Fricken idiot

Buddy back in town for our night of fire drag race that took place last night. I made a hit in the car fri. night after the car died on buddy the pass before to see if it was worth double entering. I felt comfortable in his car and light (reaction time) was where i wanted to be for hopping in a new to me car but told him id wait until sat to make the descion.

Sat came, weather was very hot, very humid with real feel over 106* so last thing i wanted to do was suit up in my 3 layer monkey suit and bake.for multie passes lol, so just decided to be pit bitch/crew cheif. This race brings all our buddies out so its a great get together, but a friends friend ended up in our camp and was drinking like his life depended on it…all day in the heat and sun never coming under the canopys with the fans we had going…musta been around 6pm a.criend grabbed me, you need to get over there, somebody said that guy isnt doing good at all, puking, his nose wont quit bleeding…so we ran across the road to our friends truck where this was all going down, was told hed had open heart surgery not too long ago and was on blood thinners, and when he drinks like this his nose starts bleeding and wont stop. I tried calling the tower to get the safety crew over but nobody answered so we jumped in buddies rzr and raced over to the ticket shack and had sherri call the safety crew to our pit. The track crew are just volunteer firemen and paramedics and the 2 guys on quads showed up and quickly.radioed the onsite ambulance to call hospital for real ambulance. All they did was ice pack back of his neck and worked on keeping him from leaking out…his nostrils looked like 2 tiny faucets just slowly running blood… non stop, youd have thought looking at him he got mugged with a knife, blood drenched both arms, his chest, pooled up on the front of his shorts sitting on the tail gate….and best part, his son says he does this 3-5 times a month…wtf.

So we just blocked.off both ends of the road to keep looky loues away while big ambulance was in route. They showed up and kept asking, telling him he needs to go with them to get saline pushed to rehydrate and get bleeding under control, being the idiot he was he wasnt going to be talked into it, so ambulance left saying theres nothing they can do if hes refusing treatment.

They finally.got bleeding to.slow and eventually stop but while all this was going on the entire shows with thousands of spectators and racers had to stop to deal with this moron. Just cant understand how somebody, on blood thinners told to stop drinking can keep doing this and putting bis family through that. Later i asked his buddy why dont he just go choke on a bullet and save his family the pain of watching him habitually do this shit all the time, be faster and easier on everybody.

Just snapped this after track crew got there to show the wife the fun she was missing.

Truck bed riser

I am looking into making me a truck bed riser so I can load my 850 xp in the bed of my 2010 Ram quad cab. I found a product on line called the Rizerback. This is a cool product but WAY too much money for what little engineering went into the finished product. Does anyone have one of these to send me specific details on measurements. I will build/weld it myself.

JD boot issue.

I’m looking for a new pair of boots to replace my surplus military boots. soles cracked on them letting water in. I tired on some Georgia, Chippewa, Carolina boots they all fit terribly, only ones that fir good are Red wing loggers. But I got an issue with my logger boot buy, I looked up good year welt boots and the only ones I found are these Irish Setters. But I’ll post some pictures of the issue with what I’ll have when I get my boots, I looked up low heel boots too and none of them were re-solable. And the Irish Setters are priced good.

See if you can see the issue I’m talking about here is my current boots, and imagine logger boots on my 4-wheeler. But I think I can raise the shifter up and get away with it, had to order in the Setters so not gonna be able to try em on this week.
