I was in Glamis the 26-28 of Dec. and man did I have some fun... Not to busy but not empty... Ended up scratching my roof on the way back from olds duning the Avalanche... Might have been the liquid courage or just the Glamis fever but I was off-roading the truck and hit some tree branches I figured I would clear but didn't... Had fun anyways thou... I'll have sopme pics today or tomorrow...

Actually I was following a friends jeep who made it under the branches barely. My truck is way higher than his but it was to later and I was going way to fast to stop... The branches ended up barely scraping my hood (scratches came off with buffing), than shattered on my front windshield (thank god my windshield was cool) and scraped the roof int he front a little than shattered the rest of the branches on my roof rack and lights... One of the lights fell back but I just re adjusted them and they were fine...

But like my pops always says, don't off-road if you can't afford to repair what you break.... lol


On a better note I had tons of fun with my Avi and my 400.... Finally was able to mess around with my 400 the way I wanted to since I put on my exhaust and re jetted... God it was fun...


Ended up seeing a girl flip a bombader on herself at Olds the night of the 27th but she was fine except the fact that she pissed her pants..... WOOOOPS..... lol... Saw a banchee take a straight dive off a 30 ft high razor back and ended up getting put in the ambulance even thou the paramedics wanted to air lift him. Supposedly the helicoptor was to far away but I figure he must have had some major damage done... The banshee was friggin totalled from the tank forward... Go to show you it's always smart to look before you go.....


All in All I had a blast and am eithier going up the weekend of the 11th or the weekend of the 18th again....

Str8Wicked,

Nice looking quad...neat and clean;)

Tell me about those side panels...what are they and where did you get them...
Is the rest of the plastic stock or aftermarket?

JoeX, they are Maier silver plastics. The rest of the yellow is stock. I had to cut new holes and slits into the Maier to make them work with the stock plastics but it did fine.


Thanks infantry317

how much was the CT slip on? It looks good.. plus I like the fact that you can put a supertrapp end on it too..

I paid like 125 on E-bay but I do not have the supertrap ends or spark arrestor which I need to get from CT. I went out this weekend to a local spot and they denied the entrance of my 400 since it didn't have a spark arrestor so it was a hassel but I guess they were gonna catch it sooner or later...
