forgot about the poor biker!) Kim   Bill Leek Posted on Wednesday, May 29, 2002 - 02:27 pm:    Notice the adjacent terrain is empty of other vehicles. He must have busted-in on a "closed trail". Risky!   94Rover Posted on Wednesday, May 29, 2002 - 02:47 pm:    Naw Bill, that bus from the Suburu outback commercial with Crocadile Dundee is parked in the background waiting its turn to make the climb...notice the distance the 4x4bus needs to get up the speed just to make such a steep climb...talk about keeping your distance---   94Rover Posted on Wednesday, May 29, 2002 - 02:49 pm:    Wait, that could be Ho- posing for the next DiscoWeb banner ad featured at the top of this page......   niall forbes (Forbesn) Posted on Wednesday, May 29, 2002 - 03:36 pm:    Man, I can't believe you got up there without using any ticks. You must have diff locks?   Bill Leek Posted on Wednesday, May 29, 2002 - 04:07 pm:    Guess I missed Ho's Disco in the background. Maybe Glenn got a lift from one of those army helicoptors that airlifts tanks and stuff behind enemy lines. Cool!   Anonymous Posted on Wednesday, May 29, 2002 - 04:09 pm:    Hidden from the frame is a Jeep on stand by to recover, just in case...........!!!!
