2024 P500 / P520 Takeover Ride

[futzin]

Extractors, yes.
Drill bits, @Hoosier1960's call . . . I don't have much.
We should be fine on bolts. We don't plan on reusing the originals.

[Hoosier1960]

Y’all still want me to bring some bits as well?

Never hurts to have extra

 

[Backwoods]

Never hurts to have extra

I’ll have them

 

[Jason W]

Ok, I will bring extractors and extra bolts

 

[futzin]

Ok, we officially have our Ride!

Outstanding member @Smittyp has very generously offered to be the Pied Piper for our group. A massive 14' KRX leading our Pesky P5s should be awe inspiring!

This ride is open to buggies other than P5s, though we may require allow everyone else to take a stint at the wheel of one! (A tradition dating back to 30 seconds ago)

He proposes (and has pre-run) a track west of I-75 with stops at Hembrees store for fried bologna sammiches, Brain Rock overlook, Mill Creek waterfall, concrete dam. Should be about 80 miles; we can omit Brain Rock and cut off 20 miles if needed.

Meet at Hardee's at 8:30 Friday morning.

The Pervasive P5 Posse shall prevail! Let's Ride . . .

(Smitty, feel free to correct or add as needed here . . . thanks again!)

The trails that we’ll be on are blue. But there is a couple of washed out spots

That's what I always tell them too lol

What's a ride without a few SPIMs? 😁

I would love to wheel that long travel P5

 

[futzin]

I would love to wheel that long travel P5

Let's go!

Yeah, you were encouraging me early on to add longer or arched A-arms.
After a recent head-to-head comparison, we concluded that it rides about the same as @CousinEddie's P1K5 with 814s shocks, but with more travel (less width, of course).

Hope you dont hold that against me

Not too much. 😁

Like the old Montrose song. Some like it wide and some like it deep

Not familiar with Montrose, wide, or deep . . . 😞

Looks like Cell Tower Rd is the quickest way to the Hardees from RRB?

 

[The Green Goat]

I plan on taking the paved road in the morning. Stinking Creek> Right on Howard Baker hwy> Left on old state hwy 63 > Left on Titus Hollow rd > Right on Howard Baker hwy > Right into Hardee's. That's the street legal version, anyways.

I don't think I've ever been on Cell Tower. Not sure how fast you can navigate that.

You are not familiar with the group Montrose? Sammy Hagar as well as Davey Pattison were lead singers. The song is I got the fire.

 

[Jason W]

I am not street legal tagged, is that a no go or just screw it

 

[Mudwisel]

Screw it is always a safe answer. You will be fine with no tag. Most dont have one

 

[trigger]

Not familiar with Montrose

You're kidding right? Ronnie and a young Sammy! Must've heard Rock Candy? 🤘
