Tomorrow taking the Shasta Bus in for a Dyno pull.
Part of the Niello Ranch Run weekend festivities includes an open house/lunch stop at UTI in Sacramento.
They are offering $20.00 Dyno pulls with the proceeds going to the Ride to Walk Foundation.
I've never seen a Bus on a dyno before. I'll be taking video.
I'd like to see 100HP at the rear wheels, but guess it to be more like high 70's. _________________

Your bus sounds good, cool vid! So if you're pulling the high 70s, my bus is probably 80, just a little more oomph on the hills. Interesting, thanks for posting. _________________

Since no one is listening, I'll just brag a little about Rachel and I highmarking the snowdrifts across Clear Creek Road in the bus, then highmarking them again on the Honda Trail 90. We hoped to be the first across the summit, but it ain't gonna happen this week....
eeeeej
y'know, if ya highcenter a 90 on a snow drift, it just sits there, upright?
funny. _________________ 60 Ghia

Hey All -
The Northwest Bug Run (June 2nd, 2012 in Woodburn, OR) is setting aside an area just for Shasta buses. I know that a few of the Southern Oregon guys are driving up for it. Just want to make sure everyone else knows about it.
All times are Mountain Standard Time/Pacific Daylight Savings Time Goto page Previous1, 2, 3 ... 330, 331, 332 ... 404, 405, 406Next
