Hey guys starting a new thread for all the guys wanting to roll this weekend.

Hey 300exTJ, we will be rolling out most likely after work on Friday. I'm taking off at 2:00 on Thursday to get my arm tatted down so not sure if I can leave early on friday as well. I'll let you know as the time gets closer. I don't mind anyone coming down with us.... Let em know if you want to meet up or something for the trip up.


Anyone else going let me know and we'll set something up.

Oh yeah, and look for the Avi.....

Or in a simple way.. Just take the 10 east for about 1 1/2 - 2 hours. Catch the exit to the 86.. only one way you can go. The first exit there is a jack n da box and gas station if you want to fill up there. keep going down the 86... Stay on there, it turns into the 78 without you even knowing. This will take you straight through brawley. After you leave Brawley, your last place to fill before Glamis you will see a sign that will say Glamis, turn left here. I believe it is the second left you can make. This road will take you to Glamis. The first road you come to is Gecko road (This is where I will be camped in Gecko Campground which I will explain how to get to after) If you keep going past Gecko Road you will come to a second street which is the Glamis Lookout point. The 3rd Street is the vendor row and the side entrance tot he washes. After this Strret you will go about 1/2 a mile more and see the Glamis store to your right side. If you camp in the washes you can go (looking towards the store) down on the left side of the store and follor the road that runs along the railroad tracks. As you come to each railroad wash it will be spray paint with which wash you are at.


Gecko Campground = Go onto gecko road, get your camping permit right after the ranger station. You just enter your money and the pass comes out. Keep going down Gecko until you see a sign that says Gecko Campground. The sign will be on your left hand side. make a left onto this road, pass the bathrooms and your in Gecko campground....


Good Luck.... Have fun... we'll be down Friday night... Think we are leaving at about 2 pm thou.... I'll let you know thou....

Her is the scene around camp. If you ever meet the guy here with the riding pants on, and he ask if you want to ride, Plan on the ride of your life. He rides the he** out of a dirt bike. Thats what I like about Glamis, they were camped next to us, we had a beer and went for a Killer ride.

OK... For sure I'm camping at Ghecko Campground and should be leaving Los Angeles about 2 pm so expect me at about 5-6 pm depending on traffic on friday. AFTERMARKET. Do you have any signs or anything that makes your area stand out. If not I'll try to make some signs but I'll be there after 300exTJ... Maybe 300ex or Aftermarket can block an area off for all of us... I'm going down with a friend and a few girls but we are meeting some others out there. We can just let them know where we will be camped...


One of the guys has a 440 Banshee done up sicc......


AFTERMARKET.. I wanna ride fooolll.... lol lol :D :D :D :D :D

Hey wicked,

I could do that, I'll leave Friday morning to the site and mark off a site for everybody. Also I put some signs leading to the site so Tazz could find his way at night to the site, i know it's gaonna be packed too.

I gots lots of wood so fire could be no problem but the more the merryer, right, hehe


Cause Tazz is teh pyro of fire starters, eehhe and make up bombs, hahahahahha

I'll have gas thou and tons of liqour... It's always packed right there on ghecko Campground... Try to find a spot facing the dunes if you can so we have room to blow shizznit up..... :eek: :eek: :eek: If we need more wood the mexican homie out near the washes always hooks us up sicc with wood for cheap.... He's already used to me running outta wood everyweekend..

Duner... do it up man..... get that thing ready....

I just sent my headrest out of my Avi to get two new 7 inch wide screens put in. hopefully they'll be done Thursday night so I can hook them up to my in dash 7 inch...... I guess we all wait to the last min.....

WOW!!!

I will be sure to find that in the corner of my eye, That rail is sweet.

Got some bad news from PARTS DIRECT. I won't be leaving till noon on Friday because those A** O's FU*KED up on my order for the 2nd time in a row.
But the pipe is comming in on Friday and I'll jet as soon as I get and Just put it on when I get there and rejet it too.

I hate that place 2 weeks and still have not gotten it right, I swear when I get my Pipe I'm gonna rasie hell when I give me a call, Dumb People over there
Cheap Prices but Stuiped Customer Service.

I'm freakin Pissed, ahhhhhhhhhhhhh It must be the heat in teh Nevada that is making them dumb, I swear

Str8Wicked
03-04-2003, 10:03 PM
Good luck man..


Take extra jet sizes and extra plugs just in case....

300exTJjeeper
03-05-2003, 12:06 AM
Yeah I already got it rejetted for a test run when the pipe comes on.
Running 128 main, and 38 pilot
Plus I got some extra sizes here too , hey maybe I might get lucky and hit it on the first time, hehehh

03-05-2003, 09:00 AM
When I did my 400 it was dead on with the first Jet...

300exTJjeeper
03-05-2003, 09:13 AM
I hope I have the same luck..

Str8Wicked
03-05-2003, 09:22 AM
The problem I had is I couldn't get my 400 to start up after re jetting. After about 2 days of messing with it I found out that my carb wasn't filling with gas, For some reason unless I put it on reserve for a couple seconds and start it while in reserve it would be fine. If I just put the gas in the ON position it seemed it wasn't filling the carb. Once it fills with the reserve position on thou I can switch to the ON position and it's fine.... Who the hell knows thou....

Leaving tomorow. Early........ Did I say EARLY?

Leaving tomorow. Early........ Did I say EARLY


Someone's lucky.... lol

Tazz300ex
03-05-2003, 02:26 PM
WOW early??? Someone is lucky.... I'll be one of the last to arrive.. Job and all.. I am going to try to leave alittle early though..4:30 or so.. leaving straight from work..putting up with the 91 till the 10 will be a headache.. 75 all the way.. should be there by 8 or little after depending on how many times I have to stop for a radiator check....water+hops=radiator checks....

Str8Wicked
03-05-2003, 02:39 PM
I know friday traffic and that's the main reason I'm taking off earlier....... Usually when I go fridays I will leave early, but if I'm not on my way before 4 I usually just wait till about 8 or 9 to leave. It's better than dealing with that rush hour traffic....

As it is I have to put up with it everyday going in and out of downtown LA....

Tazz300ex
03-05-2003, 02:48 PM
I live in Corona off of Green River so I fight the 91 everyday.. i work in Yorba Linda so I have figured if I leave before 5 i miss most of the traffic.. Its all good i'll be dialed and can just hit the road.. the trouble will be from about Surfus Club to the 15.. and probably through Riverside.. I'll make it......I meant 75-80 on the 10 and the 86..I'll make the lost time up somewhere.. got to watch for the po po though.....

I was thinking about going, but then I started reading the threads. It sounds like you guys are to rowdy for me. I like to go to bed early and wake up even earlier. I'll stick to Ogilby Rd. and the old, quite people.

AFTERMARKET
03-05-2003, 04:57 PM
The only real speed trap Is in between Westmorland and brawley. Other than that its 70-80 all the way.
Ill look for you guys in the gecko loop friday night on the Cart.

Dariusld,
Don't worry about these guys, I read their post all the time. I'm sure they won't be out of hand. Besides I don't want to be the only old guy there. Think about it, it's always good to have people to ride with.
